i think the saddest people always try their hardest to make people happy

because they know what it’s like to feel absolutely worthless

and they don’t want anybody else to feel like that

I’m in a sappy mood, so I’m going to go ahead and say that I love these girls. They deal with my snarky, realist/pessimistic attitude and weird humor all the time and keep me sane(ish).

Things I do to myself that I dislike

Thu, 16 May 2013 17:59:00 -0400

Get anxious about asking for help, and then never do, and then end up realizing that I was being stupid and really how hard is it to send an email desperately asking for a job?
Procrastinate
Over think everything
Let myself become invested in things that are likely temporary
Feeling like my ideas of doing something independent and worthwhile are silly and insane and doubting myself.

sappy shit.

I got my first job offer for a volunteer position out in Yosemite National Park tracking chipmunks and while I’m happy about it I”m also scared shitless at the prospect of being so far away and so in the middle of no where. And so, I don’t know what to do.

There’s just these tiring days full of small disappointments
more rejection than satisfaction and all I’d like to do is feel secure.
No one is holding my hand right now but I’d at least like to know
that the people I love love me back and that
trust is a two way street and that

Good things

I ran a half marathon in under two hours (almost barfed at the end).
Presented my SIP and actually felt good about it (I never feel good about presentations).
I have two job interviews tomorrow, one for a field job at Yosemite.

Bad things

One of those jobs is a volunteer position and the other has a mandatory May start date.
I don’t know where I’m living in about two months.

Three and a half days until that half marathon thing I signed up for. Which means two and a half days until my SIP presentation. Which means life is a lil bit on the stressful crazy side.

It’s always the weekends that are the nicest out that I have the most to do. Can’t believe it’s already fifth week and that whole SIP presentation thing is coming up in one week exactly to the hour. Horribleness.

Definitely ordered a copy of this magazine today. It might be weird. It might be great.
