#I really do love my job

[jamietarttsnorthernattitude]

It’s already scream into the void and cry kind of day at work and I haven’t even been here two hours.

sometimes you've just gotta put on a grungy little outfit and walk to the dollar store for an energy drink to feel like a gremlin instead of a healthcare pawn

ive literally been so bored lately that I've just been pacing around outside and it's gotten to where the grass is gone 😭 I tried to get a summer job but nobody got back to me so I just have to wait for an eternity to get back to work

[othervee]

I have to go back to work tomorrow and I don't want to.

Waaaaaahhhhh.

ME/CFS is kicking my ass lately. The job that I'm working - and I love! - is too much. I'm applying for other positions, hoping to find part time work, but there aren't many options for that right now.

It's not all sad though, the realization I can't keep doing this has motivated me to actually take the step and start the application for my Masters in Counselling Psychology program instead of just thinking about it. Fingers crossed I'll be starting in September.

In a perfect world, I'll get a 20hrs a week position and do my MACP work on my off days and life will be smooth and predictable. In the real world, it probably won't go quite that smoothly, but I'm hoping something will work out. I really would like to keep working while I do my program if possible.

I also need to call my Dr because I'm overdue for bloodwork and I probably should have let them know I'm working full time in case there were any restrictions I needed to be aware of. Instead I just jumped in, cosplaying as a healthy person while at work and then existing as a couch lump on my off days. This is not a way to live.

Godzilla x Kong opening weekend is coming to a close and I'm still on a high from seeing it twice in dolby and going all out at work with a team godzilla shirt and wearing my godzilla plush backpack. I only got a huge burn yesterday and fell flat on my face today lol. Gonna be sore this week but oh what a good weekend. Also our Godzilla x Kong cups and buckets sold hella fast. Hated having to tell people we were sold out. :(

the most difficult thing about growing as a person socially, as in getting out of your shell and noticing that you are, is that there will still be times when it doesn’t feel like you’ve grown at all! times when you can’t really connect with anyone around you, times when you fail to enter into an existing conversation, times when you say the wrong thing (or nothing at all when in hindsight you probably should’ve). but that’s also kind of the best thing, because that’s the thing that helps you realize that sometimes, it’s not you or your lack of skills or any shortcoming. sometimes certain environments just aren’t for you and certain people aren’t your people, and that’s okay. that’s human. it’s okay to not feel the progress you have made all the time.

One Piece Live action season 1 + hints or similarities to future One Piece moments (specifically after East Blue saga) - part 1: episodes 1-3

This wasn't meant to be a comparison between the live action and the animanga, but more so seeing these added/modified scenes that differ from the manga, yet with some of the acting/writing includes clues and hints to different and future canon material, or even characterization that necessary doesn't fit East Blue yet, but fits well enough into later arcs.

Luffy not knowing his world directions both in Opla (ep 1) /// Skypiea arc, in anime ep 168. But it could be for honestly any other arc (Funny thing is, in Opla he rang the bell that unfortunately alerted Alvida's crew, and only when I was rewatching that scene it made me connect it with the great Luffy moment at the end of Skypiea.)

The matches that Zoro has on the Island of Sixis in Opla ep 1, possibly manufactured on Baldimore (?), with a name Beast of Baldimore. /// After Sabaody Archipelago Franky was sent to Baldimore by Kuma, finding Vegapunk's homeland and laboratory, and also developing more of his science projects, as well as causing funny incidents, such as the Burning Beast. (It has probably nothing to do with the matches, except for the 'tiger on fire' motif and the name of Baldimore, but the details of Opla are just so fun!)

Zoro's first meeting with Luffy in Opla episode 1 is really different but fun nonetheless, especially with wording of the line that he doesn't want to 'play pirates' with Luffy. It's such a great setup line for his development to truly be one of the very first to understand how much Luffy means everything he's doing /// Zoro in ep. 323 Post Enies Lobby arc, making sure both his crew and the audience know how seriously he takes being part of Luffy's crew and what it means for future arcs.

Opla ep 2, Luffy mentioning Shanks' way of thinking about fighting (or not fighting someone who's not worth it) /// ep. 146 Jaya arc, Luffy saying to Zoro not to fight Bellamy's crew, which was direct influence from Shanks not fighting the Mountain bandits in the first chapters of the manga. It's interesting that for both of these scenes both Zoro and Nami are there to hear this.

This is just a fun bit, but seeing Nami excited about having a bath was cute. Opla ep 3 /// anime ep. 326, just after they get Sunny and everyone was finding out what space there is for them.

Garp and Koby playing the game of Go, Opla ep 3 /// CP0 agents playing Go while discussing the outcome of Strawhats & Oden's crew's raid on Onigashima against Kaido. It seems like a game that maybe Marines play more/enjoy (?) & above, up to CP ranks.

Usopp 'retelling' a story about eating a dragon, Opla ep 3 /// Punk Hazard ep 580, Zoro killing the dragon and planning with Luffy what's the best way to cook and eat it. Lol. In next chapters Luffy was carrying a big chunk of it, seemingly ate a bit part of the dragon already.

This one is self explanatory. Zoro is so gone for Luffy in Opla it's insane. Every time I remember that I get emo. ep 3. /// One of the first really fond smiles that Zoro keeps smiling at Luffy, a mixture of proud and understanding how Luffy works. ep 63, but it's just so much better in the manga, just look at it. Smitten™ (ch. 104)

Went to apply for a job, midway through I learned that the person hiring is someone I respect very, very much in my field (who I have never spoken to), then saw the application site was closed (How Did I Miss the Deadline for this Really Cool Job!!!!) and then saw that it was the website's fault and that they were taking applications through LinkedIn DM's. So I did the premium trial & sent my reel in, and they told me they're sending it to recruitment/leads and that it's a good reel!!!! And then the person I have respected for years sent me a friend request!

I'm beside myself!!
