Nonetheless, you gotta love a lit major

I just read Vic’s post and I’m feeling inclined to letting my own work rant out now. It’s terribly un-fun. Ok it’s fun in a work way, meaning I like the stuff I get to write, I like doing things like editing and prettifying articles, and thinking of advertising taglines and writing copy and all that (Oh for those who haven’t realised I’m interning at an ad/design kind of place called
first media and i basically do copywriting type work for them).
Yes it’s interesting. But I’m I hate sitting in an office for 8 hours a day just waiting for people to give me stuff to do and doing them. It’s monotonous and there’s only so much intrigue I can find in, well, writing stuff. I’ll go crazy if I had to do this for the rest of my life and whatever I do with my life in the future I’m sure as hell it won’t be...this.
Which brings me to my sad and lonely office life. Having either unwitting offended someone...or many someones...the office experience is panning out to be a largely solitary one. Either that or people are generally not friendly to interns. I don’t know but I seriously can’t be bothered to try an make people like me because it’s not worth the trouble. Seeing as I’m not friends with anyone here, and lunch is a drag because I don’t generally go with the office people. Having wonderful friends I usually have friendly non-office lunch partners maybe twice a week. And for that I am infinitely grateful.
But that doesn’t change the fact that this doesn’t help my already draggy office days. I find myself looking forward very much to whatever happy distractions and activities there are in store. I wake up much happier on days with lunch kakis. Weekends are the most blessed thing ever and have saved me from shrivelling into a friendless, spikey hermit.
WAFF the carnival was a blast and looked forward to it for a whole week. And I’m happy that I’m dropping by camp and meeting JC study mates for dinner and reunioning with Borders gang, and that I always have my wonderful USP friends to be with.
UGH BUT ITS A DRAG TO BE HERE and i think three more weeks of this will KILL ME until i DIE FROM IT.

I think you'd have to stretch the adjective quite a bit to call me pretty.
I am short and I have very insecure-making thighs and A TUMMY
(Unfortunately, my favourite foods include such things as scrambled eggs with mint and cheese, cheddar flavoured Ruffles and similar)
I have a weird nose bridge
My eyes...i dont like them either
My hair only behaves if its blow dried within an inch of its life
I have fat arms. I will have massive scallops soon if I dont watch it
I am sad. I henceforth refuse to own mirrors
But i think i have a nice smile, at least :D
