I'm still here!

I know I haven't been posting as much on here lately, and I think it has a lot to do with the fact that most of my classes are at night this semester.  I may have the added luxury of getting Fridays off but I also have to read a bazillion pages (which I totally do, kind of, ish), watch movies outside of class, and do small papers.  I feel like I should devote at least two times a week to this, though, and I hope more updates will be coming soon.

I have to write an op-ed piece for my journalism class, something I'm really interested in, because we get to choose the subject.  So many choices are just waiting out there!  I have no idea what I'm going to do, but I think I need to hurry, considering it's due Tuesday.  (Seriously, if anyone has an idea, let me know)

I'm starting to get really worried about ever finding a job, too.  I know I had this problem last semester, too, but this time I went in prepared.  I went to about ten different job sites to fill out applications, and I did them all on the same day.  I went in with a smile, and hoped for the best.  I even managed to scored an on the spot interview for the pet store.  Still, I wait for a phone call, and it's driving me nuts.  Why is it so hard to get a job at the mall?  Is it really that competitive that no one will give me a chance?  I hate the economy and it's current situation.  It's not doing me any good.

On the plus side, I realized how amazing the school pool is.  That has nothing to do with my unemployment status, but today my friends and I hurried over and dived right in.  The water didn't feel cold and people were there just to have a good time.   Who knew how amazing swimming in winter would feel?  I'm sure it's something we will continue as the semester goes by.  

Hopefully, I will be posting more than what I have been.  I just hate writing about stupid subjects (even though today's is pretty bad).  I forget a lot too.  Keep checking in, though.  Maybe you'll be in for a surprise.
