^Good luck!!!!! If you made it to the 2nd round, you must have done well enough in the 1st.

Tomorrow, we're doing a 2 day Charity Crusade at work, raising money to expand the secondary school in Mannya, which is the Ugandan village that we sponsor/raise money to give a better quality of life and teach them things to make themselves sustainable, and I've painted a T-shirt, and I'm going to also paint my face.
As the store manager, I want to get a really good ration of Charity sales so that I can hopefully go and visit Mannya.

eee, leaving for a job interview in 40minutes. Even though I already know I'm probably not going to get the job (this is the 2nd round and I didn't do very well in the first) I'm suddenly very nervous. Good thing I haven't had any coffee yet.

Good luck, Nielsface! Even though the interview is probably over by now...

It's over and it was mostly a big bowl of poo.

Still, I found out that more than 30 people applied for the job, and only 6 got to the final round, so yay.

It's at the place where I did my internship, and everyone there said they wanted me to get it (instead of another girl who was there for almost twice as long as I was), yay. But it's for a government job so they can't just hire anyone, there's tests and interviews and the person with the highest score gets the job.  I still have a tiny chance, but I'm not counting on it. (but I learned a lot from it for future interviews)

so, yesterday i went to see a movie at my friend/hairstylist's place...
now he knows everything about me being a lesbian AND being really in love with my gf,
i thought it'd be ''safe'' to go, as friends.
we watched the royal tenenbaums, but i could feel that he was a bit TOO cuddly...
i mean, i am cuddly with my male friends, but only those that i know well enough,
not new friends. so i discretely slept away when he was taking my hands or caressing my hair and stuff...
after the movie ended he walked me home and told me he likes me. which was awkward.
but that he wants to stay friends, and he texted me right after ''you knew that i liked you a looot, so i told you out of sincerity.
i think i'll be very happy with your friendship!''
nothing bad happened, it's not like i feel ''molested''or anything, so this hasn't ruined my day,
but i wonder, was it really necessary?
i mean, if he wants my friendship, i think it would have been better not to make things awkward?

some people have to try, to be sure

some of those will stop, others won't

if he's the second sub-type, you can let him go

yeah, i understand trying once...
i suppose that if i do seem him again, it will be in public though (like, a drink in a pub or something) because - though he's pretty harmless, i guess - some things really made me kinda uncomfortable (like him asking me if i wanted to sleep at his place...even before telling me he liked me, uhm).

Hey Niels, in case you hadn't already figured it out:
If you had really done terribly at the first interview, they wouldn't have asked you to come back.   O0

orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...

Maybe she'll meet you, realize what a great person you are (and what an adorable couple you two are),
and completely revise her narrow views.   O0

Look for the positive!   :)






Okay, don't hold your breath waiting for her to come around, but it could happen....

Not necessary to be sure, but to feel a little more confortable. I've been on his side more than once, and I felt the need of being honest with myself and the other. Was that necessary? Maybe for the girl it wasnt. Was it for me? Definitely. Even that it meant these girls would not be the same anymore. And I mean: from "hey! lets go for a walk, have a lunch, at ice cream, and have an almost date like evening" to "I told I was going to send you an e-mail but I was just being nice."

It is hard to explain why took this step, but I tell you it took off a huge weight from my shoulders when I did.

Some of my friends need other friends to talk to. I've got too much on my plate right now to deal with all this drama I'm not a part of. Sounds extremely bitchy and self-centered, I know...

After my family being around me all day I'm finally alone.
It's been an incredibly difficult day and I'm glad to be alone now and know that nobody will come into my room.
I can finally fucking cry.
