Okay, so I promised in my last entry that I would do some serious journaling today. I guess I should live up to that since I know how much you all anticipate my entries. ;-)
I'm sure I've mentioned how my accounting teacher was helping me find a summer job at an accounting firm. Well, Tuesday I took matters into my own hands. Our school website was advertising summer job opps. at the Career Development Center and one of the fields they listed was accounting. So, I figured, "What the heck?" I went down there and met with a woman who I guess is a career counselor or something like that. I told her what I was in there for and she told me she had the perfect thing. Turns out there is a job here in Palm Coast at a place called Lowe Enterprises and one (or their head) controller was looking for DBCC students to work there for the summer. I think there is only one position, so this woman made me draw up a quick resume in the library, I e-mailed it to the controller, and got a response saying that they were really busy since it's the end of the month (killer times for accountants) and that she would contact me soon about an interview around the week of the 10th. I REALLY hope I get this job. It's 15-20 hours a week and $8.50 an hour. Holy crap that's good money. Also, it's here in PC AND I'll be doing accounting type work. I'm soo excited, but at the same time, I'm trying not to get my hopes too high just in case this blows up in my face.
Finals. What can I say? I have three on Tuesday and one on Thursday morning and then I'm done with this school. I'm worried about all of them, which only adds to the pressure. I thought my accounting one would be open book, but my teacher shot that down and my math final is cumulative and we all know what kind of beasts those are. Econ will be hard as usual and I have fluff work due on Monday and the day of the test so I can't even devote all of my time to studying yet and finally my history exam should be easy, but I had a hard time with the midterm and I had studied for like three days.
Chris is coming home on Sunday for summer. Good because he's gonna be home for three months! Also good because it gives me tomorrow and Saturday to study without having a feeling of wanting to be somewhere else. I'm thinking I might go to the library in town and study there because I'll have less distractions. If I'm at home, I have my computer and the TV distracting me and all kinds of crap. I think it's gonna rain tomorrow too, so that will be kind of relaxing and give me an excuse not to wash my car. I'm so bad.
I joined a UNF community on livejournal and it's pretty cool. I actually met a girl who graduated the year after me from FPC who is going there now. I'm just glad that I'm kind of getting a feel for the environment there and everyone has been REALLY nice. If everyone is as nice in person as they are here, then I should have no problem meeting people.
Yeah, I had some reflective stuff I wanted to write about, but I'm not really in the mood. My procrastinating even extends to my journaling. Sweet.
