Time Off

I am pretty disappointed in myself for being way off on my Stanley Cup playoff's predictions this year. I am getting almost every series wrong, so don't ever listen to me for an opinion on an outcome of a matchup of any sort. But as the playoffs progress, I get more and more excited for what is further to come. I just really hope Washington can pull off a victory tomorrow; New Jersey is my other pick, but for some reason my gut is telling me I want the Hurricane's, probably because I have Eric Staal in my pool, though.

Over the last five or so days, don't know exactly and too lazy to count, I've really been able to enjoy time off from, pretty much, everything. It does feel a bit weird, as it always does, knowing that you can wake up without having any school related things to worry about, because there's always that feeling inside of you that's telling you to find out what you need to finish before the due dates. Well, what have I been up to? Absolutely nothing. I've pretty much sat at home all day, waking up at around noon, then playing Final Fantasy and guitar until I get bored, then watch the playoffs when they come on.

However, I do feel that I, and others, am putting pressure on myself to go find something to do. I should honestly go job hunting soon, and it doesn't take a genius to tell me that. One thing that makes me feel somewhat neglected to get a job is that there are so many little blips of things throughout the next four months that will force me into taking time off because of events I need to attend. Once every week or two, I would need to leave for a few days, and then come back just to have to leave again in the next ten days or whatever. So, I guess this is what's really slowing me down from applying for jobs because my availability is kind of unstable.

In the end, though, I am really enjoying the time off, so far. I can step back a little bit and think about where I am and what I need to do next; one thing I definitely do not want to do is rush things, but also not to drag it too long so that it takes me way too long to figure things out. I am new to this type of business, okay, leave me alone; I need to plan things out, haha.
