I worked on homework for so long today.
I finalized my resume and made it look all spiffy.
I wrote letters to 18 alumns asking for post-graduation advice and networking tips.
I need a break.

Yes. I just read 80 pages. And then my phone rang. It was a girl from class...err, rather a lady (40some years old)
She told me she didn't understand the project. And, as a matter of fact, I don't fully understand and my teacher wasn't very open to discussing it further. I tried to help her/explain to her as much as I could but she wanted more...and I couldn't give her more...I mean, I told her that I didn't want to give her the wrong information. And she told me she just wanted any info I had whether I thought it was correct. I gave it to her but I'll feel really bad if it was wrong info. I mean, I think (and hoping) it's correct because that's what I'm going by but I don't want to be blamed for her grade if it's wrong.
We are supposed to go observe a pre-k class as part of the project and she asked me where she should call or go. I'm not from down here so I don't know...I only know of 1 place and that's where I'm going and each member of the group is supposed to go somewhere seperate so...I told her I don't know. And I don't think she is trying to leech off of me, I think she is really just wondering but there is only so much help I can give her.
She seems very dependent...and I think she is depending on me. Which, I guess you could call flattering but, I'm not sure you'd (she'd) want to depend of me- I, for one, am trying to become indepedent so relying on me...I don't know about that :-/
And we didn't even start on the "group project" part yet. This is just the "indendent" part. eeekkk.
Ya. So I talked to her for like a half hour and now I can't get back to reading. Arg.
What do you make of it when someone says, "In the interim if you'd like to work with me until you find a full time position...I would like very much to help you with your efforts."??
jlc, you joined on my birthday. There goe smy random statement for the day.
My ears hurt SO badly right now, I'm ready to cry.
I just like...hit my head on the bathroom door somehow.
Feel better, Dancing & Mandi
I'm obsessed with the song 'Run Freedom Run' from Urinetown. It makes me so happy and I start cracking up whenever they go "literally?!.. Yes."
*Singing in Original Octave* "I'll never know What made it so exciting;Why all at once My heart took flight. I only know when he
Began to dance with me I could have danced,danced, danced all niiiiiiiiiiiight!" *sighs* Men are great.
Soapy, What have you gotten yourself into? (Or should I say who's gotten into you?)
Normally, I would come back with an equally distubing sexual remark, but I'm a little overly excited. . . .Men are great. . . .That is all.
I just survived day one with no diet soda! woooot!
Tomorrow I'm off to see the plastic surgeon.
I'm kind of nervous...
If I am out of the loop, forgive me. What are you having done?
Nothing yet. It's just a consultation visit. I'm thinking of getting dermabrasion or a chemical peel. Trying to recapture my youth, you know.
If it were possible, I'd let you have mine. Youth is overrated.

The Class just finished here. It's a very cute show, and I look forward to seeing the next episode.
I was going to watch How I Met Your Mother, but I got too distracted and turned off the TV. Perhaps now I will take a shower.
jlc, they have a temporary job for you if you're not hired full time.
You're way ahead of me on this. I figured I'd just get a "survival" job right after graduation if worse comes to worse.
I have another stupid paper due tomorrow. Bleh.
Thanks for the input, Skittles. I wasn't sure if it meant that they wanted me to work with them, as in a paying job or as in an internship-type situation that would be unpaid. I also felt like I would have to get a safety job right after graduation, especially since I'm graduating in, oh, three months.
I e-mailed them just to clarify, because I would have to relocate for either situation, which is what I want anyway. But they want to talk with me later in the week. I'm pretty excited, I guess networking does have the potential to pay off.
I got a facebook
*sigh*
In the past few hours I have:
1) Still not heard from the lady to whom I applied for a job.
2) Completed 20 pages of French homework.
3) Flushed a cricket down the toilet.
Heh, my comment wasn't all that helpful, especially since I just realized I left out an important word. :-P
I should really do my paper. It's so easy, but meh...
I knew what you meant, Skittles.
The other day, I complained about my AOL Instant Messenger not working in my campus apartment. Now today I found out that my university has now blocked it in an attempt to keep people from transfering files that may or may not have been aquired illegally. Not only have they firewalled AIM, but they have also blocked access to aol.com, which sucks because people with AOL mail accounts can no longer access their mail.
Now I'm really annoyed because one of my main forms of communication with people has been taken away. I didn't just use AIM for personal use, but I also used AIM chat when I had group projects for a various class. Hopefully enough students will complain so that the administration will restore it.

I just read my dad's blog, which I haven't done in a very long time. Apparentally, he's being evicted from his apartment, and he's relocating to No. Cal to stay with a friend so he won't be homeless. And to think I was going to call him at his apartment this weekend...
I cried a little about that tonight, but I'll also say my prayers tonight and hope to God he'll be okay.
