Bummed

I didn't get the Orientation job that I wanted.
I knew that my interview was not good as soon as I walked out of the room; I guess my written application didn't blow anyone away, either. In the rejection email, there was a line that said that we could ask why we didn't get it, but I'm not going to take them up on the offer. It's not like I can reapply next year, plus I pretty much have it figured out. It's really making me more depressed since I have ideas about what I messed up on. I went in with too much confidence and didn't spend enough time double-checking what I was writing and saying.
I'm still going to be an OA, but it's going to be a different experience since I was so ready to move on and take on this other position.

There are a million other things happening right now, but it'll probably be a couple days before I can write about: TA's birthday; Dance Group hosting a great campus event yesterday; me and Espada possibly having moments; Getting high for the first time in forever last night; Realized that all of my best girl friends are going abroad next semester; one of my best guy friends leaving school this weekend; Getting hurt playing capoeira; The shit people are posting about me on this new anonymous gossip site.
I'm skipping class because I'm not ready to leave the couch yet today, I have an hour to pull myself together enough to go to rehearsal, and I have about 10 hours to pull myself together enough to celebrate with TA. I know I'm going to get trashy tonight and I hope that it's a happy trashy, not a sad trashy.
It really is too bad that alcohol is a depressant.

aw baby keep your head up! yeah, the OA thing sucks, but think about all the other good things you have going on. the gossip site? already told you, that if it's anonymous, it's not worth listening to. and after looking things over on the site, I really do think it's just the same 5 or 10 people writing on it.

so yes, get shitty tonight (a good shitty!) and come over and have fun and don't have any worries about any of the other bullshit going on. love you.

Sorry about your OA position, but you can not believe how many people go through their whole lives never realizing what went wrong with anything. From what I've seen, that skill combined with the ability to learn from it is pretty much all you need to succeed in this life. Congratulations. You win.
