Lime Flavored Coke.

I don't know what is up with me today...I had like 3 lime flavored cokes...that definitely cannot be good for my teeth, they are probably rotting away as we speak...God, lime flavored coke is good stuff...Anyways, I had a end of the year job evaluation this evening and it went really well. I earned decent markings and that encourages me to work even harder and do even better next year. My editor told me she hoped I wanted to stick with it and I was like "Are you kidding, I want this more than anything." Now I realize this may sound a bit dramatic, but I meant it, I love this job. I feel so great after finishing a story and then seeing my byline the next day on the front page. Reporting is not looked at as creative writing, but then again all writing is creative in a sense. There is indeed a style and some would say it is called 8th grade writing, but the fact that I get to sit at a computer everyday and write for work is good enough for me...

I am still apartment hunting and it is becoming a rather tedious task. A co-worker has an apartment open and it is adorable and has this huge closet for all my shit. I mean I could fit my car in there and use it as a garage if I wanted... It would be perfect if I was living there myself, but the rent is a little steep for only one occupant. I really want my own room, my own space... I kept trying to make sense out of having a roommate live in the closet so I could have my space, I mean it was huge! My close friend Ryan was like "Ang, you can't have someone LIVE in your closet to save money!" I am somewhat of a logical person and yet I kept trying to think of plausible ways I could make it work. I would just get quiet while I was looking at the rest of apartment and Ryan would be like "Ang, just stop now, I know your thinking about how you can have your way." I know it sounds funny, but I'm telling you this closet was huge!

I am currently waiting on a couple employment opportunities for the summer too. (AKA "call backs.") It is fustrating not knowing where I will live or what I will be doing for the next few months. I love knowing what is going on and what to expect. I love planning out things in life, for example, I have calendars and planners everywhere and write down everything I am or will be doing for that particular hour or day. Although, on the contrary I thrive off of spontaniety. Spontaniety is really great stuff...and so is lime flavored coke...
