ignipes1) Post a list of five things you currently love/like, and five things you currently hate/dislike.
2) They can be people, places, things, ideas, whatever.
3) Tag five people to do this.LOVE1. The Olympics. All of it. The joy. The tears. The speed. The sweat. I just can't stop watching. (except when I have to, to go to work). I'm so proud of all the athletes, even the American gymnasts who came from a way off day to win one-two in the all-around. Natsia Liukin I think, looks so serious people don't automatically like her, but then when she's done with her routine and hugs her dad... I just LOVE it. Lotche, when he gave the flowers to his mom. *little tear of Love* And SHOWJUMPING is this weekend!! Let me dance for joy.
2. Checking things off my to-do list. (Especially the things that have been there for a very longs time.)
3. Scheduling more trips this fall! I have two weeks in October to finish my internship search. (I was hesitant to mention it or jinx it, but the practice I REALLY want to work at when I graduate sent an email last week to see whether I was serious about applying and whether I could come to visit again this fall. That's like a second interview, right?) I think I might head out to Colorado again, too.
4. Days off. I feel like I forget what it's like to have a day where my time is entirely my own, with no need to answer to anyone. I love it.
5. Blue sky and sun. It's a perfect summer day, my morning glories just started to blossom and I think I'll go take my dog for a walk in it.
6. (because who can pick just five?) I am SO DAMN EXCITED for season 4 of Supernatural, you guys. I can't even begin to tell you (and about half of you know exactly what I mean). I've been rewatching S3, and I like it a whole lot better in one continous play. There's a lot more coherence than I was aware of watching it piecemeal. I might've gotten choked up more than once during the christmas ep, I adore the Ghostfaces, Henricksen has to come back (even as a snarky ghost), and I really miss Ruby already. And the promo pics for the season opener? AIeeee!!!!
Hate1. I am not a fan of the claustrophobia of the small animal hospital at school. There's a lot more people working in a lot less space, with much noisier animals and no windows. Sometimes I just take a dog and bring it out for a walk so that I can breathe (and also so the animal can pee). Sometimes there isn't even enough time for that.
2. Prepping for National Veterinary Board Exams. *gulp* 'nuff said.
3. Relationships. I joined Match.com for like three months, talked to a couple of people online who didn't totally creep me out. Went on a date with one of them. And now that I've kinda decided I don't want to put the effort into pursuing any kind of relationship at this stage in my life, I feel all guilty about it. WTF, brain?
4. Filling up my gas tank. I've got it down to once every three weeks by combining trips and refusing to leave home more than once per day unless absolutely necessary. Gas prices may be "coming down" but they still suck. Put me in line for the first functional fuel cell cars, and send me out on the hydrogen highway plsthnks.
5. Not having the time to run recently. :( I need a race on the horizon to kick me back in gear.
Actually, that was a pretty good meme. Put that way, there's a lot more good in life right now than bad. That makes me happy. :D
