Underwhelmed

"She was underwhelmed if that's a word. I know it's not 'cause I looked it up. It's one of those skills that I learned at my school"

I should be overwhelmed considering the amount of work I have put off until (nearly) the last moment again. I feel oddly calm, though. Might be the Herbalife stuff making me high. Whatever.

Tomorrow I tell my colleagues that this is my last year at the OSB. Not really impressed by that. Since there won't be a staff meeting tomorrow (there will be talks about the students but no general meeting), I have been demoted to the break to tell everyone my big news. I am not really impressed by that, either. It just is what it is. I thought I would be very emotional but, so far, I am oddly calm and indifferent. Which should make me a bit sad since I have worked there for 6½ years now.

I haven't heard anything from FairFlex about that school they sent my application to. Should I be worried? It's only been a couple of days. Since I have never done this before I have no basis for comparison. I sent them an e-mail with my mobile phone number -- just to remind them that I am out there. Hopefully I will hear something soon.

I tried arranging a visit with a friend (with benefits) of mine as he has broken his leg (actually, smashed to smithereens is probably more accurate) recently and I realized that I didn't have a free moment until the 28th of April. Not even an evening open. Nada. How depressing. And only a couple of nights are for fun things. The rest is work shit.

On the positive side, the trip to Hungary this summer for Sziget is planned and paid for. From festival ticket to train ticket to hostel for after the festival. It's all arranged and paid for. Which is a relief. Now I just have to plan what to pack in my bright pink duffel bag on wheels. :D

Another positive thing is that I may be going to see Stomp in London this July. With a group of fairly fabulous people. If I can combine it with my trip to see Suze, that'll be even better!

And, of course, my upcoming trip to Edinburgh and London. It's going to be a hectic weekend but I think it'll also be loads of fun, which is always a bonus.

So, with that little bit of sunshine in mind, I will put my mind to report cards (for real this time) and see if I can't get this pesky class finished tonight. Wish me luck!
