I have hope for the holiday season yet. At first, Karisa and I both felt angry and betrayed. Then we felt numb. Then we started to feel driven, we discussed the next step and were able to talk about the issue without too many emotions. Now, I feel hope. The incident can pop into my head, and I don't automatically feel anything. Karisa and I have been planning Christmas gifts for those in the office who have been so supportive, we're listening to Christmas music constantly, and we're making Christmas cookies tonight. Christmas may not be ruined after all!
All of these emotions have gone so fast. It is almost like it is a grieving process, though grieving may not be the right word. At first, there were just too many emotions to handle. It was so ridiculous, and so infuriating, that you just couldn't stand it, you know? I know Karisa is feeling everything stronger than I am, however since I do know her and Cristina so well, and I've been involved in every step of the process, the severity of my emotions is a close second. It is really working out well having her living with me this week because we are able to discuss everything and work through it together.
Emotions will probably be brought up again since we have to relay the latest news to the office on Monday, but I'm thinking I may minimize retelling of the story for awhile. I really need to write down a thorough account of what happened, but I'm worried that that will make the anger and the numbness come back. I much prefer the hope and excitement that I am starting to feel towards Christmas!
Anyway, I need to go shower and clean, so I will keep y'all updated on how I'm recovering from this whole ordeal!! :)

Finals and Drama
This has been a very strange week. It doesn't really feel like Christmas is as close as is it. I should be buying presents, buying train tickets, singing Christmas songs and eating Christmas cookies. The weeks before Christmas are a big part in feeling festive. Instead, my mood is off.
There is one good thing this week: I graduated from college. No, I didn't actually walk, which makes using the word "Graduated" seem weird. Graduation would have been today, however since my Aunt Flow just came to visit, and considering all of the drama (which will be discussed further), it was probably very good that I decided not to walk. I did have about 25 minutes where I very cheerfully celebrated the end of my college career, for now. I am still going to audit a french class to stay in that mind set, and I am going to take one easy online class at a community college to keep my health insurance. But I do not consider either of those when I think about being done. :)
Today I found out that Maryann Matuska died. She and I were really close friends in Elementary School, and even though I didn't talk to her anymore, I still thought very highly of her. She died during the summer, which makes me feel really guilty that I had no idea. This, in addition to the drama, has put a damper on my mood.
The drama is not about me, but about a friend (Karisa). It is a really long story, and it is something that I am going to try and write out more formally. At the moment, I will just give you a summary. Karisa lived with Cristina, my old boss. They had no formal agreement whatsoever, but got along well enough that it never mattered. However, over the last few months Karisa has been feeling less welcome in the house, and the conditions have changed. Finally, on the 30th of November, Cristina talked to her about it and Karisa said she had been considering moving out (though nothing official). Cristina was mad that Karisa hadn't told her (which made no sense because she was just starting to think about it.). The next day, Cristina said, "So you'll be out by the 31st?". Karisa agreed, and started to frantically find an apartment. She found one, and realized she wouldn't need to stay past the 19th. She told Cristina that should would move out on the 19th, and Cristina agreed. On the 7th, Cristina demanded the rent check, acting like it was late - even though Karisa pays on the 10th or 11th of every month (pay day). Karisa left her the check on the table, for a prorated amount - those 19 days. The next morning, while in the shower, Cristina knocked on the door and told Karisa, through the door, that because she did not pay the full months rent, that she would need to be out by Friday at 6pm, when she was changing the locks. Completely taken aback, Karisa canceled the check - because she paid for 19 days but was being kicked out on the 10th. She wrote Cristina an email asking if she would be reimbursed for those 9 days - Cristina never replied. Finally, on Thursday morning, Karisa emailed her again saying that since Cristina never responded to her previous email, she canceled the check and will leave her a check for the 10 days on Friday when she leaves. She packed up all of her stuff Thursday during the day, and her parents made plans to come up Friday and get it. She has been staying with me so she never has to see Cristina. On Friday, 5 minutes before Karisa's last final, Cristina texted her saying "Unless you pay me $500, you will not have access to your stuff". ($500 is the full months rent, an already insanely high amount). Karisa went to the house and found that the locks had been changed early. Since Cristina had, at this point, broken multiple laws (primarily an unlawful eviction, and changing the locks), Karisa called the cops hoping that they would help oversee Karisa getting her belongings. This is what all of our online research and a phone call with a lawyer said would happen. However, the cop was not cooperative and claimed this wasn't illegal (he was obviously not very aware of the laws on this matter!), and that it was a matter for court. Therefore, Karisa had no choice but to pay the money if she wanted to get her laptop, phone charger, clothes or toiletries.
Without a doubt this whole ordeal has been mentally and emotionally taxing. Cristina has showed us that she is a vindictive and mentally unstable person (the full version of the story will include a more detailed description of her words and actions). This story isn't over yet.
And this is why I'm working hard to get into the Christmas spirit. I am listening to Christmas music at the moment, and I have figured out the majority of my Christmas presents, and Karisa and I have decided to try and be festive this week. I am thinking I may want to try and forget about this situation completely over break.
The one weird thing is that I don't necessarily feel depressed (though I am really said about the passing of Maryann), but I am just angry, frustrated, in disbelief and numb. It is hard to describe, but it is as if my heart just can't lighten up enough for the holiday season. Karisa says she knows exactly what I mean though, because she feels the exact same way. But since I want it to, I am going to work hard to make me un-numb. We can't let Cristina destroy the celebration of the end of finals and the beginning of the Christmas season for everyone.

