Know what? I'm having a kickass week!

And it's not even Saturday yet!

I found out I have a definite A in my Criminology class and I am so close to having a 4.0 this semester.

I got a fantastic mid-year evaluation at my internship, and my supervisor even asked about me working there after the internship is done. Also she said great things about me to the faculty liaison when she visited.

I get a fat paycheck directly deposited tomorrow.

And the nice boy who I found out (after meeting him last week) was interested in me asked for my phone number tonight after seeing him again.

Fingers crossed that nothing at work pisses on my good week. Whee!

Ah, I see the universe has balanced out my crappy week by giving someone an exceptional one!

Congrats on all the happy stuff! A 4.0 is something to dance about, and a hell of an achievement. And the rest is good too, but as a student in the midst of finals, my attention went straight to the grades portion of your post.

Boys? What are boys? Haven't seen one in weeks!

Well, I knew that had to be short-lived. I did in fact get pissed off by a snotty and bossy customer today within the first hour of work. I had a confrontation with one of my managers that brought me to tears but we resolved it quickly and both felt better for talking. Then later at home we had a blackout on the street for about a minute and it fucked up my computer. Dad was a complete asshole in his attempt to 'help' me and I wound up crying again. A lot. The computer is now fixed thanks to the nice man at Dell who helped over the phone. And now I'm totally losing my voice.

What a helluva day.

Happy Holidays!

The last several weeks of my life have been crap! But I keep on smiling because that's all anyone ever cares about! Put on a happy face and pretend like nothing's wrong and people will like you! Complain a little bit, and suddenly you have no friends!

Glad to hear about your GPA, though. Make sure you kick my ass next semester so I actually study/go to class.

I'm glad your week was going so well.

My week has been a rollercoaster...

Good:This is my last week of school, and then I'm DONE! That's it! No more! Finished!

Bad: I'm having a hard time on my Victorian Literature class. I'm really worried about passing that class, and if I don't pass, I don't graduate

Good: I got cast in The Bacchae!

Bad: I have an itty bitty part in the play. I'm gonna have to spend two months rehearsing. The time investment will make it harder to get a full-time job. I'll have to register for open university for a semester because I have to be a registered student to participate, and I have no idea how much that's gonna cost

Good: I met someone, who is really sweet and funny and way smart. Every time I talk to her, it makes me smile. And she's single!

Bad: I feel like I took things too fast, maybe messed everything up as a result. Now I feel like I'm in Emotional Limbo. My heart feels all topsy-turvy and I have finals next week. Finals aren't going to be too bad, I'm doing well in most classes (Except the Victorian Literature class ). Its just...I just can't keep my mind off this person. I don't want to admit I'm obsessed...I just have strong feelings I haven't had in a long time. And for all I know, it might go the same way every other romance for me has gone.
