I realized just how tiny it looks after posting.:)

[katayla.livejournal.com]

A little small, I guess, but I kinda prefer that to the huge ones! :)

[place-to-hide.livejournal.com]

Yeah, dunno why it came out small.:) You couldn't really read it.

[katayla.livejournal.com]

I can read it! It's the perfect font size for me. :)

HELLO.

[katayla.livejournal.com]

HEY! HOW WAS YOUR VACATION??

(I'm missing Farscape especially bad today--I'm used to watching an ep on Sundays!!)

[torigates.livejournal.com]

IT WAS OKAY. A bit boring a times, but nice to spend some time with the fam.

OH ME TOO. Sunday is Farscape day! But I rather talk about it with you and Ney, so it's good to wait.

[katayla.livejournal.com]

Yeah, family's important (or so I've heard!).

Same! And it'll give us something to look forward to. And this is your last week of work, right?

[torigates.livejournal.com]

YES IT IS MY LAST WEEK OF WORK, THANK GOD.

They offered me the same position next summer, so I think at least for now I will accept.

[katayla.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you can always change your mind later, right?

[torigates.livejournal.com]

Exactly. Even though I'll feel bad if it ends up I have to leave them hanging, I think it's best to have something to fall back on.

[katayla.livejournal.com]

Yeah, definitely. I mean, unfortunately a degree guarantees nothing. There are sooooo many educated, unemployed people on my flist.

[torigates.livejournal.com]

Worst comes to worst I work as a receptionist by day, PhD student by night (hahahha, I am only kind of kidding - what has my life come to?)

[katayla.livejournal.com]

LOL! Education is addicting! I'm glad to be done, but I'm so good at it, lol!

[torigates.livejournal.com]

My dad was asking me today if I was going to do my PhD, and I said, NO... well not right away. OH GOD MY LIFE. And I started thinking about it a little, so we shall see.

[katayla.livejournal.com]

I always go back and forth on whether I want more education. Right now, I definitely want to MAKE SOME MONEY, but I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up back at school. Probably studying something entirely new, haha.

[torigates.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I mean that's the great thing about our generation! We don't have to get a job and then work it for the rest of our lives. Things can be temporary! That's not really an option our parents had.

[katayla.livejournal.com]

And it really does seem like such a . . . common thing to do, you know? Like you're not even expected to keep a job for all that long!

[torigates.livejournal.com]

Yeah! That's why even though I am scared... I am not terrified. Or I am but not as much as I potentially could be? It's not the end of the world if I have to work as a receptionist for a few years.

[katayla.livejournal.com]

Yeah, one of my friends worked as a receptionist in a law office for a couple of years, then got into doing a little paralegal work and is now back at school for a master's in education . . . and her original degree was in psychology!

So you never know. That's what I'm trying to tell myself, too. There's something out there for me! (Probably would help if I applied for some more jobs.)

[torigates.livejournal.com]

Exactly, we just have to keep telling ourselves these things. Something is going to come along sooner or later.

[happyhappenings.livejournal.com]

Let's go back to summer. :(

[katayla.livejournal.com]

It went by so quickly this year!
