haven't updated in a while, so here it is...
tutoring is going ok. i'm getting frustrated that my students keep cancelling. i assumed i'd be doing like 12 hours a week, but i've had so many students drop that even in a good week i'm doing 8. normally i have one or two students cancel so it's more like 6. the problem is that that means i'm hardly making any money. i'm going to have to stricter next quarter in terms of allowing students to cancel.
i don't really like working at hillel so much anymore. i'm just not really picking it up as well as i thought i would. or at least not nearly as well as my coworker. i like cooking, but in a more relaxed setting. chef chris just gets mad all the time and i'd just much rather chill out. i know i ask a lot of questions but that's because i'm still getting used to this kitchen. plus he moves things around a lot and then gets annoyed when i don't know where they are. for example, he wanted me to cut up some tomatoes. we were on the meat side, so i was looking around for the tomatoes on the meat side. i asked him where the tomatoes were and he's tells me they're on the dairy side in this condescending tone. why would i be looking for the tomatoes on the dairy side? it's a meat day!
the math situation moved forward and is now on hold. i have to take a test in order to get credit for precalculus so that i can switch into the correct series. this whole thing makes no sense. i wish someone had told me that i couldn't switch from one series to another. anyway, i have to get at least an 80% to get credit for precalc, and at least a 70% to even be considered. i'm not too worried about the first half because it's stuff that i know. what i'm worried about is the second half, the trig, because that's stuff that i don't know. and i'll have about three weeks to teach it to myself. no teacher. just me and a book.
i wrote up a resume today. like, a real one. i modeled it after max's and he just got an internship at one of the big four accounting firms, so i'm confident that it looks like a real resume. it's kind of weird. i'm going to a career fair tomorrow, hopefully. i'm getting nervous already.
i'm at a very weird place in my life right now. i've spent the past few days feeling fairly naseous for the past week or so, but i'm sure i'm not sick. it's only when i start thinking about the future that my stomach starts doing cartwheels. it's just that i've been doing that a lot lately.
