Losing My Religion

Not really sure where to begin. All I know is that the end is coming and I'm not sure if I'm ready. I mean, I want to be done with school, but the comfort of school cannot be beaten. After I'm done I'll have to start looking for real jobs and start making real money. It is inevitable for most people, but the thought of submerging myself into the job market does not sound very appealing right now, even if I have already found some jobs that I'm already qualified for. Who knows what will happen. Hopefully, I wont have to look too long because a long job search is not something I'm looking forward to.

Speaking of school, it still sucks. The classes I'm in this semester could be interesting, but I've lost all interest in the school thing a long time ago. Probably because I really don't have a reason to learn, or because I'm against the whole online experience. Doesn't matter though. All I can think is that if I know what I know now, I would not have gone to school where I did. Michigan would have been a good alternative. I know for sure that they would not jam online classes down my throat.

Lately I have been on an R.E.M. phase. I mean, I have always liked them, I just have a greater appreciation for them now. They are one of the better bands of the last 20 years and it makes me wish that bands were still this good. Just a thought I might share to my future self if he has forgotten about this great band.

Not sure what else to say. I mean, I didn't get the promotion I was overqualified for, but that is what happens when you're too smart I guess. Getting punished for doing a 2 year master's program in 2 years. Also, people just assuming that just because I am graduating soon that I will automatically be leaving before others. While it is most likely possible, it is not inevitable. Maybe they should have asked me a question regarding that instead of assuming whatever they thought. If that adult intern position ever opens up I better get it. If I don't I will be quitting on the spot once I find out that I did not get it. There is nothing quite like knowing how useless you are to an organization until you have been working at for over a year. So much for that library experience...
