I got a response from the coordinator in Germany - she's sending off the application form today for me. She was apologetic for not getting back to me sooner about it (she'd been away), and was really nice and said she was really looking forward to hearing back from me. I like that. ^_^
I haven't heard back yet from the people in Vermont. but that should take a while - it's all done through the mail.
I haven't heard back from Rogers.. I guess I didn't get those jobs.
I haven't heard back from the government job I applied for either. .. that's ok though.
I decided I'm going to get my septum pierced on April 10th. Because I think those are incredibly sexy when they suit someone.. I think it would look good on me. I'd make my own jewelry for it. Anyone want to go with me?
By the end of April, *ALL* of my debts will be gone! 2600$ of debt paid since August 2002. not bad.
I'm getting 700$ back in taxes this year. mmmmm
** Dinner party this weekend! South-East Asian theme? Friday or Saturday night? (because I think I might want to go to 101 this weekend - the show is highly reccommended by Ross). so.. would Friday night be ok for everyone?

maybe as a result of the vitamins I've been taking, the amount and quality of food I've been eating, all the orange juice, the excercise, the focus, and the stress :
I got some motivation, and I applied for some jobs.
Vermont Youth Conservation Corps - in Vermont. (250-300$us/week)
Girl Scout councellor - in Germany. (300$/week)
Gardener - gov, for a local museum. (10-11$/hour)
and two positions in Rogers.
hopefully I'll get either the job in Germany or the States, because they're only for about 5 weeks, and room&board; are paid. ^_^ and I also hope to get one of the jobs with Rogers that I applied for - that way if I do go to another country for a few weeks, I'll have a job when I get back. The gardening job might be pretty sweet too.
I hope I hear back from them soon.

it's all good now. everything is back to normal - and I had an amazing day and a wonderful heart to heart talk. I don't think I've felt this good in months.

anyone want to hear what I have to say about what's going on in my life? I mean what's really going on? anyone want to just chat or talk?

(yep! that's right!! I have a phone again!!!)

I think I am going crazy.
The stress is making me sick to my stomach all the time.
Only a month and a half to go.
*shudder*
I'm sure most of you know about the horror that is my room-mate situation. I almost feel like crying.
I'm only writing about something this personal because it's helping to calm me down somewhat. I will probably delete this post in a bit.
I awoke to Wuji in the shower. for an hour. singing and whistling. The floor is covered in water again... and there's water damage on the bottom of the wooden cabinet now.
I've eaten nothing more than 1 potato, 1 bowl of miso soup, 1 plate of food things (dinner party - that's all I had to eat all day), 1 shawarma plate, 1 bowl of soup made with lo-bok (it kind of sucks)... this is since Thursday evening.
Stress makes me lose my appetite.
it was at it's worst on Friday.
I've been looking into Aryuveda.. and I'm really falling for it. I am completely a Vata. I plan on following what the book says is a good diet for Vatas, to reduce stress and balance me a little more - with all the room-mates and school stress and "relationship" stress, I've become totally out of balance (in terms of vata) and it really shows. I think I've lost weight again. I generally cope very well with stress, but only for short periods of time.. this has gone on too long.
I .. don't know what to do.

mmmm Backini.
go - check him out.
amazing stuff.
I got a pay-raise. 25 cents. ...fuck you Opinion Search. 1000 hours of "work" and I get a 25 cent raise.. that works out to an additional 12 dollars on my pay cheque for every 54 hours of work. that's ... that's a martini.
haha
actually I'm quite pleased with myself and I'm really not upset at all. I just like pretending to be upset sometimes. haha.
I'm in a very wierd mood today. For the first time in about ..1.5 months I have more than 25$ to get me through two weeks for food and everything else (after rent and half of my bills). I still can't afford a phone this time, but, I can pay a small part of my Rogers bill.. ooohyeah -
Going out tonight to celebrate.
The dinner party is still on for Saturday - anyone can come over whenever they want on Saturday - I don't really care about specific times. (in fact, for all you people who *do* care about the difference between dinner at 5:00 sharp and 7:30 or midnight, you're crazy! 12:35 dosen't mean anything at all - .. yes, it means something to employers. and that bugs me. I wish I could just go into work when I wanted to every day, and leave when I wanted to every day, as long as I ended up working more than a certain amount of hours or whatever by the end of the week_I could use punch cards.. yah I like that idea. Throwing out my alarm clock last year was one of the best things I've ever done in my life. you people who really care about what time it is are nuts) ~_^
Clockshop by Backini will be played Saturday.
now. off to Chinatown I go.
*big grin*

the past three days have been tiring.
I have been feeling drained and emotional - and still grieving over Nigel.
(for those of you who met him, Nigel passed away on Thursday morning)
I have more things to write about, I've been doing a lot, moving things around, had a dinner party, got a real desk, things like that. but most of it is just complaints about the new room-mate.
any ideas on how to approach a 30-something year old man about not peeing on the floor? (this isn't the occaisional splash or whatever, as I've heard can happen - this is every single day)
downloaded a new Dungeon Siege map - Hyperborea. It always crashes. touch monsters, and it crashes (but it seems random as to which monsters will crash it if you touch them).. which of course makes it impossible to play. I e-mailed the guy who made it - he said it's usually caused by insufficient ram. ...... grr. yah no shit - when you're trying to run it with 128 or something. I have 256. not ideal, but definately able to handle something like Dungeon Siege. so.
my review: retarded map. Even when you can play it, and it dosen't crash, it's not very good.
