Work at the daycare summer camp is going pretty well so far. Two weeks down and I'm still enjoying it. The kids are pretty cool, and my co-wokers are fun. I was concerned that it wasn't enough hours though to pay the bills and save up some money so I was looking around for a second job and having a really tough time finding something. Well I ( Read more... )

What an awesome four day weekend!! Beach, BBQ, fireworks, billards, Italian Festival, Karate Kid movie (which was actually quite good), and the PRIDE parade today. Lots of time with good friends and even more sunshine ( Read more... )

5 minutes of softball practice = Sitting in the Emergency Room for 2 hours. Verdict: I've torn my left Quad. So I'm currently on crutches, pain killers, and I have to do physio. The doctor said I should expect it to take 6 to 8 weeks to heal ( Read more... )

I have joined up with the Medieval Studies intramurual softball team for the summer. Regis College doesn't have a team, so I'll be playing on the Papal Bulls team instead from the Centre. I am greatly looking forward to meeting some other students, especially other medievalists. There's been two practices so far but I've unfortunately missed them ( Read more... )

It was pouring rain all morning before the race so it was pretty cold and nasty outside. Thankfully the rain stopped before the actual race, but it was not the beautiful day we were hoping for. The run was 5KM and here's ( Read more... )

Sometimes I still hate this city. I am still unemployed (until at least June 25th) and I'm not having any luck trying to find anything. I've hit up three malls in person to drop off resumes, a bunch of random restaurants and I check four job sites online everyday. I've been doing this now for 3 months. 3 MONTHS!! It's all just so ridiculous. So in ( Read more... )

So far this year Kalamazoo has been pretty great. My one big complaint however is that the WaxCraft people are no longer here. I sent off an e-mail to inquire about the status of things, and apparently the business is in the process of being dissolved, which means no more Kalamazoo trips for them. This was rather devastating news. They have an ( Read more... )

Sometimes things work out the way we want them to, and sometimes they don't. And then sometimes, we don't know how we want things to end up, and we're never really sure how they will until it's over. Life really is a bit like a game in that regard... you pick out your strategy ahead of time and try to play by the rules you set, or you just have at ( Read more... )

Have I ever told you how much I hate job hunting? Well, let me say it again anyway ( Read more... )

Well.. my Latin exam has been written and I'm fairly certain that I did quite well on it. So I think I can safely check that off the list! Thank-God ( Read more... )
