Ahhhh, need to stop watching Korean Dramas. They suck you in!! It's like there's a mental wavelength of narcotics going on! And then I get angry and start yelling at my computer!
...This can't be healthy for my relationship, lol. I need to stop imagining real life in these dramas. orz
Cooked Nong Shim ramen for dinner. My tummy is bloated from all the extra water I added for soup. I didn't have anything to throw in so I "borrowed without intent to replace" an egg from the grandparent-in-laws (MY COUSIN'S, NOT MINE). They've been coming home around 9 these days, thank god. Less to worry about. Found a frozen wonton soup that K bought me a while back. Hello tomorrow's lunch at work!
Work is alright lately. Been distracted with trying to find another place to live so I've been in a flighty state. Still getting my stuff done at least. (Hope I don't get fired, but then again, I'm always hoping that.)
On a loose-ended tangent, me and serious trust issues. Is it normal for people to get jealous so easily? Buh. I have a hard time figuring out how to let things go. That forgive and forget thing? Man, forgetting is so bloody hard!

tsururu gave me this shark for my cubicle. It has a top jaw you can pull back and teeth that you can push into the jaw. You keep trying to push all the teeth down until randomly the shark's mouth will slam shut- in which case you better hope you have good reflexes and pull your hand back fast enough. It's currently the amusement of my office. So far I've had one of the judges, two of the lawyers and handfuls of co-workers on the west wing play with it. One co-worker got "bitten" 3 times in a row. So funny to watch! I want to film it and put it on youtube, haha!

Things I noticed about DC:
-People are all in a hurry. Shuffle shuffle shuffle.
-BIG GIANT METRO SYSTEM. Very convenient...kinda stuffy.
-Tourists are very obviously tourist.
-ALL THE KIDS AROUND NATIONAL MALL wtf stop yelling
-Never seen this many people in dark suits and federal badges. I'm surprised there's any crime around here AT ALL.
-People are nice when you actually talk to them.
-Don't drive here. o___O HONK HONK + Roundabouts
-Ooooo...shiny Federal buildings!
RE: Assesment
Passed two sections but failed the third, Case Management. I only got a 4.9 when passing is 5.25. I was really sad and disappointed all yesterday as I rode the plane back but after thinking it over, I realized I really did need more experience and studying in how to deal with management. I did pass the two sections that were worrying me the most (the ones dealing with people, haha) so failing the written section was really a slap in the face. I'm pretty certain it was my final solutions for the problem that caused me to not pass, so I'll spend this year doing some managment studying and try again next year! Hopefully, I'll be able to pass the written in November and start this lovely (and long) process all over again. This is my dream job and I don't plan on giving up on it anytime soon! Thanks for the encouragment, ya'll. :)
Also, you guys update a lot. I've spent most of my lunch break reading back entries on f-list. srsly. (Instant noodles ftw since my paycheck hasn't gone into my account due to payroll snafu :|)
I MISSED YOU ALL ;_;
