Feliz Navidad
Yes, I’m still pensando en español, thanks to the final exam I had tonight. Actually, it wasn’t that big of a deal, because I only had to get five points out of fifty to maintain my current average. It’s really nice to take a final exam that you’ve prepared for when there isn’t a whole lot of pressure…

Me: 1 Life: 3
Or maybe, “one step forward counteracting three steps backward.” Today was going well this morning. Really, it was. I talked to Rachel for a little while, ate breakfast, and got all kinds of questions answered in my Chem class. I felt so prepared for Wednesday’s exam, I thought about taking it early. Yesterday, I spent quite a bit…

Paul, Go Die
Paul is one of those few people who can disappear without a trace. He’s also one of those guys whose name is invoked with every question I ask about my hiring with CompUSA. As many of you know, I got the hire confirmation with this store quite some time ago, yet for some reason I still…

Rachel and I and a few other members of her immediate family…

Two Weeks Notice
That’s what I gave to Giant yesterday. I work tomorrow, and a few hours on Friday, and then I can hang up my red Giant shirt for good. And exchange it for a red CompUSA shirt, because I got hired with them. I’m going to be working sales floor instead of cashiering which is a major improvement. Especially…

Terrible
That’s the word that describes my day right now. I’m supposed to be working on my composition paper, but I’m going to be up for a while doing that and I need to rant about a few things. Usually I try to maintain a positive outlook on things. After all, there are a whole lot of people…

This Was Going to Be a Cool Title
…until I forgot it. But I’m going to stop being so predictable in this journal. There are all kinds of stresses and things in life, and if you’re always thinking about them, you prevent yourself from really enjoying life. There’s nothing wrong with caring about that stuff; in fact, it’s a requirement. However, sometimes you just have to…