3 days and 8 hours
I finished my paper, so now I just need to get to campus and print it! I also developed my study guide, and feel pretty good for the test as well. I am going to print that too and sit and look over it before class.
By 12:30 at the latest I will be so close to being done! I still have my entretien, which is kind of a nuisance just because I'm going to have to leave work for it, but that's ok. I kind of wish my last final was before Friday so I could finish earlier!
Now I have to get dressed and get to campus!

3 days and 20 hours
That is how much time until I am DONE! Now, it was hard to decide when my countdown should be to. I finish my last final Friday at 10am, but in theory I could finish before then. But then I have to go to work for the rest of the day. Though I'm also working the whole week after that, and then again for the next six months. So, I chose my countdown to be until December 10th at 5pm, when I can come home from work to NO schoolwork, NO studying, and nothing but relaxation! Though all my friends will be going home so I won't have many social opportunities...
So, just a current update. What I have on my plate tomorrow: A paper due at 10:30, an exam from 10:30-12:30, Work from then until 5, with a 20 minute jot over to my professors office for an entretien (wherein we discuss the whole quarter, and its worth points).
I have written the paper, but it still needs edits. I was supposed to work today, but instead I chose to stay home and be productive. I was very good in the day. I got off to a bad start by taking a nap, but it helped me focus a lot more for the whole afternoon. I wrote 6 to 7 pages for my paper, compiled my French work for my entretien, got my papers ready and started a study guide. I also did cleaned my room, did some laundry and worked on cleaning the stove a bit.
Once dinner time hit, my productivity went down, and it was hard for me to get back on it. However, I did and I have edited by paper up to the point where it is almost ready. One thing that I like is that, in general, and *knock on wood*, but I tend to do well on papers written in English. I write out whatever is in my head and I do ok. I have gotten A's on the last two papers for this class, and I can tell by my peers grades that that isn't necessarily an easy task. Part of me thinks that this is good enough (I seriously didn't think my others were that great but I did good), but the other part of me thinks that this is my last paper ever at WWU, and that I should make it AMAZING. I'm pretty good at ignoring that part.
The only thing left to do really (besides another editing read through or two, of course), is study for my exam. That actually is a big deal. The exam is 5 essay questions, where each one is a page minimum. We had the same style for the other two exams, but I get the impression she expects more from us and will grade accordingly. Therefore I want to make sure I do well. I got an A on the first test, and a B on the second. I studied more for the first then the second. Therefore, it would be logical that I should study for this one.
Ok, so I only have 4 more minutes until I have to hit send, else the count down will be wrong. I am sorry that this is, once again, a "boring" post wherein I talk about school and school only, but if it makes you happy this is my last quarter, so it shouldn't happen again! Though I am auditing a french class, and taking a class online at a community college, so I'm not completely done.... :/
Now I have to go study! Tootaloo!

