Bah, nothing is working out in my life right now. I thought that I found an apartment and that all I needed was for my parents to cosign for it. But unfortunately, I discovered yesterday that this means that I would need to take my dad to the public notary to have him sign something that would have my rent payment on it. This honestly scares the ( Read more... )

Pretty awesome weekend. Jam-packed with stuff, though. Unemployment has decreased my stamina by quite a bit, so I may have to rest for the remainder of the day to renew my reserve of energy ( Read more... )

Second eye surgery went well, just have to go get the patch taken off tomorrow so I can find out how well my vision was corrected. My left eye is 20/20, which is better than they expected with the amount of astigmatism I have. Hopefully the second eye is just as good ( Read more... )

I got my first eye surgery today (or, as Johanna would say, my first new eyeball). The surgery went well, but they made me wait forever in the surgery center before the surgery. I normally wouldn't complain too much, but I wasn't allowed to eat or drink after midnight last night and they took my glasses away, so I had really low blood sugar and I ( Read more... )

The impossible (or maybe just improbable) happened and the guy from New Mexico finally called me back. Amazing. So, they still want me but I have to wait until Sunday to find out how many weeks (and maybe how much money?) they're willing to offer me. If it's only the two week session, hell no. It will cost me a minimum of $250 to get out there, so ( Read more... )

Life has been keeping me from updating, but for the first time in a long time I can just relax today. I did some laundry and walked the dog and really I think that is enough. I graduated last weekend (yay no more school, boo leaving Bloomington and having to find a job) and I've still been going like mad since I graduated. My last two weeks of ( Read more... )

So much is changing. My sister left for Korea this morning, she'll get there early tomorrow morning. Hopefully my mom and I will be able to visit her in 6 months or so (Christmas maybe?). It hasn't quite sunk in that it's going to be quite a while before I see her ( Read more... )

"Interview" for the camp counselor job in NM went well. It was more of a conversation than an interview, very casual. I wish more interviews went that way. He didn't officially tell me I had the job, but he told me "If the long-term career of a lifetime calls you up and wants you to start working this summer, then call me so I can try to talk you ( Read more... )

Over the last two days, I've had to rush to get a bunch of stuff done only to wait. The rough draft for my capstone project was supposedly due on Monday, although I was the only person in my group that did anything. Awesome. I love my capstone group. But after I worked diligently on one of my sections, I need to wait to get my survey data so I can ( Read more... )

So, after only helping for an hour this morning at the Sycamore Land Trust, I rushed back to town only to find out that I didn't need to work because someone else is scheduled. That's ok, I'll take the day off. Not that I am being horribly productive with the extra time I've been given. My lack of motivation has certainly been my major downfall ( Read more... )
