to do list

Eeek. The things I have to do this week are just far too numerous and scary for me to even start on them. But start I must. Here we go:

1. Throw out all the crap that is in my room. It is most obviously crap, since I have been doing without it for three years already. However, I have a feeling that I will have my "that might come in useful someday" hat on, which makes chucking large amounts of non-useful belongings rather hard.

2. Once a suitable space has been cleared, I must unpack the 13 or so boxes in my room that are filed with belongings that I actually do use. There are too many things for my room, and this stage will inevitably be a very depressing, boring nightmare.

3. Rewrite my CV to make me endlessly employable. I will market myself as a flexible person who loves to work with people, has an eye for detail but can see the big picture, fluent in 8 languages, including three computer ones, as well as being willing and able to go and pick up the boss's dry cleaning and think that I am making a meaningful contribution to the workplace. Ha.

4. Find a dress, shoes, jewellery etc for the grad ball on Saturday.

5. Write thank you notes. I actually like this one.

See? This is going to take forever, but I only have until Thursday to get it all done. Plus, none of it is actually going to be fun. I don't think I like being a graduate.

However, there is something I do like: Andy Roddick. His post-match interview on the bbc was just brilliant. Humble, funny, perfect. I have a new crush. Swoon.
