Never thought a job could be good for my GPA
No really...
This is my first time coming into the USA office since I got here at 8:30... We got to steal breakfast muffins from the sorority girls having meetings throughout the union building, and caught the end of House Guest with Sinbad...which we both love in a sick sort of way, lol. Since then we've watched random tv, switching between MTV and the History Channel (go figure). But I brought along a bookbag full of crap, hoping maybe I'd do something productive.
Since I've been here I finished the book I need to read for Monday's Civil War class, gone through my Spanish flash cards, and am outlining chapters in my American History textbook for my TR class with Brother Ed... It's a miracle. I have nothing else to do, I made myself promise not to lock up in the office alone, and Matt and I can only watch so much tv before I get groggy - and I can't nap in the daytime. Thus, homework!
Last night I missed out on HurlyBurly - but not like the rest of the group. I got sick. I don't know why... But it was just plain yucky, but I enjoyed a quiet night in the apartment watching movies until I passed out around 11 pm... I think it was my body telling me that I needed to stay in and get real sleep for a night. Much better today, despite a headache, but I think it's from all the reading.
Only an hour left of work, and then it's back to the Manor to pick up my duffel bag, and head towards the subway... Think I could get security to drive me there? It's dark, cold and icy, and I'll be lugging a heavy bag of laundry. That's my idea of prime mugging material. Hopefully they'll say yes... or maybe I should look up a shuttle schedule? Terry's picking me up from the train station, my grandma offered to do all my laundry for me, and I'll prolly sleep there after Terry and I have a girl's night. So I get to spend time with 2 of my favorite people from home... Terry...and my grandmother, lol. I'm a dork.... and I'm actually quite happy with that. Sunday's the big day of Amy's surprise baby shower (yes, same name...its not me) and despite the sad connotations around the day, we're sure she'll love it!
I'm in a decent place now, I think. Still some self doubt in certain areas, but a fair level of confidence in others. Talking with a few friends on Wednesday night really helped too.
