now that I'm home, I think from now on I'm going to introduce myself to new people like this:
Hello, my name is not good enough, how may I disappoint you today?

I won't really, but that's how I feel sometimes. Had another interview today and they guy said I'm 90% sure of a job. They have 5 open positions, so here's hoping. Nothing special, just a hotel job, but it will be a paycheck with my name on it...

That's great!  A job is a job, and especially with the current economy... |

I was having a bad day this morning. Turned in a homework assignment that I knew would be handed back to me later with a horrible grade on it. I've got an exam tonight and two more exams Friday. Even thinking about the exams on Friday is stressing me out, because I know one of this is going to be horrible. I was planning to skip a class today because David Cook tickets were going onsale at 11am and I needed to be on ticketmaster when it happened, lol. It was a presale and someone had gotten the password. I thought I was skipping one class in which we were doing nothing, but for some reason I didn't realize til this morning that I actually had to skip a DIFFERENT class, that I really shouldn't have been skipping. I worried about that and it depressed me some more. So, I sit at this computer in a lab on campus. It's 10:59 and I'm hitting refresh over and over. And over. I hit it a last time and saw it had started, so at the speed of light (my version of the speed of light) I entered the information and hit enter. Then I tried to enter the dumb code words. I couldn't read the first set of words, lol, so I had to pick try another. I finally entered those and hit enter. I wait....the screen comes up.....and.....I have FRONT ROW seats staring me in the face. Front row, center section, just left of center. I stare in disbelief at the screen for a few seconds. Check and double check the seating chart to see if it could possibly be the seats I'm thinking and they are. I buy them. I freak out. Well...there were people around, so I try not to freak out. I text my friend to tell her. She freaks out. We are both like ;D  The only downfall is that this show is on 11/18 and the other show I'm going to is on 11/20, and I have better seats for the first one than the second one lol. I wish it was the other way around. Still can't believe I managed to get front row...really wasn't expecting that. I went on my DC message board and see that no one else did! I don't know how that happened. Some people got 2nd row, but no one else got any seats in the middle section except one person. Weird. |

That is freaking incredible, Breann! Congratulations!

I just realised that I graduate in three weeks, almost to the day (Oct 21). And then after that, it's go-go gadget adulthood. Scary, but I can't wait!

Thanks!! I can't wait. He actually scheduled another date near here then it was promptly canceled a few days later. Not sure why. Actually, they scheduled a show for him in the same town near the beginning of the tour and that one was also canceled. Maybe they can't make up their minds about whether or not they really want to play there. lol.
In other news...I'm pretty sure my lab partners hate me. lol. I can't do anything right. We were counting plates (colonies in petri dishes) and one of them was looking at them, then asked me to look at it. I didn't see much, so I asked the other person if she wanted to look at it and she looked at me like I was stupid. I was like, ok, SHE just asked ME to look at it and that was ok, but when I ask someone else to look at it, I'm an idiot.
THEN the other day in lab one of them spilled alcohol all over another girl's lab notebook and completely ruined it. They laughed and laughed. I was like, holy crap, she's going to have to do the whole thing over! I guess they were all ok with this. Then the other day I forgot to look at some of our results for the lab...it was a really small thing...but they looked like they thought I was the biggest loser they had ever encountered. I was like omg, someone makes a mistake and ruins the girl's notes for the whole semester so far and that's ok, but I forget to look at one measly little tube and it's awful. I don't know what to do. I don't know why my mistakes are so much worse then theirs. I can't wait for this class to be over...
Sorry about the rant. I just always seem to run into people like this, who seem to dislike me for no apparent reason. I never understand it. Then when I try to talk to someone about it (like my sister) and ask what I could be doing wrong they just tell me I'm imagining it. It's like, yeah, I think I realize when people are acting like they are ok with me and when they're not. It's just really annoying. *sigh*

Aw, Breann. :\
Your lab partners sound really mean.
I sort of understand the frustration about missing a lab result, though. I've worked with girls who seem to think all they need to do is sit there, and I'll do all the work, and when I ask them to check some results, they pretty much just ignore me. ::shrugs:: Whatever.

I just always seem to run into people like this, who seem to dislike me for no apparent reason. Maybe they're just jealous you got front row seats to a David Cook concert  Linh, sorry about yesterday - right when we got to the Collective Soul climax lol - let's just say MSN's being a pwoper bitch. Koen, I think you have an appointment with/at Diss. A lot of my friends felt the tremors (both yesterday and this morning) from the Indonesian earthquake. It appears I slept through all of it. Hah. It has also been raining heavily frequently too. Should I start to pack my LH cds in a safe box just in case? I just managed to pass through the first major hurdle of senior year in college, about a million more to go.  |

Maybe they're just jealous you got front row seats to a David Cook concert Hahaha, you know, I might assume that's the reason for it if they even knew I had the tickets, lol. But they don't.  I've emailed the whole group and one person specifically over the past 2 days and I have gotten no data back from them. If they don't send it by tonight I'm going to have to make up numbers and hope the person grading it doesn't compare my answers with my lab group's. Watch them send it tomorrow after it's too late...that would not surprise me at all. |

I already do.
