I'm starting the last two weeks of work at Cato. I've been there for 3 years, even though I only worked on weekends and during breaks while I was at college.
Wow. 3 years. I don't believe I will miss it too much, but it was a great first job. I've made some good friends, learned a lot about responsibility, and greatly improved my people skills. I'm glad I had the opportunity to work there.
But now is the time for me to move on to bigger things in my life. With any luck, I will find an internship for next spring/summer. I doubt I can find anything this fall. I've already tried looking online and found nothing. But that's okay, because one semester free of work and only school will be good for me. It may be my last chance to enjoy work-free school days.
This is a boring post, but oh well. It's not like anyone reads this thing anyway.

Sylvia Plath
"Please let him come, and give me the resilience & guts to make him respect me, be interested, and not to throw myself at him with loudness or hysterical yelling; calmly, gently, easy baby easy. I am so hungry for a big smashing creative burgeoning burdened love: I am here; I wait." Sylvia Plath

Summertime Blues
It's really quite sad when the only romance you can come by is through a book.
Yes, I am know. I'm only 20. But a little fun would be nice, right? Nights at the movies, hand holding in the sunshine. My coworkers seem to think I, quote, "need a man." It was funny to listen to their conversation about me and my prospects. "She needs a good-bad guy." "I picture her with a really tall, kind of jock guy who is smart... yeah, a good-bad guy." It's nice to know someone out there thinks I need someone.
My family just says, in response to me telling them that no, there is no guy, "you don't need a boyfriend right now. Focus on your school. That's what you need to do." I am so sick of hearing that.
My best friend is desperate, too. She did the eharmony free communication weekend, just to see how that worked. She just might be joining the site, paying for it... I told her to tell me how that worked out, I might need to join, too. Heck, nothing else is working.
