Preparing...

I've been thinking I should spend more time with the blog, and so I'll just give a quick update on my preparations for summer.

I've started packing, and I've purchased a few more sundry items which I am hopeful will make me look presentable in the office. I have a game plan for how I'm going to get to my living arrangements (taxi!), and surprisingly already have dinner engagements for Saturday and Sunday nights, thanks to my shveet sister. As to preparing for the internship, I'm casually reading magazines, blogs, and official webpages which pertain to the stuff I'll be working on.

My status?

Although my exterior is calm, on the interior I am like an unraveling ball of twine. I should be working my tail off preparing for this internship, but then so much of what I'm going to do and the people I'll work with are unknown to me, and I'll have to learn a lot on my feet. It will all work itself out, I'm sure, and everything will be like a peachy king.

So why worry?

Just can't help it.

In order to combat my anxiety about the unknown, I've been doing a lot of things to distract myself: hang out with friends, read, garden, cook, watch movies/old TV shows, (ending up spending way too much time on Facebook). And I'm not even consistent in my distractions: I let myself get distracted by something else, so that I end up spending a little time on a lot of different projects without finishing anything. So all those books that I thought I'd read, poems I'd write, and paintings I'd work on while I was home during the break have been floundering in partial neglect...

Oh well. At least I've started the old BSG - without a chance of finishing it in the foreseeable future: another thing that I started and have not finished. Felgercarb.
