So today I found out that I can't work this week - just like last week - and two weeks in late June/early July. I'm sure glad these people feel like they can jerk me around and just have me not come in to work...I didn't really need the money (***note excessive sarcasm***).

Yes, yes, I know, I don't post nearly often enough. I'm sorry. Life has been busy, but good, I would say. I still haven't heard from U Penn, but I probably should within the week. Either way I think I'm going to stay here, though ( Read more... )

Wow - for not being a music major in, I sure do manage to fill up my time somehow. We're officially 1/2 done with spring quarter at NU and that makes me really happy...even though most of my friends are either already home or will be home in a week or two. I'm just going to keep myself isolated in the NU bubble in that sense, and not let myself ( Read more... )
