a real entry for a change

Dec 01, 2005 18:07

i'm sitting in the union right now because our internet isn't working at home (no clue way) and i feel really good, so i thought maybe it'd be a good time to write here. things are going alright. i feel good at the momment, but lately that's been subject to change by the hour. i had my RA interview on tuesday and it went really well, or at least that's how i feel about it. i think it helped that i had been through it already once and knew one of the ppl. i felt really relaxed and feel as though i gave some decent answers...i hope they thought the same. anna told me good luck when she saw me before hand, and that made me feel good. she also asked me how it went right when i got out too. we talked for a while and it made me feel even more good about it. i feel like she wants me on her staff. i might be wrong and i'm doing what i can to not get my hopes way up, but i think i might be somewhat too late as well. i asked when we'd find out and they said that they're deciding tomorrow (friday) and then letters will go out next week. i'm really hopeing early next week. i'm already checking the mail every chance i get...it's sad, but a lot is riding on this. just keep hoping and praying that i get a possition. if i don't, i'm going to try and get into the dorms still. i'm a bit worried though. my mom called and talked to them and whoever she talked to said that there wasn't a real good chance i'd get in and that there were about 100 people ahead of me on the waiting list. i'm doing what i can to not stress about it. sarah has been encouraging me to not worry about any of it until i find out about the RA thing next week. it's easier sad than done, but i'm trying my hardest and it works most of the time. i also haven't given my 60 day notice to my ladlord(s) yet, but i'm waiting on that until i find out about the RA thing as well. that one scares me a little more, but i have faith that i'll all work out one way or another. i also talked to my adviser on tueaday. she was really good. i just told her that i was interested in going into sign and she explained what my options were. she asked what i was aprehensive about and i just said that i still feel really unsure because i've changed majors a bunch already. she asked what my majors were before, so i told her and she actually said- 'for the ITP it's almost better to have a 'jack-of-all-traids'. she said that she could be in a hospital setting on day, in a court the next, and in a buisness meeting the next. being well rounded helps you. that made me feel really good, because i am very much well rounded in a lot of ways. i always have been. she laied out what all i need to be taking and wrote up a thing showing what i should think of taking from now until spring of 07. that was really cool to look at and just took a lot of my worries away to see that my life had potential direction. i'm excited about the courses too. she asked if i wanted her to change my major over yet or if i wanted to wait, i told her to go ahead. she asked then if i wanted to go with the double, (in ITP and ASL) and i said yeah, go ahead. she said that i could always change it to one or the other later on too. idk if i want to interpret yet and i don't know what i would do with just an ASL major, but i'll figure that out more once i'm in some more classes. fall of next year i'll take intro to interpreting and she said that that class tells ppl if they want to do ITP or not- i'm looking forward to that. as far as this coming semester goes, it looks like i'll be taking ASL IV, deaf history, deaf culture, power of words and communications 250 i think it is- or something like that none the less.

i guess i'm a bit worried about kelly. i just am not sure if she's happy. we haven't had a chance to really sit down and catch up in a long time. her cell phone broke too. i'll just have to pray for her i guess, and stop around her room and studio when i can. sarah's stressed to, but it's getting better. bethers is too, but we'll all be okay. anyway, i'd better get going. yay for a blog longer than ten sentences! :-p
