Just a personal update
Nothing fancy, just thought I'd keep up to speed. Just sent out my taxes a short while ago and I should be expecting a little back, guess what that means? I'm gonna get a PSP. ^_^ I've been on the fence for a while now on if I should get a PSP, a DS, or if I should just get a Wii. Well I've given all the systems a try and with my current situation and the options available, right now and as long as I'm stuck using public transportation the PSP is my best option hands down.

I have been having a problem lately with getting into a lot of bad moods or depressed. I know I'm making people worry about me or get upset with me and for that I'm sorry. I've been trying to count my blessings and keep my focus on my goals and not the obstacles, but its just been really hard and having everyone tell me "Oh you worry too much" or "You freak out too easily" isn't helping.

I've been having issues with money because I do work only a minimum wage job and they've been cutting hours lately. School is fun and challenging, but is expensive and I need to find an internship soon so I can start getting industry relevant experience.

Also I've been pretty down on myself lately because I haven't been very successful at losing weight or breaking my bad habits. It really has been hard because I feel like no matter how hard I try, it seems like my boyfriend's family will never think I'm good enough for him. Oh and lately I've been accused of not wanting to spend time with him when what's really going on is I have responsibilities that are taking up my free time.

I hate to be so negative especially since I know that just a year, even two years ago, I had it way worse and I should count myself blessed that I even have a roof over my head. I am grateful, but I think part of it is now that I actually have something to lose, I'm struggling to keep what I've got, while trying to climb higher and improve it.

Just wish me luck and pray for me please,
Yume

Last night I got a call from one of the employers my school has ties too, apparently they sent my resume out for me and I got a bite. I'm gonna go talk to the career services lady today to find out more info. But I'm kinda excited. I'll keep you guys posted. ^_^

I now know what company it is...they make golfing supplies. They're looking for someone to put in their graphics department and I have an interview at 4pm. ^_^
I'm so nervous and giddy at the same time.

This is my first really industry related job interview and even if I don't get it, its still a step in the right direction and it'll help me be more prepared for the next opportunity that comes my way. Okay I gotta run I need to go tidy up my portfolio to show off at the interview. ^_^

Okay I had the interview and it seemed to go well enough. However I'll say it right not I didn't get it. *Shrugs* Its okay that I didn't get the job because it would have been really difficult maintaining a full time eight hour a day 5-6 day a week job and go to school full time. Especially since it means I probably wouldn't get time to spend with Kain or anyone else for that matter more than maybe a couple times a month with that schedule...well at least until I graduated in November.
