Night time thoughts

Apr 06, 2007 00:51

I always stay up late Thursdays because typically I take a nap after class on Friday. I have an interview with Brookcrest at 3:30 Friday though so I have to postpone my nap. Brookcrest is a nursing home I am volunteering at, along with Allendale nursing home. They make you go through interviews to make sure you are competent to work with the type of people there, mainly senile dementia units. So Saturday will be my first day at Allendale. I met a few residents so far and I'm looking forward to working with them. I have to have 50 hours of coursework completed by the end of summer. My major is therapuetic recreation and by fall this year I will be in the program! Since these are both volunteer opportunies I still am looking for a summer job around here. I applied at this day camp about 20 minutes south of Grand Rapids and there is a shuttle bus so I wouldn't have to drive there every day. The camp might not begin until June actually, I don't remember. So I'm not sure if I should have expected a call yet or not. I don't want to wait too long before looking for another job. However, I need something with somewhat of a flexibility because I have to be home for a couple reasons here and there this summer. So basically that has been my life these past couple of months---getting it together. That and trying to survive the semester. I feel like I am constantly studying and when I used to go home it would feel like a relief. But now, when I go home I dread it because I can't enjoy myself because I am constantly thinking about what I have to get done. I am constantly tired and rarely stay up very late. The semester is almost over. Holy shit. 3 weeks. My 3 hardest exams are on the same day. That is trouble. I just figure I can stick it out for 3 more weeks. I'm worried about my Biology grade, but with Lab factored in, I am praying I can pull off a B-. My professor is so shitty. Hopefully enough people complain to the Bio dept. so we can get our grades raised half a letter grade. I emailed them today about it. He is such a bad professor.
Seriously, I think about what else I can say and school is all that comes to mind. I am so ready to be done but I still need to focus because my exams are killer. Oh and work was a pain in the ass today. The printing machine at the Lansing Journal broke so we couldn't have our papers distributed by 7 am this morning, so we had to go around campus and do it ourselves at like 1. The wind was blowin and the snow was swirlin. it was not fun. but hey, there are worse things. I hate my job, but most of the time I can get away with doing homework, or at least waste time on the world wide web if i'm not busy. Oh and I registered for classes next year. rec 110, rec 111, chm 230, ant 204, bms 208, rec 253, rec 200, psy 364, lib 314!!! busy busy busy! No classes Friday first semester. YES
Kassi, Marlow, and I saw Meet the Robinson's the other night. Ya know, it didn't get the best reviews but I thought it was HILARIOUS! We saw it in Disney 3D too, it was badass. It actually was pretty freakin funny, the villian totally made the movie.
Hm, Easter is Sunday. Having it at my house this year. It will be the first time my family gets together without Uncle Gary being there. :[ It will be rough. I'm scared.
School, work, family. Bout it. Busy, but I love my life. Oh and my best friends and my boy are amazing too.

Happy Easter everyone
