Okay, so the emotional ups and downs of the summer continue...
I've been having an internal struggle over American Eagle. I'm not upset with anyone there, I'm just frustrated with the job itself. I'm not planning on quitting or anything, just not sure of how I should approach certain aspects.
My summer Residence Life job is over as of today. It was a good summer, glad it's over though. Not really ready to go back to Admissions, but I'm working fewer hours this year, which will be a nice break.
No longer have a boyfriend. We discussed things and decided not to continue. Lots of reasons, lots of emotions. I'm not upset, but then again I'm not excited about this outcome, either. However, he is still a very good friend and I plan to keep it that way.
I've started making plans with my lighting prof for my independent study with her this fall. I'm very excited about it, as well as any job opportunities she may be able to offer me. I will also be getting to do a lot of practical work with lighting on campus this year with my student manager position in the department.
Jon moves in next Wednesday. I really think we're gonna have a lot of fun. It'll be very different for me having a roommate, since I'm not very accustomed to having one, but on the plus side, I won't be as bored as I have been in the past...I hope :-p
And the kicker...My mom is supposed to come down this weekend and buy some things for my dorm room and future apartment, however, I talked with her today and she just informed me that the hospital may decide to outsource many of its positions...one of which is hers. So, after 20 years at this hospital, they may be "politely letting her go." What a kick in the teeth, in my opinion. So I can only hope she can find a new job (if necessary) in the next month, or else finances are going to be very tight. Not a comfortable thought knowing that I go to a University that costs $24,000 a year.
