Well, so far I have only worked on a few projects, but I have managed to clean the bulk of the areas surrounding me. For once I am bred here. Not that that is a bad thing. We barely ever get down time. The only problem is that we have this system where we have to track everything, and look as productive as possible. Surfing the net isn't one of those categories. So pretty much I am killing time until I leave at 5, possibly go to the gym and then do room inspections. The kids are going home today! It's about time. I can't wait to have a week to myself where I don't have to be running from one place to another. I just have to worry about work. No meetings, no card-swiping, no being on duty....I hope I know what to do with all of my free time.
It may suck too, since most of the people I hang out with are actually going home, except James. But he is probably going to work late every single night, so it's not like I am going to see a lot of him either.
I am still trying to figure out how I feel about my RA placement for next year. I got West Village A- although I don't know if I am in the 13 floor tower or in the 6 floor lower section. The tower section has smaller rooms and either way I get roommates. On the plus side I have a kitchen for 2 semesters back-to-back, which hasn't happened in 3 years. It will be an adjustment working with upperclassmen, and not my typical frosh...but I guess I can manage. My other option is to quick, and I have a good housing lottery number (70 out of over 2000), and I could be real cool and live in the freshmen honors hall, and be my friend's, Sarah, resident. That could be cool, but maybe it is just worth it to suck it up. I would also feel better if the RA contract was resolved...but let's not go there.
And while everything in the world seems up in the air, I have no idea what I am doing after June 24th, when co-op ends. I actually have 7 weeks of vacation, which is an alkward amount of time- just one week short of most summer camps, and not a typical summer lenght for a typical summer job. I am trying to decide if I should go to Maine, or stay in Boston, or if I will end up somewhere else. I am going to have to work either way, and housing is always an issue. I would like to enjoy my last summer off before the "real world". Grad school is going to have to wait, so after May 6, 2006, I will be trying to find a job for at least a year to a year and a half.
I don't know if I like everything so up-in-the-air...but it's all I have for now. Ok I've killed enought time at work- off to lunch!
