Siiiiigh, it's monday.
The good news is that things are changing here at Russell LLC. which might make it bearable until i can find a new job. Or until I get my internship for the summer. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let that happen.
My editor just moved into my office with me, and we've been girl talking about guys. She just got into a relationship and she asked me if i was dating anyone.
"In real life, or in my head?"
In my head i'm married to Landon Donovan, seriously dating John Krasinski, and having a fling with Zac Efron on the side. wow, slutty even in my own imagination.
I deemed myself a while ago not emotionally mature enough to be in a serious relationship. I still want to run around with my friends (when i have the time), and i want to be able to pick up my life and move should i have the chance to advance my career. I never though i would be the girl to throw herself into her career over being in love, but that path looks very appealing right now. I don't have time, and I'm just not ready. Sure, I have crushes and shared smiles with guys at bars or in school....but nothing makes my heart flip more than the thought of chasing my dreams across the country should i get the opportunity.
This weekend was wonderful. I spent it with my mom, who took me shopping and we went to get dinner at STIR CRAZY which is amazing chinese food. We saw leatherheads which was just a fantastic movie. Really loved the old time feel too it, and the quick dialogue and slapstick elements along with that amazing soundtrack really made it enjoyable. and of course, john was flawless in it. oh, and george clooney was his same old sexy self. GO SEE IT!
A long week ahead, school, work and practices. Then its off to Ohio for my first big tournament with my girls. I'm not sure how the competition will be, but wish us luck!
There is a banner on the side of this page as im writing this about ALL NEW NBC THURSDAYS. you know you're definitely not in college anymore when you're more excited for that than for what used to be "thirsty thursdays" and usually the biggest drinking night of the week.
Things to get excited about:
- little 5 weekend with my best friends and playing some real soccer in the alumni game
- new episodes of the office and how i met your mother
- great movies coming out soon (indiana jones, sex and the city)
- disney trip for my sisters 30th birthday
- punta cana for a week with meggy
- life in general.
I woke up with a migraine. I get them a couple times a month. The right side of my head just catches fire and my eye throbs. it's painful. one time my junior year, it was so bad katie took me to the walk in clinic and the doc. had to knock me out with a shot in the leg. it was awesome. i wish they just packaged those and i could jab myself in the leg whenever i got a migraine.
anyways, i woke up with one. and i thought, "this is not gonna be a good day."
and i was right.
i got an email that told me i did NOT get the job. it was between me and one other person, and it went to the other girl because she had more experience. i was real excited for this job, since i would be using my creative talent. annnnd i aced the copywriter test. and i had great interviews. so when i found out i didnt get i crashed. and then i realized i still work here.
before i went to bed last night i thought...if i dont get this job, maybe it means I'll be hearing from the internship committee at the end of this month. then i'll be in hollywood, doing what i love. writing.
i was talking to our art director doug about writing an article about our circulation manager as a joke between me and her. i told him i did it in like 20 minutes and how much fun it was, compared to the 3 hours it takes me to put together an enewsletter which i loathe. and he told me:
"it's funny what you can get done when it's something you love."
my mommy is coming this weekend. she'll take care of me. clothes, food. movies.
LEATHERHEADS COMES OUT TOMORROW! GO SEE IT!
That is my boyfriend, John Krasinski. How adorable is he?
Don't touch him! HE'S MINE!
