applications.

last night i sent off my tfa application. i don't know how i feel about it, but a small part of me is excited about the possibility.
[i guess it goes back to that theme of unknowns for 2008. i have no idea where i'll be this summer, let alone next fall. i could still be here, or i could be somewhere new.]
i was pretty happy after i clicked submit and got in my car last night to go somewhere and celebrate. i do believe i had a smile on my face. again, not because i am so sure it's what i want to do... just because i feel like i took a step towards doing something, which is a nice feeling.
[put a little damper on things when i made a u-turn half way up the street and drove back home because i realized that i didn't have anywhere to go or anyone to celebrate with me. instead i just texted genea because she applied too. ha.]
so now it's just a matter of waiting. and if i actually get accepted, then i'll have a big decision to make.

i have one more application to turn in by the end of the month... the lead fiskateer application. pretty much the dream job of dream jobs. especially at this point in my life. crossing my fingers big time for that one. i'm so stinking excited about that possibility.

otherwise, i'm still thinking about applying for a job somewhere in the industry. ideally, in the bay area, but not too likely. i could also stick around here for a while and work in my current lab. i really like that environment, so it wouldn't be so bad to stay here for a bit.

well i'm off to walk the little he-man. james went snowboarding with his friends today, so i'm hanging out with the pup-dog. he's sleeping on the couch right now and looks so cute. of course i left my camera at home. :/
