went to the interview. the position sounds great. company sounds great - lots of opportunity. now i wait. i think i 'interviewed' well - and with 3 different people. i find out next week if there'll be a next step.

the interview got me thinking though. i really want to be happy. yes goals for the future are good things - help to keep you on track. but what sense does it make, if you are not happy right now? today? if i died today, my tombstone wouldn't read "She died happy...", cause i'm not really. if i don't get this job, i think that'll be the end of me working in offices. i'll stay where i am as long as i can, but i think i'd be happier in pursuing a career in fitness. maybe become a personal trainer, too. work only part-time if i have to. i'd rather be poor and happy - then have money and be sad and not enjoying life. i want to die happy.

went to the gym last night. did the 'basic no bounce'. it was an instructor in training. she was really off last night. music was too fast, she was off phrase and combo's were to hard for her to cue correctly for a basic class. but, it's good that it happened. she'd been doing ok, (just ok - cueing and being on beat, doesn't come naturally to her) up till now. we all have a class that goes horribly wrong. once that happens, you can only get better. then i did the 'step III' after. took it really low. was good. everyone thinks i look so 'cool' when i do Roxanne's step classes. i'm just taking it down to my level and have fun with it. by the way, Roxanne twisted her ankle, while teaching! then preceded to finish the class while sitting down with her ankle on ice, calling out the combo's! hilarious!

not much going on. well... work has slowed down. feeling a little bored. hope that some more duties get added. really, really hope so...

got a call to go to an interview. wasn't looking, but they had my resume from awhile ago. so i'm going to go and see. it's with a company in the fashion industry, so who knows...

saw some weird 'wormy' things when walking into work today. mushy worms don't bother me, but these looked like chopped in half gray worms and they were rolling back and forth on the ground! gross!
