No change yet

So I'm to find out today whether I have been invited to a phone interview or not. I have been checking the website since 7:00 this morning, and I have yet to see a change in status. In my heart of hearts, this tells me that I did not get it. But there is still a part of me that says "SHUT UP! You don't know we didn't get it. You're just preparing yourself for the worst because you're used to being shafted. But you keep those hopes high! We could still get an interview. And when we get on the phone, we'll blow them away!" This is the optomistic part of me, who believes that everyone has some good in them and that Santa (the person not the idea) still exists and that nothing bad could really ever permanently affect me. She usually is out for everyone to see most of the time, but sometimes, the pragmatic, practical comes out in full force. They're really battling it out in me, and I really just want to know. What do you think the non-change in status yet means?


Edit: Found out. Didn't get it. Moving on.

I love Tuesdays......NOT

So I turned in my TFA application on Thursday, after a minor freakout in which I realized why I don't take chances. I'm afraid of losing. Which is kinda sad to think about because I always thought that I was the kind of girl to take chances without worrying. But apparently I am not. SO i freaked out, scared my mother, and then submitted my application. Now I have to wait until tomorrow to find out if I am invited to have a phone interview, which will take place this weekend, and then I'll find out in two weeks if I get a real interview. Scared much? Yeah I am!

So Much, Too Much!

There is so much CRAP going on this week. First off, my Teach for America application is due on Friday. But really I'm not that worried about it anymore because I got all my written stuff donw. It just needs to be edited and I'm in business. So cross your fingers for that! Then I have the second part of my unit due tomorrow. At least I think it's due tomorrow, Steve keeps putting stuff up on Blackboard and not explaining it. Have I mentioned how much I LOVE school? Cause I hate it. With a fiery passion. Then I have to figure out how to get three shifts covered this month and FIVE shifts covered during the Christmas holidays. Because my stupid fin' manager won't let me take a leave of absence like I always have. I hate asking people to do things for me. It's annoying and it puts other people at disadvantages. I would much rather be taken off the freakin schedule like I have been the last two years. But WHATEVER! I'm supposed to be working on my assessment right now before I go to a meeting and then work, but I can't for the life of me find what all I am supposed to have! So now I have to wing it, and I HATE DOING THAT! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

What a WEEK!

So, apologies for not updating for a while. I've been crazy busy for the last week. It all started last Friday. We went out for mine and Steph's birthday, and it was crazy fun! We started at the Rio for drinks, and Zack surprised me! It was awesome! I haven't seen him in forever! and he just appeared with Austin! It was great! Then we went to Six Lounge and then to Fado's and then Jackie and I met up with her boyfriend Drew and went to Red Eye Fly to see my friend Mark's show. And my friend John, who I haven't seen in like YEARS was there!! I was sooooooooo excited. Did I mention that I had a sore throat all day? Because I did and then I yelled and I lost my voice. And it's still not back. So Saturday and Sunday were weird because I didn't have a voice. But on Sunday, we surprised Steph with a birthday brunch. She had no idea and it was soooo much fun! THEN on Monday, the day of days, I turned 23. Because we celebrated on Friday, all I did on Monday was go to dinner at the Rio. We had dinner, and they sang to me! It was so much fun! It was just a great day. Tuesday was Steph's birthday, so we had pizza and watched movies. It was good fun. And then yeah the rest of the week went by so fast, and then yesterday was Halloween! I dressed up as a wealthy gentleman, and me and Jackie and Drew went to a bunch of different parties. They were all pretty lame, but we still had fun. and our costumes were AWESOME!! Jackie was a bee and Drew was a male stripper. It was great. But now, I'm tired and we still have the rest of the weekend to get through. AND it's the Tech/Texas game. AND my Teach for America application is due next Friday. I'm scared about it, and I don't know if I am gonna be able to do it. SIGH. hope everything's good with everybody else!
