Week 2

Week two is almost done. I haven't gotten any positive replies to anything I have applied for yet. I guess I just keep right on going and cross my fingers.
I plan on applying for the Alumni Events position at BSU, and if anything happens at Residential Life, that job also. My hope is that one of those will work or I can find a teaching position in the summer job search. It seems the jobs just pop up from time to time and I could be lucky one day.
I have many things to do yet, and so little time. I was promising myself to take it easy this summer this morning, because I have been worrying and tense these last few months... or year and I can feel it in my shoulder muscles - very sore and tight.

To do list:

  • Pick up reference form from RL
  • Fix up application packet for alumni event at BSU
  • Go through my letters, resume's, and Curriculum Vitae and print off some good copies
  • Organize my job search folder on desk for easy application
  • Post my information at monster jobs
  • Print off some more of my Transcripts and order some more official ones from UNT and BSU
  • Relax and Enjoy my Summer!!

Organized Chaos

Yes, yes. I am all up in there with my organized self.. procrastinating and fulfilling to do lists at the same time. How does she do it folks? She does it with a twitch of the eye for 12 hours straight and a dazed nap of 3 hours in the middle of the day because she feels exhausted after a good 8 hours sleep at night. Sleeping must be so hard on me.

Ok, well, here it goes.
  • Wake
  • Dress
  • Breakfast
  • Pay bill - mail out bill
  • Drop off Thesis at HS office for RW and letters for others (and DE's book!)
  • Stop in at Residential Life - speak to RL and perhaps LK? Or find MM or SH
  • If I have Forms filled out, bring to Concordia LV (Grab up Aspen)
  • Go home, eat lunch
  • Work on bills and calendar
  • Work on my resumee and letter for Fall job (Alumni)
  • Clean up around house
  • Make Angel Food Cake for party?
  • Get ready for my brother and his wife!!!! Whoohoo

"coming back" by Crystal Method

Well, I had my final class at BSU tonnight. 6-midnight. I presented my paper topic - Criseyde and Courtly Love (Chaucer). We ate pizza - DE bought it for us, awesomest professor - and we enjoyed our last night.

After that, I went to my office in the library and packed up 4 bins and a duffel bag of my stuff - cleaned it up and closed the door for the last time. I didn't really get attached to that office, but that desk in the center of third floor was my home for many many many hours.

Oh, and I got the letter explaining the other college I applied to to teach at saying they are doing interviews and I was one of the ones not chosen. /sigh

So, to do this week:
  • Get check for Bryan
  • Check messages on phone in dorm
  • get carpet out of dorm and into dumpster
  • Give cats a bath - good grief they are dirrrrty
  • Mail check to St Jude's for Hall Council
  • Sort through my bins of assorted junk
  • Graduate
  • Find a job
  • Drop off book for Deanna
  • more to come
