Listening to MCS for the first time. They're not bad. Still growing on me, I think.

I'm home for about 48 hours before going back to IC to pack up my apartment. I gave my resume to a bakery/coffee shop this afternoon, and tomorrow I have an interview with a financial advising company. Of the two, I'd rather work for the coffee shop. I really like making lattes, and I'm honestly not ready to be a real person with a 9-to-5 yet. I'd rather be an irresponsible young adult for a while.

Not sure what I'm doing with an extra journal, but Amanda gave me a friend code and it seemed rude not to use it. Maybe I'll just make this one more introspective. Or, you know, not. I did post a pretty philosophical entry on LJ the other day (and by "philosophical" I really mean "spend several paragraphs crying about how I won't be able to get a job if I get my lip pierced, even though I really, REALLY want to").

We'll see.

I like BOA.

I also like the false feeling of cleverness I get from copying and pasting code someone else has written into the customizing box, thus creating an awesome layout that I actually had nothing to do with making, but still feel entitled to taking credit for.

The flowers are pretty.

Is it weird that I'm already wondering if the art school here administers Associates Degrees? I think I might want to get one in Creative Writing (or whatever their equivalent is - Fiction Writing, it may be). I talk a lot of shit about being glad to be done with school, but I like the idea of getting a degree for no other reason than it would be fun to get it. I majored in English because I like reading books and I'm pretty good at writing essays, but also because a lot of people told me that it would be useful in finding a job after - as my dad says, reading and writing critically are two of the most sought-after and hard to find qualifications. Might be nice to study something just because I can.

But we'll see. No matter what I end up doing, it's WAY too early to even THINK about going back to school. I wanna play a little before I do any more studying.
