Long time, no blog. I'm addicted to Facebook

I guess the only thing missing from facebook is a good blog for the users. Nothing too terribly much going on with me. Just finishing up finals this week. I'm just glad they'll be over by Wednesday, then I can get drunk and pass out in front of Dirty Dancing.

Got accepted into the Creative Writing in Rome program...!!!!!!! SO! From June 23-July 23 I will be in the Mediterranean under the hot-ass sun... eating REAL ITALIAN FOOD. I'm just a little upset with the euro at the moment. Well, not so much the euro as the American dollar... Anywho, it'll be fun. I'll be a month away from everything, so I know I'll be both excited and apprehensive, but the UW Rome Center will have computers so I can keep in touch with everyone. Very excited though.

Work's been a real drag and incredibly volatile. I mean, one of my coworkers, who actually got in BIG trouble recently, has been planting wierd traps for people to fall into and get in trouble with the boss. I mean, I'm not used to this sort of thing. With work, you go there, do the job, and make the customer happy. That's all it should be, but unfortunately, it's a big fucking mess. At times, I just wish that I was working at the bakery more rather than at Samurai Noodle. At least I'm working with adults rather than teenagers at the bakery... plus more space to walk around. Also, I end up doing multiple tasks at the bakery.

I just want next quarter to start so that I FINALLY have a DAY OFF. Every day I am either at school or at work... or sometimes both. Next quarter, I won't have school on Fridays and will just flat out tell Samurai Noodle that I can't work on that day... for whatever reason. I am tired.

This Thursday's agenda: Renew passport, get passport pictures for that matter, get UW health insurance for overseas travel, get information on student visa or get a student visa... however that works, get a book on Italian, and get drunk. Yeah. That sounds good.

From what I've seen, Europe is really fantastic. And a month is the perfect amount of time to go, because you will be kind of homesick by then, and it will feel really good coming home and you won't be too sad about leaving :)

I wish I could go back someday! Although yes, it is pretty darn expensive right now. I remember France being pretty expensive back in the day and I'm sure it is worse now.
