On A Lighter Note.

In good news today, I just got a secondary interview with a company. There is hope yet. Maybe someday soon I will be a real adult.

Time to hold up the cardboard sign

Hello All,

As of March 19th I have officially completed my time at UCD. It does not yet feel quite real yet because everyone is gone on spring break, not many people are in town and my roommates are all gone. So now I am unemployed and more broke than I would have ever imagined. I mean seriously poor to where I can't really afford to even go to the grocery store and if it wasn't for stealing my roommates food while they are gone and eating the last of my frozen costco veggies and chicken I would starve. As for the job situation I have been applying to jobs every day. I have only heard back from one company and had a great first interview. So now I sit at home, watch numerous hours of tv, stare at the computer screen browsing for jobs till my eyes can tolerate no more, run and get lots of sleep.

I am hoping one day I might not be such a bum. Until then I will be bored out of my mind so free to hit me up on facebook, gchat, text or whatever form of social contact you find suitable.

Long Time No See.

Well Friends, or whomever even reads this measly little blog, I have returned. It seems ages since I have written anything. These past weeks have been incredibly busy and feel out of ideas to write about. Life has become quite routine, school, work, homework, panic about life, eat, sleep and repeat. Some out of the ordinary activities are my new obsession with snowboarding. I can not wait to hit the slopes again this weekend.

But apart from that my recent focus has been to finish up with my degree. Yes, I am finally receiving a B.S in Microbiology with a minor in Technology Management.WIth 2.5 weeks left I am counting down the days.

However I try not to focus on the reality of life after school. Right now I am trying to imagine it at a super long weekend full of freedom, sleeping, hanging out and doing nothing. I am trying not to focus on the reality of no health insurance, no money, no job, and the feeling of being completely lost not knowing what to do with my life and freaking out about what I want to be now that I am grown up.

Whew so that is it in a nutshell. If you have any ideas of what I should be now that I am grown up please email me suggestions. bmforsythe@ucdavis.edu. Or if you know anyone who want to hire me. I will do practically anything, and if I don't know how I can google how to do it. Slave labor, cooking, cleaning, building shit, literally anything for a dollar.

This Sucks!

Today I went outside to pump up my bike tires before heading to campus. I get to the bike rack and notice my bike is nowhere to be found. Some time within the last two weeks my bike was stolen. Then later this evening I was in class looking for my pulse life scribe pen that I just got for christmas. It was nowhere to be found. I figured it had to be somewhere in my backpack buried under all my books. I get home, empty everything, look every where and even in my car. It was no where to be found. I am pretty sure it was stolen when a zipper was open during lab yesterday. I suspect one of the students that I was tutoring for stole it while I was busy walking around the room helping the other students.

I was so excited about this pen. It was like a little computer in a pen form. It visually recorded my notes as well as audio. Had a calculator and all kinds of cool applications to be downloaded. Basically some bastard just stole themselves a $200 toy that was mine.

Needless to say I am extremely upset to how this day of thievery had ended.

Life

These past two days I have been feeling very emotional. It must be a combination of recent events, hormones and other things uncontrollable in my life. Tonight I just found out two of my friends just got engaged. I am so excited for them and excited to see them finally tie the knot. The cycle of life so many of my friends are getting married. I also became an auntie when my childhood friend just recently had her first son. Then within 10 minutes of getting the engagement news I received an email from one of my professors. A classmate of mine, whom I was able to get to know last quarter was killed by a drunk driver. He and his mom were driving and instantly killed. I can't believe he is dead. We would talk every class about the class we were both going to take at Sac State for the CLS program. We were both applying to the same schools and I even bought a text book off of him. He was 22 years old getting ready to graduate from College in June. I can't even begin to Imagine how his family is dealing with this tragedy, and having to spend the holiday season mourning instead of celebrating.

Time Machine

If I owned a time machine, now would be the perfect opportunity to use it. I would fast forward first to next wednesday at 10:31pm. The exact time finals are over and I begin to celebrate the fact that my last fall quarter is done! The next place in time I would go is 4 years from now. I could see what job I had, so that I could make decisions about where to go next or even have hope that I would be able to get into graduate school with my less than outstanding GPA. Or even to go back in time to re take all those tests that I so brilliantly F-ed up in order to give myself a chance at getting into a decent program. Until I can find said time machine or even muster up the ridiculous amount of money it would take to buy a non existent mode of time travel I will have to study for these tests, write that stupid report and attend these last few days of class.

soooo sick of school!!!

Gah!! I am so sick of my management classes. Three more weeks and I am done with them forever! But until then I am going to whine and complain till the bitter end.

On a lighter note.. In the joy of procrastination I am now on level 19 in farmville.

Also I have finally decided what to get my dad for Christmas. I picked it because when I saw it I couldn't stop laughing. I hope he will appreciate this clock as much as I do, because I would love to get this myself. Believe it or not I get my super geekyness from him.


Then to top the list I finally got a postcard from a friend who went to Bulgaria and couldn't stop laughing, between the postcard and this clock man oh man does my stomach hurt.
