Sorry

Oi. Shoe shopping sucks. After being told by a shoe store in Paris that, "we don't makes shoes that big" I have had to resort to shoe shopping by the internet. This really isn't any better.
One, my feet are huge, out of proportion, they are land skis.
Two, shoes are ass expensive.
Three, I am a poor motherfucker.
These three things become quite compounded when I am shoe shopping and premenstrual. I apologize to anyone who had to deal with me whilst I was searching for shoes online. I finally found something for relatively cheap and was able to not go to bed pissy. Thank god. So now I have cute shoes on the way and that makes me happy.

However, I am no happier about my financial situation or my prospects for the future. I have shitload of debt, a QPA that is less than stellar and only next year to make it respectable. LSE would be amazing but waaaaaaaaaay out of my league. The US isn't the place for me to study IR/European Studies. Makes sense to go to Europe, right? I could come back to Sciences-Po but do I want to? Maybe I could do Sciences-Po one year and LSE/Columbia the second year. Hold on Maria, look at your GPA, there is no chance of that happening. Also, the lack of recommendations. Sweet. Helloooooo retail!

EEEEEEEK!!!!!!

So I just had a nice AIM chat with Mrs. Boyle. She told me that she is going to talk to Marie-Helene this week and they are going to talk about and internship for me this summer! She asked about what exactly I wanted to do and got the specifics of what I am looking for. There is a change I could get paid. Here I was resigning myself to poverty for next year. Nothing is concrete yet but there is a definite chance now. I just want to have something to do this summer. EEK!

Also David and Colleen are here. It is really nice to be together again after over 2 years. It will be a fun week.

Good things

I enjoy wearing heels and walking as though I have a sense of purpose. You must wear heels. The dramatic clacking noise of the heel as it hits the ground. I dunno. It just makes me feel important. That is all.
