So I got Vac Work at Deloitte.
Woooooo!!!
Gotta organise dinners, drinks, etc.
While I was ecstatic immediately after being told, for some reason, I'm a bit in the dumps right now.
I think it's all the worrying about things that shouldn't be worried about.
Like, for example, my Leaders Program seminar thing that I'm running. I'm worried that it will be lame, that no-one will turn up, that we won't get another guest speaker, etc. But then, I reason with myself. How bad can it possibly be? At worst, it will just end up with me cringing in a corner.
It also doesn't help that the person running this program appears to be a bit disorganised. She sends us sporadic emails, doesn't tell us when we need to tell her things by, etc. Whatever.
My workload is also immense. Like, a towering tower of immenseness. If there were a comparative metaphor representing how immense my workload in first-year is compared to now, it would be as a mouse compared to an elephant. The biggest elephant on Earth. With a rhino perched on top. And a finch. I like finches.
In amongst uni work and part-time work, I've also got to get Rui's present, Father's Day present, Michelle's birthday present, and I have two job interviews this week. I'm seriously thinking about bailing on the one on Thursday. It's a really long one, and I'm pretty sure I won't be available to do the job anyway even if they wanted me to.
To cap it all off, I'm slightly worried about Arsenal and the rut they're in right now. I have no idea what's going on with that team. It seems like a conspiracy theory when I say it, but there's something fishy going on there. Why do they never spend any real money? It's been squillions of years since any established players have been bought. We let one of the best players in the world go (for probably about 60% of his actual market price, I might add), a half-decent left-back, and about to lose one of our best performers of last season. And yet, we haven't actually done nearly enough to replace them.
It can't just purely be because of Wenger's philosophy. Surely he, being in the know, is able to see the deficiencies that anybody who knows anything about football can see. Why does he not seem to have the money to fix it, despite always saying otherwise? Strikes me as being a bit bizarre.
Anyway, we're almost half way through the semester! That means about 8 weeks away from summer holidays! Yes, I am conveniently ignoring the existence of exams!
Word of the Day: Squillions
