my name is geraldine, i’m your social worker

I have officially completed my studies.

Did my presentation last Wednesday, spent the next few days celebrating, and now here we are. Doing nothing, but still feeling anxious. I like being scheduled and knowing when I’m going to do things before I have to do them, but now it’s like… OYSTER WORLD. WORLD AS OYSTER. And I have no idea how to go about things, like you know, getting employed and stuffz. Yes, with a z. I’m also going to Thailand pretty damn soon, Dec 6th, and that’s for 2 weeks. I should go trip shopping, albeit I don’t think there will be a whole lot of shopping I’ll have to do for it. I will hopefully be able to buy a lot of stuff over there But I also have no job (ha, and now I sound like a complete bum) so I can’t spend all of my money otherwise my NY fund will dwindle faster than I’d like, even before getting to NY! /breathes.

I still need to make this place more ‘portfolio-y’ but I’ve gotten a bit lazy. From all of the nothing. I should perhaps start thinking about all the things I will need to make my exhibition space in the graduates show something that will stand out and get people to pay attention. /waves hand. Another day, another day. I have no idea what I want to put up, and the only things I can think of is that I need to design a new business card for myself, that being step one. Anyhoo, this is rather non-exciting.

SKINS MARATHON, however, is very exciting. Friends and I are going to have one this week and I’m a bit over-excited for it. It’ll be my 2nd watch-through of the first generation, as opposed to my gazillion viewings of the 3rd seasons. Oops. So I’m ready to get back into seasons 1 and 2 and give them the lovin’ that they need.

I wonder if I’ll have internet in Thailand/Laos – or if I’ll even have time to use them. But since I’ve never been before, I’d quite like to document the trip and such. We’ll see. I also think I should be getting some injections to protect me from diseases, and that I should have gotten them like 2 weeks ago. Oops.