Boring
Man, I write boring posts. I just reread the last one I wrote. It seriously use this thing has my planner, diary, to-do list, etc. Maybe if people commented, it would become less of a ramble. Though I can't promise anything. :P
I need to get into the habit of taking photos and putting those photos on my computer! That way, maybe my posts could be more interesting.
Oh, and in cleaning I found random earrings and I realized that I want to have earrings!!! :(

It's a start!
I can't believe it, I'm actually working on my room! Well not right now obviously....right now I'm online. Oops!! Ok, so you know how this morning I got to sleep in and go to campus late? Messing with my routine and leaving at a random time messed me up just a bit.... I missed my bus! I had to walk to campus! Luckily, I was only 2 minutes late to class and she was still in the process of handing out the quizzes. I think I do ok, though its always the stupid mistakes that I can't see that get me! (Though, I think the worst I've done is 23/25, so I'm not hating on the quizzes or anything).
Work was good, I got a lot done (and quicker than I was told it would take!), so it was a nice, but normal day.
I have so far consolidated my "junk" drawers. I have a pretty good amount of space under my bed that has held various boxes and drawers of "junk". I went from 4 boxes and a big roll-y drawer to just 2 small boxes. I can now use that drawer for other purposes, and I will have extra space down there for other things.... I don't even know what! Though I have a lot of stuff, so I'm sure I'll find something. I think I want the two roll-y drawers to contain jackets and sweatshirts and scarves/hats/gloves. At least for the winter season. Those are my biggest enemy right now, I try to vary up what I wear, but the result is various jackets and scarves just around in my room. If they were in two roll-y drawers under my bed, it'd be easy to access them. Then I could put more storage-y stuff near the head of my bed, where it is less easy to access (due to my nightstand). Though I am very happy with my progress, my room looks the worst it has yet. It has a bag for throw-away, a bag for goodwill (which contains both objects and clothes because I'm too lazy to sort that now), all the empty and full boxes and the junk from my room. Under my bed looks good though! :)
Right now I'm doing laundry... I'm hoping that with getting rid of all the clothes that I just don't wear, I'll actually have enough space to put away the clothes I do wear! Since at the present moment I don't have enough space for them, it is impossible to clean my room! The only problem is that I can always justify why I should keep it "The only reason I don't wear it is because I don't know where it is!", "That would be PERFECT for this kind of outfit", etc. At least I do have a pretty good amount of clothes that don't fit and I don't like, so I can get rid of some stuff at least....
I already cleaned my desk, though it has 3 cups on it right now.... Oops! I got rid of two boxes of "junk" from my bookshelf as well, which means I may be able to actually put books on my bookshelf! Maybe I'll have Lindsay come organize those for me, I know she loves that! I think I'm going to have to put my school books under my bed for now. Ideally, one day I can have a bigger apartment and have a bookshelf in a public space that is just all textbooks. Like a reference library! And I've never sold a book back, so I have a lot of them! :) (Maybe I should sell some books and make money though.... Will I ever actually reference those books?)
Lindsay canceled on me for hanging out tonight, which was unfortunate, but it let me get a lot of work done. I'll just have to reschedule with her for next week.
Tomorrow, Rachael and I are going to go see Harry Potter, and I'm really excited because I've heard this one is really good! I'm going to try and convince her to eat Boomers. Seeing as she is one of the... 3? people who read this blog, maybe she'll see this before and decide that Boomers sounds soooo yummy. :P
Saturday I want to clean the apartment in the day time, like make a fun project of it. I'm hoping Rachael and I can work together, so its not just she or I who cleans some of the big stuff. We'll see if she goes for that... :)
And that night Karisa plans to come over to dinner, and we may go to the mall. I'm starting to doubt the second part, unless she's really into that idea. It was my suggestion because I wanted to try and find ideas for Christmas gifts... but I'm not positive I'll actually want to do that.
Then Sunday, I have to write a paper. My LAST paper. EVER (as an undergrad at WWU). Weird! Its in Psychology, about the differences in Aphasia between speakers and signers. It should be interesting, and I've gotten A's on the last two papers, so *knock on wood* it shouldn't be too bad.
Overall, it seems like a good weekend and I'm excited. I just need to keep working on my room tonight because it can't stay like this!! Or I need to add to it after Rachael goes to bed Fri or Saturday day or something.... My goal is to finish my break so I can come back to a clean room!!! :)
I'm also waiting for Anna to come on Skype because we have a Skype date!! Woot!

