There is never enough time to do everything you plan to do. This job, as unstressful as it can be at times, seriously takes up a lot of my time. Monday through Friday, from 1 to 9:30 (the most active parts of the day for the average person) I am at work. I'm sitting pretty much the entire day, but it's weird at how tired it actually makes me. On ( Read more... )

My first week of work is officially over. I actually like my job. I don't love it yet, but we'll see if that changes in the future. The only con I have is the hours. 1-9:30, blah. That's the "fun" time of the day. That's when you should be planning to catch evening movies with friends, or meet someone for a dinner somewhere. Me? I'm at work. But it ( Read more... )

So I am waiting for my mom's plane to land here at RDU. She was supposed to land at 10:59, but I get a call saying that she hasn't even left. This was at 10:50. So now I can't leave and have to wait an extra hour and a half before she gets here. As long as she has a safe flight I'll be fine. I just wish I wasn't so tired. I didn't bring my ( Read more... )

I've been out of school for over a month now. Up until yesterday I was unemployed. That's right. Just yesterday I was finally offered a position with a company that I was trying to get in with since mid-April. Talk about running me through the wringer! But yes, I am employed now. Well, sort of. Still have to get my drug screen done (which better ( Read more... )

I just saw an incredible movie. I've really started to get into movies with underlying meaning and empowering messages. First it was The Pursuit of Happyness, and today, just a few minutes ago, it was Freedom Writers. That was a great movie. I must add it to my collection ( Read more... )

Man, oh man. This semester is tough already. Why couldn't my last semester be filled with few class and good times? Well, I have the good times still, albeit far in between, but these classes... whew ( Read more... )

I am so grateful for my work study. I don't want it to come across that I'm not, but I seriously hate that job. Well, okay, it's not really the job I hate. It's my boss. I don't even hate her since hate is a strong word. I seriously dislike her though. Dr. Hilton is just a... AHHHHHHH!!! She's a bitter woman of a half-century, I'm sure, who just ( Read more... )

I should be getting ready to go to sleep. I have a long day tomorrow. Well, the time has come. My grandmother is going to go through her first round of chemotherapy this Friday. I'm so nervous for her because I don't know how she is going to react to it. I had this weekend all planned out, too. It's Homecoming at school and I was going to go to ( Read more... )

I've reached a milestone. I've entered my last semester here at UNC Pembroke. I couldn't be happier. Then again, I couldn't be more afraid. Once I graduate, that's it. I'm out in the real world. Well, for at least a year. I'm sticking by my guns and am still going to take a year off. Depending on where I get a job, graduate school should be my main ( Read more... )

All I have to say is that I love my new cell phone. I am doing this entry from it. I love my parents and I thank them from the bottom of my heart for it. WOO HOO!
