So my interview went splendid, until we all realized there had been a snafu and that the group I was able to go to was actually the group that had been cancelled due to lack of interest. Due to the fact that I can't go to the group that's available because I have class at that time, and I'm just on the waiting list (Urgent though it may be, a waiting list is a waiting list) for personal counselling, I do feel a little stranded on the road to recovery. I'll tough it out.
But I still managed to somehow have a solid, good day? I'm sort of confused as to how that happened.
A stranger opened my orange juice for me this morning, which was actually just really nice and one of those "People are inherently good" moments, despite what my cynicism may tell me. Sociology was tolerable--I got to talk about Russian history and de-Stalinization and the Cold War, so I was happy.
Global Politics--I got all excited when explaining MLA citations. Fin said afterward that I was a little hyper, like I had realized that I probably knew the most out of anyone in the room in MLA citations and I talked really fast to get it all out.
I do tend to talk quickly, I'm always worried someone will get bored with what I'm saying so I feel like it's necessarily to say it quickly so I can get it all out.
And Philosophy--fun. Descartes and pink dragons and ended in the best way possible: comparing Descartes to the Dr. Seuss book Horton Hears a Who. Major, major awesome points.
And lunch with Fin--with guest appearances by Ginger Beard and Kassi, who are both amazing people. Somehow a good, solid conversation, the likes of which I've not had with him for awhile without crying so I was really pleased. And we talked about buying Germany and changing their foreign policy so that they just throw rocks at France. This is why I love my friends.
And I was productive and got an assignment done and wrote a quiz and it was a really solid, decent day.
And I am 39 seconds into (500) Days of Summer and already in love. I love indie films.
