Day 192..#Almost 10 Hours..
I went to bed last night at 22:35.
I woke up this morning at 7:14am.
I was asleep almost 10 hours. TEN hours.
I don’t remember the last time I went to sleep and didn’t wake up in the middle of the night for whatever reason, let alone sleeping for almost 10 hours straight only to wake up and feel refreshed.
Saying that, I did a lot yesterday.
I didn’t realise how sad I was about not getting the job I’d applied for..spending half the day applying for other jobs and not being successful at those applications either.
I didn’t realise how much energy rejection takes out of you. It’s draining.
I don’t really know what else to do. I can sit here twiddling my thumbs..but for how long?
I’m back home (for good) in just over two weeks..and I still haven’t started packing yet..
I will start..eventually. I just don’t feel like doing so right now.
Time is going by really slowly.
I have to go into University to sort something out, but the office I need doesn’t open until 10am. It only takes me 25 minutes to get to University (at most) and it’s only 8:15am.
*sigh*
Today will be a better day. Today will be a better day..

Confessions of an Apple Junkie 
I’m jealous of the sleep. I’m on summer holiday right now but have been getting up early each morning to see my man off to work. Today I was up at 6.15am and tomorrow I need to get up at 5.30am and I’m drained by it! I need sleep! The problem is that I can’t go back to sleep after he’s gone as I worry that I’m wasting the day!
I’m really sorry to hear about the job. Rejection is utterly draining, the important thing is to try not to take it personally, you know? There are so many people out there striving for the jobs and my advice is not to be disheartened – what’s for you won’t go by you!
My last bit of advice is to make the most of Lisbon/Portugal before you’re back home and needing to get back into the serious working world. Have fun, enjoy yourself! 🙂
I would go back to sleep for a little bit..and set an alarm for like 7:30/8am..that way I wouldn’t be crazy tired later on..
I’m trying to not take it personally you know..It’s a learning curve to say the least!!
Enjoy Lisbon..meh..I think I just wanna go home now..idleness is boring..not having anything to do..boring..I’ve done the tourist thing..I’ll do it again next week though..only because it’s supposed to be 40 degrees..lol
😦 Too much Lisbon, lol! I can understand that you’re itching to get home, you must be missing your family and friends.
You should just organise some parties if your friends are still in Lisbon. 🙂
Not missing them..missing the country.
I don’t have friends here..I’m the last one left anyway..
😦 That’s rotten! Well, just indulge in some ‘you’ time! 🙂 It’ll pass quicker than you think…
Yep! Hopefully!
I haven’t gotten 5 hours of sleep without waking up.
Hang in there, the right job for you is still out there waiting for you. *hug*
I usually sleep between 6 and 8..so imagine my confusion when I woke up!
Thanks for the encouragement..it means a lot 🙂
I wouldn’t worry too much about getting rejected for jobs. I know it’s easy to say “don’t worry” but I have really been there. I graduated into 2009 and didn’t get a graduate job until the very end of 2010. We are in a bad financial climate so no jobs unfortunatly. Keep being positive and you will attrack the positive energy you need :D. Good luck!
Thank you! I will do just that!
