I could be considered a pessimist or an optimist, depending on who you talk to, but I consider myself an optimistic realist... or a cheerleader; WHOOO, GO FEY ~(ep).

I have a lot of pessimistic thoughts but I try to be as optimistic as possible; life's too short to always look at the bad side of things.

I agree 100% -- you don't want to end up deluding yourself, but at the same time you need to hope for the best or else you'll end up sabotaging yourself instead.

I usually go into things planning for and anticipating the worst so that when it doesn't happen I get to be pleasantly surprised (also, I'm going in for a face-to-face interview next Monday, so between now and then I must consider carefully whether I would prefer that job to the one I have).

Are they similar, or are they completely different(qm).

Lonely Bookworm

They're pretty similar: the new one would be 20hr/wk at $14 or $15/hr and is about an hour and a half away, but I'd be able to make it to most of my evening karate classes; my current job is 29hr/wk at around $12/hr and I work until 9pm 4/5 weekdays.

The free time sounds good, but that mileage away is tough, and the gas prices now will cost you more than that little bit of extra you'll be making -- would be worth it, though, if your expenses are not that high and that extra bit of free time allows you to do what you really want to do; it's always nice to have these kind of decisions, lol -- which job is better for me right now(qm).

Lonely Bookworm

To be fair, they haven't offered me the job yet, but I'm one of two final candidates and I have a pretty stanch supporter in someone already on their staff.

I hope everything works out for you, Fey(ep)

In unrelated events, the fair is in town for two weeks and I really want to go.

Lonely Bookworm

That sounds like lots of fun, Houkito, and I hope you're able to find or make time for it.

Sparkly Girl

It's mainly whether or not I can afford going; But I think I can at least manage enough to buy tickets to get in and some food(ep) There's a booth that sells GREAT garlic fries; emotion_drool .

Lonely Bookworm

Garlic fries sound amazing.

Sparkly Girl

I'm gonna die just thinking about them; huurughrugh.
