Production

Yesterday I went to the park with said Aussie. He was nice and told me things about life down under. No, we didn't kiss or anything. It was nice to spend an afternoon with someone new, even though I am not interested. We got burritos at a truck in the burg. So good.

After that, I went to work and put some finishing touches on my naked bike ride video. Next, I went to my orientation to be a certified television producer. I think it is really cool that MNN has free classes to get certified, but the people who go there are really weird. Luckily, I met this cool girl (Alison) from the UK, who I quickly became friends with.

I came home to Nathan and Colleen watching Gattaca. All in all a good day.

A Gorgeous Day at the Park

Yesterday was Thirsty Thursday at the park. Carrie brought balloons, a watermelon and pasta salad, I brought some guacamole and chips and a whole bunch of people showed up and hung out. At one point I think there were about 25 people. It was a gorgeous day outside and my back got sunburned. There are a butt load of pics, however none of them are on my camera, thus they are soon to come. I am so happy that the feeling of summer is here!

McCarren

Yesterday was my one day to relax. I went with Carrie to McCarren park and met up with a bunch of people. We had a picnic of sorts and people watched. Every time I go there and look for a spot on the grass to lay out, I feel like I am looking for a spot at the beach. It is almost beach season! I can't wait.

Today was the first time I didn't bring my laptop to school in a while. I was pretty bored. I guess I have kind of been slacking in the classroom lately, but I feel like it is mostly due to researching for my upcoming papers. I feel like I have 3 jobs right now: Classwork, paper writing and trying to find a job for the summer. I still haven't heard back from any of the jobs to which I have been applying.

I guess you could say that I am kind of in the dumps. I am broke and busy and tired and ... ja know? I am excited to go to Maine this weekend, but I know I will have to get a shit ton of work done up there as well. It never ends! Well, actually, it does..in about 3 weeks. Hooray!

I am just really glad that I have such good friends to pick me up when I am feeling crappy. Last night Carrie drove me home before I made an ass of myself, today Kim took me out to Sea for dinner and Jason makes me laugh on the daily, and Kristen is always down for a good chat. So I guess everything doesn't suck.

See?! Who says writing in a journal isn't like therapy?
