So that will be tomorrow. Well actually that is me always-blunt. I always just say what I am thinking. Well I have decided that tomorrow I am going to ask a guy out. He has no idea I am going to do it. In fact, I am not even sure he knows who I am. We don't talk. I mean that. I met him about a month ago at a training. We have the same job, but we never see each other. Our groups never cross paths. He approached me, randomly at the fireworks. I have thought he was attractive since I met him at training. He is tall, just like I like my boys to be. He has a degree, means hes going places (even though he does work at a summer camp, but hey I have a degree and I work at a summer camp). He works with kids all day long so he can't be that much of an ass hole. He seems like a fun person.
So yeah I am just going to go up to him at work tomorrow and ask him if he would like to hang out with me sometime. I guess I feel like I have nothing to lose. I mean, I never see him at work anyways, so if he rejects me, well....I don't come in contact with him. And, we hardly know each other, so its not like my feelings will be hurt. Rejection sucks, but I am used to it. However, I don't think I have ever asked a guy out before. Not a guy I don't really know. I think I tell guys like over the internet or on the phone, yeah we should meet up sometime. But never in person. I guess I am turning over a new leaf. Taking chances and hoping for the best!
Wish me luck! I'll let you know what happens!
Ps. Warped Tour on Friday! I can't wait to see my homeboys, The Academy Is...!
How are you celebrating the 4th of July?
well since I went out last night, I got to sleep well, and sleep in. It felt good to sleep until almost 11AM ( I usually wake up for work at either 6AM or 7AM depending on if I have class after work that day). However, I do have to work today. But before work, I attempted to spend a few hours analyzing research studies that I then have to write lit. reviews for, for my own research proposal study. I am a slacker and it is catching up with me big time. I didn't get as far as I hoped because now I have to go get ready for work. Work today is to stand by the bathrooms (I was told, obviously I did not choose) for 4 and a half hours. Why? I am not sure. I was told to make sure the bathrooms are cleaned (yuck) and well stocked (ugh) oh and make sure no one around me is lighting of fireworks. I am excited to see fireworks, but standing by the bathrooms, alone, with no friends or anyone, BORING! I guess the brightside is that I am getting paid. But honestly, at this point, I would rather stay home, not make any money, and work on getting these two lit. reviews done. Because now I have to finish them tonight. I will be pulling an all night (on a Friday night, go figure) because my partner for this proposal and I are meeting at 7 30 AM tomorrow to work on the entire proposal. I told her it shouldn't take us long, once we get the lit. reviews out of the way. I hope that I am right. Because she seems very stressed about her life, and I don't want to cause any problems to make her life worse. I think I will feel better once this proposal is done. After that tomorrow, I will be working on an assignment for one class, a presentation for that same class, and a huge project for that class. That is all the plan for tomorrow ( I guess I got off topic from my 4th of July plans, but seeing as that for me it's almost over, I might as well get into the rest of the weekend). Then on Sunday I plan on working on a whole other project/presentation for another class.
So as you can see, this is the weekend of projects. I have no other time, so I have no other choice in putting it off anymore. It all has to be done this weekend.
Well I should quit typing and get on with it.
Happy 4th ya'll!
I never knew it until I one of my classes talked about stress and how we build it up on ourselves, and I thought, yep, stress is definitely a motivator of mine. It is evident in the fact that I will procrastinate until I can no longer take the fact that something is due and I have yet to start it, the stress of getting it done on time motivates me to get it done!
I have been putting off this research project for one my classes for quite some time. I have been lazy and sitting on my ass, telling myself I could be working on it. Well now that I am about to start my new job, and this project is due next week, I figured its about time I just buckle down and do it. And do it I have!
For this project I have to:
- find 6 peer reviewed articles no earlier than from 2000 relating to my topic
- read those 6 articles.
- write a summary thing about each of them
- compile a 2 page synthesis about my readings
- create some kind of 20 minute presentation to my cass
- create some kind of activity for my peers to do as part of my presentation
Between reading and writing about the two articles for that day, I am doing some major spring cleaning and getting rid of junk.
Pretty much the goal is that by Sunday night, I will only have one huge project left to work on. The end of the semester is almost near, but then as soon as its finished, I start my summer semester--with THREE classes! If everything works out, I will be a full time (meaning 8 hours 5 days a week) summer camp counselor. On three of those 5 days, I will have to drive straight to class ( an hour away) for class from 5pm-9pm. My summer is going to be crazy busy, but definitely worthwhile! I am used to working and being in class over the summer. Summer has always been about getting school and work in as much as possible. Fun. Umm....I'll have fun when im dead?!?? IDK!
