I wish the weekend was longer ;_;

Oh well, I did get my goals of yesterday accomplished, kind of. I was hoping to do more writing but I just have no drive for what I'm working on lately.

Now that we have a new work week, hopefully I'll hear back about some of my job applications.

I'm in the computer lab at school because Lauren forgot to bring in a second laptop for me again. Oh well, I think it might be nice to just sit and do some work by myself. A nice change of pace, at least.

Plus I can do things like make LiveJournal entries without worrying that it will be noticed =P

I HAVE MADE CONTACT WITH TEH KATE!

This is highly exciting and unexpected, given my long history of having phone calls not work!

Now time to get some more work done because I totally ditched the project to talk to her for 20 minutes or so, which really isn't that bad, all things considered.

Back home early, yay!

So today was, amusingly enough, the day when I was productive and everyone else feels like they weren't. This whole project is just so dumb sometimes.

I am feeling really good about today though. I made a realization that I really need to start voicing my opinion more and to stop being afraid of being disagreed with. I've been feeling really unproductive/uninvolved because I haven't been speaking up as much as everyone else and have been telling myself it's because I don't really have any concrete ideas. And yes, sometimes I don't, but a lot of it really is just this fear of people not liking what I have to say. I get really nervous about that, enough that I just don't say anything at all.

It's not just this project either, it's pretty much...life for me. And I need to stop it because I know that I'm not happy about it and that having a little more confidence would be good for me.

Anyway, there's my philosophical moment of the day.

Another pitfall of dial-up...I keep calling home and getting a busy signal. Now, someone could be on the phone, but I'd be more willing to bet that it's the internet.

And I need to talk to them because I just found out that the apartment I'm in now would be available to me from September to December if I want to stay. The only issue is that I'm not sure I do, since it means that the commute that I'm going to end up doing is probably going to be LONG (like, an hour both ways). But I also don't have to move/worry about finding a new place. There is an appeal to that.

But I need to talk it over with Mom and Dad first. And I can't get through on their line -_-

I got through to my parents, yay! They were actually NOT on the internet after all, just on hold with Starchoice trying to get the new satellite box set up.

Anyway, the decision has been made that I am going to stay here for another four months. It really makes a lot of sense because it's one less thing for me to worry about. Plus it will give me the freedom to move again once I hopefully have an actual job, rather than just an internship.

The commute could suck, but hey, it's Toronto, the commute is pretty much bound to suck a bit at least.
