Who knew that being a teacher meant you'd be busy in the summer?! I had class, work, and other extracurriculars thrown in. If I had to say what the best part of summer was I think I would have to say Wednesday night's pub quizzes, though that death threat I received from a girl I've never met was a highlight as well ( Read more... )

So, Meijer has been filled with drama lately and hopefully it will be ending soon, but I need to get it out somewhere so ( Read more... )

I had my first day of training at Starbucks....and then had my last day as a cashier on Sunday. Why the disconnect? Because the service managers are the worst ever. She told me two weeks and then three weeks later she was still scheduling me. She said it was taking so long because she had to replace me. I work one fucking day a week and they ( Read more... )

Shopping generally fixes everything it seems. I took advantage of the President's Day sales since I had no work or class (NIU is closed til the 25th). I went to JCP to finally return some Christmas presents I didn't want and walked into the mother of all sales. I scoured the sales racks for nearly two hours and came up with: a wonderful brown ( Read more... )

Sorry for the confusing text message, but I wasn't sure it would go through so I kept it short. I was on campus at NIU today. I was actually about 2 blocks away from the building when the shooting occurred. I was outside looking at old growth trees on campus for class and thought it was strange there were so many cops cars whizzing past (we are ( Read more... )

So my Cons. Bio. teacher, after canceling half of the classes since the beginning of semester, has finally given out a copy of our syllabus. Well, just the schedule and it was shocking. I have to read over 3 powerpoints and 5 chapters this week to get back on track. Oh, and I have the first exam in 2 weeks. WTF? I've been academically bitch-

As I obsessively check for sub jobs, I figure that I'll write my hopes and dreams. Since that would take too long, I'll start with my future career ( Read more... )

I went to Cons. Bio. today and I LOVE my professor! He's amazing! He's a hardcore environmentalist and told the class that he's preparing for yet another lawsuit against the government regarding a reduction in crucial habitat for the pine marten in northern Wisconsin. If we help him out we'll be getting some extra credit which I thought was ( Read more... )