Sleep in
I don't have to be on campus until noon! Which is really weird for me, because even though this is supposed to happen once a week, it has only happened a couple of times this quarter. I have a quiz in math and a near-dead calculator, so I need to use this morning to find some other batteries. I also still need to shower, get ready and have breakfast. So there isn't tons of extra time. However, last night when I was going to bed I decided that I would turn on music and clean this morning. That doesn't actually sound fun, now that it is morning time. What a surprise?
My room is only getting worse and worse, which seems logical to me. I take a few things out of their place in an attempt to "deep-clean", and when I don't clean, things just build up even more. For example, I temporarily moved a chair next to my computer so Lindsay could watch a movie. I didn't move it back because I figured that would give me a chance to organize the part of the room that the chair came from. I haven't done that yet, so the chair is still sitting there, building and building with clothes.
That said, I've already read most things online, I don't feel like watching anything (I'd worry I'd lose track of time), and even with all my normal getting ready, I have an extra hour. Maybe I will end up cleaning out of boredom? I'll let you know.
Briefly, in other news.... I've started to Christmas shop. I have decided on presents for the majority of my family, and I've "claimed" them on googledocs. I figure if a few days go by without protest ("oh, I already bought that!"), then I will buy them and send them to the parents house. Shopping made easy!
And lastly, apparently my Psych class is canceled tomorrow, meaning I will ONCE again not start til noon. The only reason this happens so rarely is that I choose to work in the mornings, but since I have 19 hrs this week (the maximum) and will be working near full time next week, there is just nowhere to put the hours. So, considering that that class is canceled, all I have left is:
Math: Quiz today, review tomorrow, Test next week
French: Review/Reflection tomorrow, 15 minute "interview" with professor (easy)
Psych: No more classes, 1 paper (not fun), 1 test (not fun)
Not much left!! Yay!
Oh, and I know I already said "lastly", but one last kind of exciting thing (to me at least). At work, I'm going to start doing the financial side of the work. Karisa and I kind of split off into the two different things our office does, she was the financial person, and I was the data entry, research and "supervisor" person. But, the girl that Karisa has been teaching doesn't work that many hours and apparently makes mistakes, so the boss wants Karisa to teach me so its the two of us who do it. Woot! Now I'll know EVERYTHING! :P This makes me more eager to work throughout finals week and for the week after, because I'll be learning new things and getting lots of good stuff done. So any doubt I had about when I was going home is now gone.
Ok, now I need to go shower, drink my coffee, and hopefully realize that cleaning is good. Tootles!

The only reason this happens so rarely is that I choose to work in the mornings, but since I have 19 hrs this week (the maximum) and will be working near full time next week, there is just nowhere to put the hours. So, considering that that class is canceled, all I have left is:
Math: Quiz today, review tomorrow, Test next week
French: Review/Reflection tomorrow, 15 minute "interview" with professor (easy)
Psych: No more classes, 1 paper (not fun), 1 test (not fun)
Not much left!! Yay!
Oh, and I know I already said "lastly", but one last kind of exciting thing (to me at least). At work, I'm going to start doing the financial side of the work. Karisa and I kind of split off into the two different things our office does, she was the financial person, and I was the data entry, research and "supervisor" person. But, the girl that Karisa has been teaching doesn't work that many hours and apparently makes mistakes, so the boss wants Karisa to teach me so its the two of us who do it. Woot! Now I'll know EVERYTHING! :P This makes me more eager to work throughout finals week and for the week after, because I'll be learning new things and getting lots of good stuff done. So any doubt I had about when I was going home is now gone.
Ok, now I need to go shower, drink my coffee, and hopefully realize that cleaning is good. Tootles!
