Week three is over. I've definitely gotten into the routine. I even bring my lunch every day and wear gym shoes to walk to and from the train station. In my haste of walking quickly to the train every day I take pleasure in the guy who plays the buckets on the bridge because he is always so cheerful and it puts a smile on my face. Also, they ( Read more... )

Quick update: The party was fun. The interns are pretty cool and very nice. The other people were all about the drinking which was fine but unexpected. The highlight of the night was probably smashing 7 people in a cab, laying across two guys I just met with my head out the window. I'm not sure if that's sarcasm or not. But it was a good night ( Read more... )

2nd week of work already over. 10 left to go. Well, 11 weeks, but I'm going on vacation in July. It's gone by really quickly yet really slowly. I finally met up with some other interns and they convinced me to go to this party downtown tomorrow night. I want to go but I was going to say no just cause getting there and back would be such a pain in ( Read more... )

So, I survived my first week as a working girl. I actually like taking the train downtown and being one of the mass of people that works down there. It's exciting and all grown-up like. Here's my daily schedule: leave my house at 6:15am. Catch 6:38 train from Pingree Rd. station in Crystal Lake. Arrive downtown at 7:55. Take ABN shuttle to 135 ( Read more... )

Well, junior year is over. Sad. It was an interesting year. PTTH was amazing! I had some of the best times there with my amazing roomies. This year was also really busy and I got way too involved in too many things, some good and some not. My grades kinda sucked, but life goes on ( Read more... )

Well, it's been a typical before finals weekend for Alissa. Watched a lot of tv (seriously, we watched a What Not to Wear marathon and then a Little People, Big World marathon), rented movies, stopped at the mall, and I packed nearly everything to go home. I just can't motivate myself to do anything until the last minute. But really, I think I will ( Read more... )

If it weren't for friends and fun times and freedom I would wish for school to be over immediately. And the other way around, if it weren't for classwork I would wish school to last forever and ever. I feel guilty wishing that school was over cause I don't want to wish away my time here. It is limited. Especially now that it is sinking in that ( Read more... )

Yikes! The end of the term is just racing by. I've barely had a moment to even think! Nothing real important to say. I think I may have mono. I've been feeling a swollen organ in my left side and when I started feeling sick on Sunday I realized it may be mono. However today I felt a lot better, but not completely myself. Oh, and my roomie has it ( Read more... )
