Last Day at Work

May 10, 2006 16:33

Not too much more to say today. My last day of work. I thought about working last night, but I decided that I'd rather go to sleep than earn an hour or two hours' worth of pay, especially since I've been working every morning at 8am and have had rather fulfilling days. Today, I took my one-hour lunch break, because I was working 8-5 again. I don't see KB as much as I'd like, and I didn't have any pictures of her from any of my picture-taking frenzies, so I was sure to bring my camera to lunch today in hopes of seeing her. And I did!



Every time I see her with her hair pulled back like that, I think, "Did KB get a haircut?"
I told her she'd look good with her hair cut that way if she ever thought to do that.



This is Emily Sheffield, a girl who works in McIver 333. She's really sweet.
She saw me sitting at the table by myself and asked to join me.



KB had to leave, so I made sure to get one more picture.
I thought it'd be cute for it to be of her and Amanda.
They were roommates last semester, ya know.



Mark came to lunch a few minutes before I had to leave.
He asked if I could take the picture while he wasn't looking.

I gave him a hug when I left. He allowed it, because I'm graduating. I told him, "I may never see you again!" And then Amanda and I decided to say good-bye to Jen. We saw Mark on our way there, because he's apparently a fast eater. "Dammit, you ruined my good-bye." Amanda and I gave Jen hugs, her mom complimented me on my outfit (my denim skirt and a hippie-ish kind of shirt that I found in my mom's closet the other week), and her dad congratulated me on graduating and gave me a firm handshake. Then I went back to work.

Oh, I should probably mention that I kinda hurt my leg/foot. On my way up the stairwell in McIver this morning, I was walking up the stairwell when the tip of my sandal tripped me up on the last step leading to the landing in between the first and second floor. I did this hop thing to regain my balance, and I kept hopping until I needed to reach out for the guardrail to help me find my footing. Let us thank God for the guardrail, for without it, I would have landed head first on the tiled first floor. I guess they make those things for people like me. Anyway, shortly after that, I noticed that it kinda hurt to walk. I mean, it's not excruciatingly painful. I don't think it's a bone. I think I pulled something though. It's my left leg, my shin, at the lower left side, kinda along the bone and leading to a bit of my ankle and then again around the arching of my foot. Silly me.

Hey, I think I'm going to April's graduation party tonight. I guess it all depends on if I'm feeling up to being around drunk people. I'm poor, so I won't be bringing my own booze. I might be able to use a credit card or something. I could call my mom and ask about it, and if so, then I could head out and buy something. I'd rather not though, because I want to be able to drive back. So we shall see. It's a really short drive. I plan on gathering some things in my room, going to the party, coming back, loading up my car (there should be less traffic on campus by then), and then parking my car. We'll see how that goes.

Enough typee. In fifteen minutes, it's...



Bye-bye, McIver 231.

It's been a good year. I've rocked as an Student Lab Manager. Oh, and as everything else, a friend, a sister, a daughter, a girlfriend, a photographer, a human being... Ya know.
