Waiting for news... about many things
May. 12th, 2024 12:42 pm...(*sighs*)... Waiting sucks.
We're approaching that time of year when the days of my work contract are dwindling, and I can't make concrete plans for anything after July... Because the official talks about signing a new work contract have barely started. At least, at my level. The local board of education and the company I work for have to hash out all the details first, and I probably won't get asked the big question until June. JUNE. I really really hope that I hear something about it by the end of May, though. (It's very doubtful, but I can hope. >:P)
Besides my personal "hmm, where will I be living and working in August, I wonder..." concerns, I've got multiple people in my life asking me about it and serious adult life things (some mundane and all important) that depend on me making arrangements / updating information. x__X
Plus, there's a huge, big, fun 3-day event I wanna go to in April 2025 that I cannot buy tickets for yet, and the tickets went on sale a week ago. D:
There's another 1- or 2-day event in September (at the same venue actually -- a venue I am well-acquainted with XD) that I might attend, but I don't have to worry about those tickets for a while.
There's a concert here in July that I would love to go to, but I kinda accidentally missed my chances (there were two big chances), because I couldn't decide what to do about it... and partly because I didn't know if a friend could/would go with me.
Oh, but one good thing, assuming I'll still be here for it: my friend and her husband are planning to visit Japan in October! :D I must see them! I haven't met him yet, and I haven't seen her since she moved from Kanagawa Prefecture to Florida.
But yeah... Waiting really sucks.
