Ugh, long day. Worked from 11-6, then my grandparents came to pick me up!!!! I hadn't seen them since Thanksgiving. We went to dinner at The Social. Yummy food. So full. Really tired too, so i'm not speaking eloquently. They changed the entire work schedule for the weekend. I hate when they do that, because even though I'm picking up a few hours, I ( Read more... )

I spent 3 hours today sitting in a store...reading...and getting paid for it :) That's right, I made another whopping $17.13 at Central Park today, but technically that's about how much I earned (well, probably a little more than that) after taxes. I'm now halfway done with my Italy/Florence book. Learned a heck of a lot about Tuscany, and I can't ( Read more... )

Slept in today for the first real time since I've been home. It was definitely nice. Then I had work from 3-8, though it was only 3-6:15 because we made a whopping $14 in 3 hours, so we closed early. Of course I have to work there tomorrow from 3-8, so I'm planning on bringing my laptop and a dvd :) I kind of like it at central park though - it's a ( Read more... )

I still had to wake up early this morning because the cleaning people were supposed to come at 8. Of course they didn't show up til 11:30, but I still got up at 7:30, went for a run, watched Price is Right (man, I missed that show) and watched Mickey Blue Eyes (great funny movie ( Read more... )

I worked a total of 16.5 hours this weekend, and that's a lot considering my hours were stingy last summer and I'm only here for a couple of weeks. I'm excited, but wiped though. It was really good to see everyone again, and now that I'm on the "experienced" side (no longer a newbie, that is), I am treated more like an equal by most people. I ( Read more... )

I'd forgotten what it feels like to have a do-nothing day. But today was one of those ( Read more... )

So it's been a while since I last updated, I know. Things have been, well, crazy to say the least. Finals finished. I pulled a 3.0 for the semester, good considering my performance last semester. Too bad I won't be getting a scholarship next year, but I honestly think I screwed that up before I knew I was even getting it. Scholarships are pry ( Read more... )

Hello everyone. I'm now a college sophomore. Before you get jealous or anything, let it sink in...I know that's what I still have to do. More than 3 whole months of freedom ( Read more... )

The feeling of completeness has not quite hit yet because I still have 2 more finals to study for and complete (not to mention get ok grades on). Thursday and Friday were such fun days. Thursday Tim and I took the whole day to go tie shopping (yes, he is becoming a man ;) ), and walk through Boston. The tulips in the public garden were amazing! ( Read more... )
