First Day of Work

I love to work. That is what I decided today. It feels so good to be on my feet having to do something. My first day was pretty interesting. The manager was different than the one that hired me, and had not been informed that I was starting today. So she got all the paperwork... which we didn't know quite how to fill out. Hopefully my taxes will be okay, and they won't register me for welfare. (Those were the 2 scary forms). The girls I work with are really nice, and the cooks are nice too. It was quite an eventful first day. There was a CREW game tonight, so it was PACKED. But I got lots of practice on the register. Lots of weird stuff. And people actually gave me tips... I'm sure it's because I kept telling people it was my first day. All in all, I think it was a successful first 4.45 hours. After all, I made $4 in tips! I work again tomorrow.

But yes, I thought how nice it was to be able to work all evening. I like making money and not just sitting around.

In other news... CUMBERLAND is coming up this weekend! I'm looking forwards to the family reunion. It will be lots of fun. I miss the extended family.

YAY!!!!

So I got a job! Yay!! I'll be working at BW3's as a cashier evenings and nights. It should be good, the people all seem nice, and the pay is pretty good. They're going to train me later in the summer for serving, so that I can do that in August when football season starts. I'm happy.

Oh... so I'm also in the middle of changing my blog settings. I decided I wanted a more summer feel to the look of it. I also realized that I should change the description, because I am no longer going to be a molecular genetics major.

I also don't think that The Crazy Life of a College Student was very fitting... but I'm not sure if what I have is appropriate. Any suggestions for a title for my blog are welcome. I'm pretty random, and this blog is simply about my boring life. But who wants to title their blog, "My Boring Life"??? Not I. So please... help me out!!!

Relaxing

Well! It's been a long time since my last post. I'm SOOOOO glad that finals are over. They were rough, but I ended up doing very well, and maintained my GPA. So that was good. I've started to shadow Sayaka and Shannon, which is fun. I haven't done much, but I still like it.

I'm still looking for a job. It's amazing how people will tell you they're hiring, but when you turn in an application they say they'll look it over and give you a call if they're interested... and then NOT call!! And it seems like when I check back, they're suddenly not in need of anyone to work. Quite frustrating. I think I've filled out about 8 applications. Fortunately I actually have an interview for BW3's today at 3:45. YAY!!! Maybe they'll give me a job! I decided to apply to the one off Bethel, not the one on campus. I just feel safer a little farther away. The manager seems really nice, and the girls that I talked to who were working there said they loved working there, and that he was great to work with. So that made me feel good too. Hopefully I'll leave today with a job!

I spent a nice few days at home last week. I surprised my mom and dad and picked them up at the airport on the way back from their cruise. It was fun seeing the look on my mom's face! I also got to catch up with a lot of my highschool friends, and that was good too. I hope I get to see them a little this summer. Maybe they'll come visit me!

Less than 2 weeks until Cumberland!! I'm very excited. It's so nice to be able to relax! oh! And that reminds me... they just cleaned out the pool by me, and opened it up to the public yesterday. Now the pool is for the public, and I was amazed that people even knew about this place, but it was PACKED yesterday. I don't know where they came from, but there were a bunch of families and little kids! I wasn't expecting that at all! Today I might just have to try out the pool before my interview!
