Another BOGY Day

[nathalia]

It’s 5:32pm and I just arrived from work.

Because I took the train this morning, I came in earlier than usual at 8:45am and I worked till 4:30pm with only half an hour for lunch. Usually, I have forty-five minutes and am finished by 4pm, so today, I didn’t work for six hours and fifteen minutes like on the days before, but seven hours and fifteen minutes.

I’m fucking exhausted.

I was at Silly’s yesterday, it was a lot of fun (at least when I wasn’t almost falling asleep). We watched Ice Age and , two movies I had never seen before. But I haven’t changed my opinion about kids’ movies: The old Disney ones are the best. The Lion King, Aladdin, The Beauty and the Beast ... Let’s pretend those moronic sequels don’t exist.

I still have plenty of stuff to do today: pack my things for the weekend with my aunt; do stuff that involves socks (although not the Red Sox); coax my mother into watching at least one episode of Lost with me, preferably two; watch yesterday’s episode of Lost; do some administration work on my computer.

I don’t think there will be time left to do the review of 300 I planned on doing. Since I just discovered that my dad is home now (I was hunting down some spare CDs), I hope I’ll get the opportunity to talk to him a bit later. My mom already had to bear with my whining about all the work I had to do today.

I really wish I’d find someone who has to do a lot more than I do. That would be very satisfactory. Till now, there is Stefan who has to do quite a bit of work, a bit less than me probably. Today, I met Benni on the train, he is in Trumpf in Ditzingen (as are Marc and Annika but he told me he hadn’t seem them once since Monday). He was given a task on Monday and his goal for the week is to find a solution. He showed me the instructions and it didn’t seem that hard, something you can do in about two, maybe three days. He said he’s almost done, so he’ll just sit around and do nothing when he’s done. There’s nobody really looking after him, so he doesn’t actually need to do anything.

I don’t think I said it before, but I’m really curious about Manu’s experiences, after all interning at the mayor of Tübingen is quite a big deal.

Today I had lunch with three BA people who told me more about it and I’m actually considering doing later on because the jobs I got to take a look at are so much more interesting than I had expected them to be and I can see myself doing it.

That is of course assuming that I don’t write a book that the whole world is enticed by and that I get so much money from that I can live from writing alone. I could, for example, write for TV or anything else as long as it involves writing.

Back to reality, doing BA in a field involving economics or something similar I could really see myself doing which is mind-boggling considering that a week ego, this was not an option for me at all. How quickly things can actually change is amazing.

Ignore that I was just whining about it, I just need someone who listens to me while I’m whining and Ali already had to bear with me for too long and I don’t want to feel frustrated again when I hear that she doesn’t do very much while I work my butt off. There will be compensation for it! Someday.

I’m really looking forward to tomorrow. Only half a day of work! Yay!
