In two weeks I'll be moving back to Moorhead to finish my last year of college. Next week is my last at work. The summer has flown once again, except this time it felt like the last of a long line of mandatory breathers that have kept me from getting my degree over and done with and getting on with my life.
Dating someone older, already beginning his career, has made my last two years of school seem unfortunately long-winded and lame. I've had senioritis since my first week as a freshman, yet this college experience is one I wanted and still want to see through. I have a number of things to look forward to with my senior year. I can go out with a bang. I'm directing a play, competing as an actor in Omaha, going to Greece, graduating.
In the meantime, this last week of closing the restaurant is agonizing though necessary. I hate working in a theatre-less industry where my services are not only taken for granted by the customers, but where the people I'm serving often condescend to me and expect extraordinary lengths to be taken to satisfy their neuroses. When such lengths are taken a simple 'thank you' is usually too difficult to muster. I have also sworn to never take a job outside theatre that makes me work nights. I'm over it.
Things are about to improve by leaps and bounds.
