...that I should really quit my job. I will start looking for others.
It's just so fake, and I feel insignificant. And embarrassed by being so dazzled by the nonprofit world when I was in college, realizing I don't want anything to do with this stuff. I'm also tired of people with egos. If you're so great, why do you work in the nonprofit world?
It was so embarrassing the other day when a woman at an event from another organization commented on how wonderful it is that I'm helping my nonprofit for free. Meaning that I've been an unpaid intern this whole time. Which is not true. I was always paid, even as an intern, and I was hired to an actual position in January. I don't now what it is about me that makes people think I'm working for free because, you know, I'm probably like some spoiled brat who can do charity work for free to place as a line on her resume. I'm not.
I can't wait until I go back to school next August. 
I want to go back to waiting tables. I edit manuscripts on the side for extra money, but somehow if I went to waiting tables again, I could at least practice being social.
