It's been so long since I've been here. I've been avoiding it. I'm at a standstill. I've been stressed about the end of the semester, I have been completely wiped out because of bills, and I haven't been eating right. I haven't eaten anything carby, but I'm not eating enough and I'm certainly not eating enough vegetables. To top it all off, I lost my job today. So it's almost Christmas and I don't have a paycheck anymore. Just like that.
I think losing my job is a sign that I need to concentrate on finishing my degree rather than settling for a career that isn't anywhere near the path I want to take. I'm almost done with undergrad, and if I find something with hours that will work around my classes, I can graduate a lot faster than I could working 8-5 and going to night school. My plan is to finish the undergrad, then get my graduate degree so I can teach journalism on the college level. Where I'm at, it won't take long to get that.
I may have an internship at the university lined up, because my adviser is amazing. I'll find out, but I have to wait through the weekend, and that's hell.
Sorry for the long whine-fest. I'm at that "feeling sorry for myself" point of acceptance. After I mope for a little while, I'll do what I've gotta do to make ends meet. Thanks for listening :)
