So I spent a lot of time complaining about salaries in my last entry, but I must confess that I am making a hefty sum this summer as a nutrition educator! Let's just say that it's more than double than what I make now. I was kind of bummed because of the animosity between my professor and I, but I can put those feelings aside for this. I was mostly hurt, since she was supposed to be my mentor and all. I mean, she didn't even respond to my email about the good news concerning the dietetic internship. Anyway, I just need to get through these next few weeks.
Last Saturday was James' "welcome home" party at Chris and Steve's house down in Scarborough. I tethered along with Michaela and Eric. I had more fun with them in the car and at Iggy's than at the party, but that's okay. Frankly, I just don't talk to any of these other people, anymore, and I feel like it's such a chore to even begin a conversation with them. I remember when they were down to earth and friendly, but now they're kind of condescending like they're too good to talk to me, now. I don't really want to be all uppity or full of myself, but gosh. Honestly, what are you so pompous about?
Oh well. I absolutely missed James, though. I am so glad to have one of my best friends back home. I can't wait until class is over, because I'm helping him go furniture and clothes shopping. I like to say that he hired me to be his interior decorator and personal stylist, but I'm pretty sure he couldn't care less what I choose. I hope that he wouldn't be adverse to sitting with me at Borders to peruse some magazines so I at least get a sense of his style.
Friday is CJ's birthday and Richard's coming home. I think that Michaela and Eric are going to be around, and James is coming, too. I personally think that we should go to Foxwoods, because I haven't been since I turned 21. Plus, I want to dress up a little bit. He wants to go to D&B. Seriously. D&B. That's the only place he ever wants to go to. Not my idea of an awesome time. We all went there, sans James and plus Shelby, two or three weeks ago and it was lame, then, too. He plans on getting trashed, too. Trashed at D&B? Err, I don't know. I talked to Finn and it sounded like it was going to plan something more exciting, but we'll see. Then, Nav is having a mini cinco de mayo get together for CJ on Saturday, which I think is hysterical because he never did anything for my 21st birthday and Chris is turning 22. Technically, it's just going to be a few of his friends, the aforementioned, and his neighbors.
Speaking of his neighbors, they are "stick your head out of the window to have a conversation" type of neighbors. Swell, but slightly strange. I haven't met them, but apparently the one across the street told Ant that he thinks I'm hot. It makes me wonder, how does he know what I look like if we never met and I hope that it's not through my bedroom window upstairs...
