Ugh

Well, I'm finally hitting that wall i've been running at for a while. I just don't feel like doing anything right now. The snowday yesterday didn't help much either. I just found out that the guy i'm supposed to retain this suite with doesn't have guaranteed housing, so after panicking about trying to find people so that I can stay here, it was never an issue because I can't stay here anyway. It's such a stupid system. Now I have to go and look for an apartment, that should be fun. I also have to do these spreadsheets for Qlique, which aren't bad, it's just a little tedious. Sklyer still hasn't called me back about the internship. I need to know things so that I can book my flights home, etc. It's weird how quickly things can change. I know that everything will turn out well soon, it's just that right now i don't feel like dealing with all of it right now.
Growing up sucks

Back from work

As promised, i'm writing after i got back from work. Worked kind of sucked today because we only had 2 people instead of the normal 4. So justin and i had to work twice as much.
I have to turn in my 5 pg paper today, hopefully i did a good enough job. I sent it to be reviewed, but she only reviews the outlines, so she didn't have time to look over my paper. I can't send her an outline because i didn't make one. I just wrote the paper. Oh well, we'll have to see what happens. I'm not feeling as bad about all this work that i'm going to have to be doing, even though i have a ton of stuff to do when i get back from class today at 6pm. I have to revise my german paper, do my german hw, i have a hw, extra crdit, and test in financial accounting all tomorrow, and a an exam in oragnizational behavior (one of 3, the only thing our grade is based on). So tomorrow should be a barrel of monkeys. thursday i have a test in ethics and probably some reading to do. writing down all the stuff i have to do is good because i can see how much i have to get done. I didn't really realize how much i have to do for tom until i wrote it all out. I also have to try and find more people for the Qlique thing before friday. I have two people confirmed (i think) and i need a few more. I sent out facebook messages, but they hardly ever work, even if the person is interested, it sucks. It's amazing that no matter what i do, it seems like they're doing a favor for me, even if they get $60 for me asking them to do it. People that i recruited already made $30 so far, and are going to make another $50 on friday, you do the math. I know i'm going to get something good out of this. It's nice to be able to get paid in two different ways at the same time (lifeguarding and qlique). I would like to get a little more for the recruiting, but i'd rather leave it to later to see how well i actually did. I hate asking because i feel so greedy, but it is warranted to ask for a little more, i guess. We'll have to see how it turns out. If i can manage all this stuff that i have lined up for the near future, i should be in really good shape in a few different areas. Let's hope i can handle being spread across all these different tasks.

Here it comes

So I haven't been posting at all lately because i haven't really had anything to write about. Now that i'm working in 20 and need to leave soon, i have the sudden urge to write. I got my internship w/ college works painting for the summer, so that's going to be fun (i hope). Right now i'm still helping Qlique by recruiting more specific people. I get $5 a person, and then the people i recruit get $10 initially, and then $50 for a second session. It's kinda crappy that I get paid $5 to pretty much give someone $60, but I get more out of it surprisingly. They are only part of the process for a week or two, where as i'm on a long term basis. So i would rather get paid a little and eventually be the manager of the entire campus than get paid more for a short period of time. unfortunately, the internship and possibly being the manager of the campus might happen at the same time, so it's going to be fun trying to balance those two, water polo, and 6 classes. I know that school is the most important, so i'll have to keep that in mind. I'll write some more when i get back from work, gotta go!
