After four months of sleepless nights, a countless amount of recycled babble about American poets and Sylvia Plath, and a horrible dependency on afternoon naps and caffeine, I AM FINISHED!<\/p>\n

My last final has been taken, graduation is on Monday, and then I will have nothing to do but work. Which is really weird. Because even now, I’m here, at work, wondering what assignment I’m missing. I feel like I should be doing something. All of the internet surfing I did while procrastinating isn’t as fun now that I have nothing to do. <\/p>\n

Schedule of events for graduation:<\/p>\n

Monday
\nGraduation, 10 AM UCF Arena.
\nBrio with assorted family and friends, 12:30 p.m. Winter Park Villiage
\nHowl at the Moon, 9 p.m. I-Drive<\/p>\n

Tuesday
\nWork<\/p>\n

Wednesday
\nCocoa with Marissa and Jessica until Friday. Supposedly it’s going to be cold next week, but I’m hoping it will warm up. <\/p>\n

Friday
\nWork, then driving to Miami<\/p>\n

Sunday
\nJen’s wedding<\/p>\n

Thursday
\nDriving home, then a surprise date with Denis Pete \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

So I’m excited. I’m getting some much deserved time off I believe.<\/p>\n

As for other things, between paying for rent, cell phone, Tater’s pet insurance (I’ve tried to justify not having it but I can’t. If something happens to her then I won’t be able to afford for her to get treated), my meds, my psych, and my counselor, I have $70 left over for groceries. PER MONTH. Freaking depression. Oh yeah, and gas. I alloted myself $25 a week, but I don’t think that will last long. At least around here I can ride my bike\/walk. <\/p>\n

This means that I cut out TV, internet, and Vonage. I did keep Netflix, because I have to have something. <\/p>\n

No internet makes me sad. I live on the internet. <\/p>\n

A second job might be in order. <\/p>\n

And today at work has been fairly interesting. A guy from London called and wanted to use an article in our paper for a TV show so I talked to him and thought about Henk and Thomas. Then one of our copy editors picked up his phone and said, “I’m a great grandfather?!” and the newsroom applauded. Then someone from the Mitch Album show called and wanted to interview Willoughby (whose name I love, by the way) for his show. At least the Sentinel is never boring!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
