so it's been awhile, eh?
since i last wrote i've skipped many of classes, slept a lot and went on spring break. while i would elaborate on the former two, there's really not much to say, other than my classes are not really that challenging this semester, and thus i often choose to sleep instead of attending them.
senioritis? maybe.
spring break was good, although this year i haven't been that stressed out so it wasn't as if i absolutley NEEDED a vacation. but who ever complains about taking a vacation? not me. my family went to hawaii again, and it was wonderful to sit around and do absolutely nothing. i read four books in seven days. I sat by the pool and read, sat by the ocean and read, sat on the patio overlooking the ocean and read, and when it was dark out, i sat in our condo and read. it was nice to say the least. steve didn't come with this year so i missed him a lot - mostly because it's so beautiful i like to share the experience with him. but it was good practice for when i'm gone for six weeks in australia.
oh yeah...and since my last update i've decided FOR SURE - as in mailed in the non-refundable $500 deposit - that I'm going to australia. before that I just couldn't make up my mind about going or not, because i'm so freaked out about finding a job. i figured that maybe if i didn't go it would increase my chances of finding a job sooner since I could start sooner. But alas, myself along with everyone else agreed that i would regret not taking the time to go - since when else would i get there? so that's it. i'm going. eeek.
as much as i'm excited about going, i'm still really nervous. i've never been that far away from home before or away from steve that long. and while i know deep down that it will be an experience of a lifetime, i'm still freaked out about it. i just don't want to come home so drastically changed that i can't get along with anyone.
in other news...i had a really good weekend this weekend. friday and sunday steve and i attended the last wild games of the season. they won both, so they were a lot of fun. friday night we went out afterwards, and then saturday i volunteered and then went to "girls night." basically i taught poker to steve's brother's girlfriend, and a bunch of other great girls i know through steve and his brother. it was really good fine and i genuinely had a good time.
after a great weekend, yesterday kind of sucked. I found out that i didn't get this internship i applied for at Wells Fargo. In their rejection letter it sounds like they liked me, but they didn't hire me because I'm not "available at least four weekday afternoons." which is fair, because on tuesdays and thursdays i have class from 12:45 - 5:15. or they could just be using that as a conveinent excuse. i don't know.
I also had an interview for a full time job last friday, and i felt that it went well, although i can never tell if the person likes me, or they're just being friendly. with this rejection from wells fargo, i'm scared that they also aren't going to hire me because, since i'm going to australia, i can't start until august first. it's just really frustrating right now trying to find a job.
i suppose that's enough for now...enjoy the beautiful spring days!
goodnight all!
