Ok so I am going to try to keep updating on a regular basis. So basically I am trying to get a job at St. Lawrence University so that I can quit the theater. Things are getting way too stressful there and I am really sick of it. I can't deal. I am an assistant manager which evidentally means nothing anymore, I am reduced to basically being a cashier because my manager doesn't want assistant managers, she wants to do everything on her own, which she doesnt do. She just lets everything go, so rather than having me do it, she rather I sit and twittle my thumbs and not be productive cause she insists that I think she doesnt know how to do her job when I do those things. Well correct me if I am wrong, but the title of assistant manager really says that I am to assist the manager, and she won't let me. So I have let everything go and basically things are going to hell. What gets me though is that, I feel like I am not giving 100% on the job and I hate that, I feel like I am half assing everything, and I dont like feeling that way.
As far as leap is concerned I am just sick of group homes. I can not wait to get my degree and get the Hell outta here and get a real job. I dont know how people do this kind of work for 20+ years, I would go insane. But, I have dreams and ambitions and they dont I guess. LOL I mean it is one thing to be in administration but to work in a group home your whole life, I couldnt do it.
So I found out a friend of mine has HIV. I would rather not reveal the name, and even though he has moved away and we dont talk much anymore, I do think about him from time to time and I feel really bad for him. I wish there was something I coudl do. It really hits home now, I mean, I have always known the risks of getting HIV and all but I never knew anyone with it, and now I do, it is really scary. In some ways he may have been asking for it because of his actions, but I cant help wishing it wasn't him, because I don't think anyone deserves to get it.
On other notes, school starts on Tue. I am kinda excited but mostly just cause I am that much closer to graduating. They finally got a new program director for my program. I met with him this summer he is pretty nice and seems to have alot of knowledge. I think I am going to like working with him cause now is the time for me to work with him on planning my internship. I have 3 more semesters and a semester of internship.
I am going to try to do my internship with LEAP cause they could give me some good experience, but I am goign to still try to get in at one of the hospitals if at all possible cause that is ultimately what I want to be doing.
Well that is about all i feel like typing for now. Not much else is going on right now anyway. My birthday is coming up on Sept 4th so I am kinda excited about that feel free to send cards to P.O. Box 61 Canton, NY 13617....LOL Anyway I am outta here I will update again soon!!!!
