"A bittergirl is not really bitter. She has crawled though the trenches of heartbreak hell and come through seasoned, experienced, wiser, and funnier. She can take on the world again with her sense of humour intact and a raft of good stories to tell."

It's late.

I can't sleep tonight, which is really weird because I've been really tired this week. This is my last busy week (school-wise) until finals so I'm looking forward to it being over. I think the time change has screwed a lot of people up. I know it's really nice to have light so late in the evening but I don't like waking up to darkness every morning. I slept in by an hour and a half on Tuesday and was late for work. It just takes a lot to get up that early when you don't have the sun shining for you. Oh well.
I think I can't sleep because I have a lot on my plate (like most people this time of year), which is a lot to think about.
I think working four days a week has caught up to me - it's hard to work an 8 hour day and then have to go to school afterwards, only to wake up the next day and have to do it all over. It can take a lot out of you. I've realized that I am the kind of person that can't leave work at work - I go home and think about it...probably because a lot has been going on at the office and trying to get a position full-time is something you have to prepare for, which is what I've been doing lately. I really have to work on seperating the office from home.
School's been not too bad lately - I handed in my last paper today and just have to finish Friday nights Abnormal Psych mid-term and then I can have a little 'break' until April. Will be nice in the summer, only taking one class instead of four.
Ok I'm losing my concentration, which is a good sign. I'll give sleep a second try now and hopefully a late night tonight won't result in me sleeping in again.

' he was my kryptonite. '

Ew...ever wake up thinking 'did that actually happen?'. Anywho, I've been thinking as I write my Motivation paper, which is on self-efficacy in difficult circumstances...Guys...I tell you, they are everywhere when you don't want them to be. I've been trying to avoid the whole rebound/back-up/dating scene, and it hasn't been going too well. Until now, haha, I am fed up so I'm taking a time-out. It's so frustrating to have opportunities but you decide not to pursue them because you're the girl who likes someone who is incapable of giving you what you need out of a relationship and you've already used every piece of your self-esteem to keep them.
