Pisces are known to adapt to many different situations. They're also known to be emotional/moody. Seriously this blog can probably serve to document my apparent bi-polarness. Because tomorrow is friday. And I feel a lot more hopeful than I did on tuesday. Perhaps it's because I actually did some things at work today. Then again, maybe I just woke up on the righter side of bed.
I've been making an effort to call friends in Vancouver this week, and so far I think I've done quite well. It's wierd, I have this aversion to long phone conversations, but as soon as I'm done speaking with one of my friends, I always feel better. Perhaps this is simply a symptom of the texting generation- the more succinct, the better. But I've never had a real emotional text conversation really- except one incident where an ex told me he was hurting just as badly for another girl as I was for him, so he 'sympathized' with me. It's too hard when you can't hear the intonation and the tone of voice the person is speaking in. I mean, how was I to know if the 'sympathy' was sarcastic or sincere? Nonetheless, I think my age group is on the cusp, but I think this is what younger generations are turning to for those intense emotional moments. Isn't it easier to break up with someone remotely than to their face? It creates a disconnection and I think, more willingness to play games with people's emotions. You can't really suffer the reprocussions of your actions if you don't see a person's reaction and are affected by it.
I digress, but connecting with people is something I'd like to improve on, and perhaps that's why my week is looking up- I have several rendezvous with a few friends I haven't seen in a while this weekend.
So three things that I'm grateful for in the last 24 hours are as follows:
1. A colleague at work transferred all of my music from my ipod onto my computer (now I won't have to worry if my zombie, back from the dead ipod finally dies).
2. A professor I was worried about getting a recommendation for grad school from emailed me back within an hour of my request!
3. Haven't seen a movie in a long time, and last night saw 'The Reader' with my mom. Was a great film, really made you think. (and cry....)
