I'm so pathetic...and poor...again. I got my 1st check as a Recruiter...and I'm broke. I knew it was going to be half of what I normally get because I started in the last week of that pay period. I got around $290 and it all went straight to bills---my monthly loan payment and the cable bill. I have to buy a Metrocard for transportation to work, so that's another $20, and then I used what was left to pay for a $ order, an envelope and some stamps for a writing competition I'm entering. Now, I am the proud owner of a bank account that is back to about $10. How great.
Today, Marg, Clayton, Kimberly and I went to another public school in the Bronx for presentations. Originally, I wasnt going to present, only observe the other three. But Marg asked if I could try to see what I could do, and I just decided, what the hell. It went ok. I was a little disappointed at myself because I was a little scatterbrained in terms of giving out info. Some of the students had weird looks on their faces as if trying to figure me out. Who cares. Overall, I think I would give myself a 7 and a half on it today. I literally went blank a couple of times in my head, but covered it up real good, so I dont think the students noticed all that much. Eh, I'll live.
