Everything is still coming up Milhouse.
I'm back working, which is good. Income of any kind is awesome, and while I have no immediate plans to travel, who knows where I'm going to want to go next year. I'm still kind of thinking of au pairing in the US and deferring for a year, but I think that one is a pipe dream.
Work is a lot of fun. Like, I'm not saying I'd do it for free, but I enjoy it. I like the work, I like the atmosphere and I like the people I work with. I've made plans to go out on Saturday night with the two girls I know best, and hopefully that happens! I'm keen to go out and I like making plans with people outside my standard group of four people that I can text any time and be like 'hang out with me'. Those are my first tier friends. Then there is a second tier which is asking politely and usually giving a day or so notice, and then there is third tier which is work friends who I want to bump up to second tier. Of note is the fact that everyone in my tier system is female. I don't really have many guy friends and none on the making plans one on one level :/ But I'm working on that! I've joined debating which is majority male and I might be able to start going in to uni for femsoc, though I doubt I'll meet any guys there, making friends is always a step towards meeting guys, because everyone knows someone else and that's how connections are made.
Also, boys are hard work and I still don't know where I sit on the 'boys and girls can be just friends' argument, at least for people whose sexualities align. On one hand, I definitely believe that men and women should be friends but I do think that most friendships do tend to have some kind of romantic/ sexual bump in the road at some point, if they are close enough.
Uni is going well, I'm doing a lot of Marketing this semester and it's really interesting thus far! I'm looking forward to this semester of mostly Commerce and only Psych stats which isn't really psychology anyway. Not because I don't like psych but it's been my primary degree for the last three semesters and I do quite well at Commerce so it'll be a different kind of term which is good. I got a 72 in Marketing Strategy in Exeter which is a First, and super exciting. I was sitting on a 70 which is still a HD equivalent but I'm glad to know I did well in the exam and must have got a 74. Hurray!
