bending_sickle: (Not my life)

To help illustrate one of the human emotions, which is freaking out.*

Life and Times, the Sickle-Lost-Her-Brain Version:

- Still frustrated with Italian course and it's "Let's go slow! Let's spend an hour on these exercises! Let's spend yet another class on articles!" despite it being intensive. Along with two other students, complained about this to the teacher. Apparently, we're only going to learn the present tense this whole course and we're going slow because it's beginners. Fuck that shit. It's intensive, we've done fifteen hours and all we've learned is nouns, adjective declinations and definite and indefinite articles. Fuck that shit again.

- Got a reply to my job application (which I could have seen and replied to a few days ago but I am an ass). They'd like an interview (cue freakout) and propose Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, so this morning I replied with a "Wednesday, please!" but they haven't replied yet and I'm freaking out about that not-reply and coming up with worst-case scenarios of them never replying and my having to hound after them or show up at the office or something.

- Said job application is for a place with, according to their LinkedIn profile, four employees. I don't even.

- It's very cold in my room. I've taken to sleeping in caterpillar form, arms and legs all tucked to my sides and my feet have forgotten what it's like to be warm. Not cool, yo.

- I have so many creative ideas or projects and no time! I don't even have time to stay caught up with my shows, much less actually read the things I link to in LotD.

- I am freaking out over the job interview and appointment and there is freakingoutedness!


Supernatural Comments:

- I suggest not making asparagus pasta sauce the day after watching Pestilence get puked on. The green tone was exactly the same.

- I love Crowley to itty bitty bits, but I hate what he is in the story, which is to say a deus ex machina. Misplaced that Colt? Crowley at your service! Need Pestilence's location? Crowley knows! Hellhounds on your trail? Crowley's got a pooch for you! Death's coordinates? Good ol' Crowley! Epic Sickle of Death? Hiya, Crowley! I mean, he's awesome whilst doing it all and getting everything and knowing everything as well, but it's too easy and too much like a magician's hat.

Stupid idiot teacher who's too stupid realize your needs, I be doin' my thang!-style. That must be frustrating as hell. I mean, I'm sleeping through the boring classes in school, but you have to pay for that fuckery, don't you? D:

Please, do accept more of my love and consider yourself huggled like crazy, okay? ♥

As for the job interview: win! At last, someone smart enough to know that you go along with absolute epicness. Although if they don't call back soon, I might consider sending them a letter bomb. Or two.

Don't worry, darling. You'll do fantastic. I ADORE YOUR CHARMING AND INTELLIGENT WAYS AND YOU WILL WIN THEM OVER IN A SECOND.



Hugs! Hair! Hakuna Matata!

CANNOT REPLY, DEAD FROM TEH HOT'N'SEXY!

*zombifies self*

The Hair fanvid in particular was winwinwin.

Teacher is still making me go, "Grr, argh! This is boring and repetitious!" and yes, I paid a hell of a lot of money for those courses. It's a bloody disgrace, it is.

I'm still freakingo out over the interview, but now I'm also freaking out over potentially getting the job, because the company is ridiculously tiny (four people or thereabouts) and very far away and did I mention embarassingly tiny? What the hell do they do? Well, okay, that's what the interview is for, but I feel I'd rather not work with them but then my brain goes all, "EXPERIENCE! EXPERIENCE!" in a Dalek voice, waving little tentacles, so what can I do, right?

CONGRATULATIONS! Getting an interview is totally awesome. Interview experience is really good to have. And I hope you get the job, if you end up liking the way it sounds. YAY!

Wee! Thank you! Interview practice is indeed good, even if it was a bit informal (without any of those dreaded questions like, What are your greatest strengths/weaknesses, etc.). The job, though, isn't quite what I'd want: not the area (risk-assesment in food suplements), not the actual work (modelling of risks), so even if they do offer me the job (although they didn't want to discuss the terms of the contract - I mean, I had to ask when they'd want to start and all that), I'm still all confuzzled. *sigh*
