I’m really missing unemployment now; the days and hours that I had to take things slow and do what I needed to do, what I wanted to do. Now, I find myself constantly drained, having little desire to do much of anything, except laze around and sleep. Perhaps I’m a bit hard on myself though, as I still seem to fill my days off with things to do. I’m just still not used to this ridiculous work schedule or the fact that I don’t have as much free time as I did three weeks ago. I also don’t think that the schedule itself and the long hours are draining, since I was nearly always on the move on Sherkin. On the island, I still got outside, socialized with my mates, and had inspiration to write.
Now, it feels as if the type of work and the environment are draining my soul. I suppose that comes with working for a corporation. I expected and tried to prepare myself for the worst going into this position, but maybe it was more than I anticipated. I’m holding out to hear from my first choice internship, which should be contacting applicants in mid-March. I really hope to get the position, but if not, I’ve just got to start searching again, and I’ll certainly be kept occupied in the meantime.
