Mellow..or trying to be because its better than being anxious all the time.

Last week was pretty uneventful and I fear this week is going to be more of the same unless I don't be proactive and make plans with some friends. I am so anxious about wheather or not I am going to get the job at the tech college in Nashua. As I said in the previous entry I am not sure how firece the compettion is going to be between myself and other nine people who applied. I am crossing my fingers and praying every night that I get this job. I could really use the money because I need to start paying back my loans from NEC soon. I have not reallly gotten a lot of hours from subbing recently... it is school vacation this week so I am hoping that next week I will get called at least one or two days. In the meanwhile I have a meeting with my new job coach from Vocational Rehab Wednesday afternoon at 1:30. Hopefully my job coach and I can come up with some other places I have applied to. I applied for two secreterial jobs @ Southern NH Medical Center in Nashua and I haven't gotten a call back on either one yet. I am hestiant to make any follow up calls for any of the jobs I applied for in the past couple weeks until I hear back from the tech college.

Thursday I am going to Boston for the day with my mom and sister and my sister is going on a college tour of BU. Matt and I are planning on meeting for lunch in Bosotn and I am gonna try to get a hold of my best friend from elementary school and hopefully she'll be able to meet up with me too. I haven't seen her in 8 years. YAY for seeing old friends!! :) Saturday night I am going to NEC to go visit my friends and I am excited about seeing them again since the last time I saw them was before Thanksgiving when I went up for the Masquerade Ball.

So tired...even though i took a two hour nap today. All this job search anxiety is starting to wear me out.

*crossing my fingers*

So my job interview at the tech college went really really well yesterday. I am really hoping I get the job. Nine other applicants are being interviewed and I do not know how fierce the compettion is going to be. I should know by the beginning of next week. I will hold off on following up on other applications I have previously submitted until I hear back.
Saturday was Valentines Day. Matt came over for dinner. Chinese food... yum and then we went to go to see Godspell at Peacock Players. It was a truly enjoyable show. Godspell has always been one of my favorite musicals and Peacock did an amazing job with it.

I think I am a little bit too paranoid about stuff related to the Barn Playhouse and I know at this point that I shouldn't be. What's the past is the past. I am hoping my friends from the Barn Playhouse are not beginning to think negatively of me for the way I have been overly apologizing for taking so long to move on from stuff related to NLBP. I've worn myself out with apologizing when I know there is nothing really to apologize for anymore as I'm sure they have started to tune out all my apologizing. When I go to New York later in the spring with Matt I just want to have fun when I get together with them and catch up on what has been going on. After all it has been two years since I've seen a majority of them. Of course Will Porter is in this mix of people and I think i am the most anxious about seeing him again and the fact that things have a possibility of being awkward between us when we see each other again since we haven't really spoken to each other very much since we left New London. Colleen and Danielle have told me I have nothing to worry about and Rae has too so maybe I should just stop worrying so much and see what happens.

Job Search To Do List (follow up calls about apps will be made depending on wheather or not i get the job at the tech college)
~ Finish Camp Young Judea Application
~ Hopefully get a hold of the assitant principal @ Heron Pond Elementary School to set up an interview
~ Follow up with Walmart about online job application submitted last week
~Follow up with Texas Roadhouse (4th time- hopefully i get a hold of the manager)


American Idol season 8 is alive and kicking. I think there is a lot of talent in this years group judging from what I've seen so far of the auditons. Eary favorites of mine are Danny Gokey, Alexis Grace and Scott Macintyre. Yay American Idol!

I am so excited about going up to NEC next weekend to see all my friends. My brain needs a big relaxer from all the stress I have been under with job searching and this should definitley do the trick.

Later
