Oh yeah, that sounds amazing to me!
Oh geez. At least it can be triple confirmed now that she's really hunting him down. That's absurd. I bet there is no one to look into her behaviours though. Just make sure you do go to that wedding, because it'd suck to miss that because of this... well, I am pretty sure I am not allowed to use 'bad words' on the forums here, but you know as well as I what I'd like to call her I think.

Haha I think you're allowed to say it, but I get it anyway ;)
I'm just focused on getting him out of there now. Whatever the reason is, a stressful environment is not a good place to be. A job at a new place would be much better even if this woman doesn't manage to get rid of him, it's just not nice to work with people who don't want you there.

Well... there is no lie in there. Still wish the woman could get what she deserves though, since this frame-y business isn't a good attitude of hers anyway, but nothing to do about that.
How's life besides that though? Are you doing alright?

Yes, besides that all is fine... he's the only thing I have to worry about haha. I picked up a goals journal this year where you plan out where you want to be in 5 years and then every month you do four things that will bring you closer to your goal. That's pretty fun right now, and feels great to achieve things ^^

That's a pretty good thing to do! Especially with the monthly goals, those tend to help punching pessimists like me in the face (short-term goals work a lot better than long-term ones due to estimation errors and what-not). What a clever idea.

I really recommend it. I already smashed through 3 of my 4 goals this month. The last one is going to be finished too, it's just a longer term one so it won't be done until the end of the month. But I'm pretty happy with that!

Nice! I should look into that myself, yeah... though for now I'll just focus on my school deadlines since all but one are this week. xD I'm going nuts.

Deadlines are so annoying XD Although sometimes I really need them because otherwise I'm just like "which bit do I do first?!" Having the deadline at least gives me an order in which to do things XD

Very true, although having them all in the same week doesn't help since that mean you kinda have to do everything at once, especially if some of them were already longterm tasks. xD
But I managed to get one deadline done, other than having two friends look into it. It was an essay on ethical dilemmas within video games. Not my cup of tea since I usually just don't care enough about things within video games, but I found a few things that do somewhat bother me and managed to elaborate on that.

True, but I literally just work to the nearest one. Even if one is due at 9am and the next 12pm the same day, I'd work on the 9am one first :3 Focus, crack through as quickly as possible, then turn to the next one. It's good that you've finished one for sure!
