Ugh... I couldn't think straight while I was playing Advance Wars Dual Strike because of this headache I have. Next thing I knew, the enemy was crushing me like a grape. I hope I can try again tomorrow when I don't have headaches anymore.
A package I was waiting for to be delivered hasn't come yet. When I check on the UPS site it says it was delivered but there was no package by my door or in my mailbox. My only hope is that it might be at the manager's office (I live in an apartment) but I have to wait till tomorrow since they are closed for the night. I hope it didn't get lost otherwise I will have to contact the seller that I bought the item from and ask for my money back.

For the first time in a month, I have a weekend day off work, and as consecutive to another day off. But then, day before the first of these two, find I'm penciled in for the second. I'm doing nothing important enough to not take this, but on a day when I could be Splatfesting, or nabbing the Retro amiibo 3-pack, or convincing my sister and her boyfriend of another movie night, or joining them for a convention... Plus, our heater's light is out, so my pre-work shower's gonna be cold. My anti-hype couldn't be much higher.
Freedom is always sacrificed to faith, good hunter. Or are you truly here by choice?
Sigh... I'm just feeling really depressed ever since an incident (probably TMI, tbh) occurred this afternoon. It's just making me think hard... I can't even decide whether it's a big deal or not, but it's just depressing...
@ekreig: Ok so everything worked out my package was at the Manager's office. Thing that had me worried is the last time the did that they left a card in my mailbox saying that it was there, this time nothing.

I lost my job yesterday. A job that I have dreamed of doing since I was a kid, and the past two years have been the best of my life. Now without any warning it's gone. I just feel so lost now. I've never felt like this and it feels horrible. Zookeeping has been everything I've ever wanted, and I feel so priviledged to have worked both with some truly amazing animals, and a keeping team that I considered family. But now it's all been taken away and it hurts so much.
@GrizzlyArctos: Have you ever thought of working on other zoos? Like from other different places where you can care new animals and raise them as a new family of your own? That might cheer you up. But then again, that's assuming that you can't afford such attempts to begin with so....sorry my bad. And yeah, I do feel your pain that you being so loyal to your work and then all of a sudden, it just doesn't matter how much you do but rather how much time they can keep your job which is really a sad thing to do. But hey, atleast you have good memories right?
So now if I post one more pointless thread whether its sensible or not, I get a temporary ban. I just want to chat particular things in detail but can't get that done anywhere else. I don't even get any comments from my blog that I post now and then. I guess my destiny is to live a lonely life after all.
@Artwark: Yeah, I'm definitely going to stick with zookeeping. I've got a year left of my college course then I'm going to see if I can get in somewhere else. Being a zookeeper is a dream I've had ever since I was a kid, and I consider myself so lucky to have had the chance to fulfill it, and it's an experience that I'm never going to forget. At the very least, I've come out of it with experience, and now I just need a little luck in getting another job (hopefully working with bears!).
Yesterday, my cat had to be put down. He was fifteen years old, so he had a long, happy life. I'm just glad I got to spend those years with him, and that he went peacefully without suffering.
