School

It's started again. Finding the right adviser made all the difference in the world. Counting the semesters, again. I only have classes two days a week, which freed me up to knock down once of my 2018 goals early.

Life

drumrolls Got a job offer! Part-time work that fits nicely when I'm not doing class work or in class itself. Don't think it will help pay for my place much out of school at this rate unless 100% goes straight to the bank - planning for at least 5% going to pocket, 15% at the most. Honestly, I didn't expect a call the day after - let alone between classes. Does it make sense to negotiate my rate up shortly after accepting? I ended with a couple dollars more pay in the last job I had in the field.

Relationship(s)

With the job part under my belt, I feel more confident heading back into 'dating'. So, I've made a commitment to push myself back out there.

On another note, I've been slacking on my relationship with self for a bit. My volunteer work has been nice tune-ups for a few years now, but I don't think I've done much to explore where I'm at now other than clearing shit that gets me out of myself. Naturally, being in a relationship can shed more light, so I have a more than a couple motives to move forward from where I've been romantically of late (nowhere).

Misc.

I completed my GIS project. Big thanks to kleinbl00 for the extra boost of information. I planned to post a stripped down version of it here (the final product was WAY too cluttered for my liking). I just need to google fixing the file address to relative for ArcGIS first. facepalm
