blessed be the inventor of the air conditioner
the air conditioner was turned on today in the apartment. it was so hot today. i had beads of sweat rolling off my head just from walking a couple blocks to my canvassing area. and i then continued to sweat for the entire 5 hours i walked around in the heat asking people for money. i dont seem to be raising as much money as i thought i would. i dont understand it either because i am walking around in neighborhoods where people live in huge mansion like houses, i am being as enthusiastic as i can be every time i knock on a door, and i know the speech down pat. but i still come back with small amounts of money. one would think that if i talked to 30 people (my average) that at least 5 or 10 of those people would give me money, but then one would be wrong.
i am getting pretty tan though even with sunscreen. tonight was a staff bonding thing (pizza night) but i was too tired to go with them. i gave up free pizza for a chik patty. this job is exhausting. the cause is what keeps me going a lot of the time. and i like the people a whole lot so i dont want to disappoint them. plus i know lisa would be really disappointed if i lost this job, and we really need the money right now.
i cant wait for summer to be over. i liked it better when i was in college. the school structure is my element in which i thrive best. i definitely picked the best career possible.
