| There's this new musical, Spring Awakening...
People should listen to it, I keep liking it more and more.
It's all about teen angst in this boarding school in Germany
and sex and masturbation and drama. Pretty fun stuff.
anywho... Finals are done! I start full time work this week.
I have mixed feelings about this.

| This week is my last week of classes! While they've both been
very interesting and I've enjoyed taking them, it'll be nice to not
have to worry about homework or papers when I come home.
Plus I'll have mondays, and possibly one other day off to sleep
in. I'm pretty pumped about that plus the added income.
In other news, on the cruise to alaska I'm going on, not only
will I get to go dog sledding (on a wheeled sled, cause it's summer),
visit a Tlingit Villiage, go whale-watching, and see a lumberjack show,
but now we also get to learn glass blowing! So this summer will
provide a plethora of crafting experiences.
There's not much else going on right now. Work was a real
bitch this weekend, as it was father's day brunch on sunday.
I got a little pissed at the other 2 dishwashers who came in that
day to "help". They were some help, it's true, but they mostly
stood around talking to the cooks while the dishes piled up where
I was.
I was a tad peeved, but oh well.
That's aboot it for now
PEACE!

| WTF, UPDATE?!
Sure, why not.
Thus far summer's been pretty uneventful. My classes are very interesting,
but the tests are tough, and I've got tests for both on tuesday.
I'm also employed, which is a definite plus, and it pays really well, too,
considering I'm washing dishes, a decidedly monotonous job.
I'm only working 3 days a week now, but once classes end I'll move
to full time, which means I'll actually have a day or two off at some points
during the week. Currently I'm either working or in class. No days off yet.
My arm finally stopped hurting from my first day at my beginning Blacksmithing
class. It really is a lot harder than in looks, but walking back at dusk with my
pointy metal spike made me feel pretty damned safe and proud, and it's a lot
of fun. I'm looking forward to my next class on wednesday. I'm not the worst in
the class, and certainly not the best, but I want to do a little better this week than
I did last week.
So I got pulled over today. Luckily the cop was really cool about it, was
pretty friendly and just let me off with a warning. I was infinitely relieved.
I really can't afford another speeding ticket.
I guess that's all that's really going on...
So until another exciting installment
PEACE!

| So I'm procrastinating a little...
I'm just not looking forward to this Queer Theory paper.
Going to England for fall semester kinda fell through, and to
be perfectly honest, I'm a little relieved.
Don't get me wrong, I want to study abroad, but an entire
semester is really long, and I'm really looking forward to
living here next fall with my friends.
I've kinda already started moving into the house I'll be living
in come summer (I'm taking summer courses too, thank goodness)
we've been painting and rearranging, and the more I think
about it the more excited I am to be staying around.
I still am on shaky ground when it comes to my major.
I think I'm going to stick with Psychology, but I'm less inclined
now to actually pursue a career in it. I have no idea
what I'm going to do out of college, and I don't really have
an example to follow in my sisters as they both got married
(or had housing provided for them)pretty much fresh out of
college. With marriage pretty much out of the picture for me
(nothing I'm too upset about, granted) I'm in a mild panic as
to what to do once I've graduated. I've mostly ruled out
Grad school, though I'd been considering it until recently.
I'm just not that passionate about psychology, though I still
feel as though I should do something for my community,
which is why I wanted to do Counselling with a focus
on Gender Deviance. I want to be able to do something
to help the people I care about and provide support where
the world witholds it. It's still a possibility, but it'll be a different
path.
In other news, I'm going to Alaska this summer on a cruise
with laura's family! I'm going to (hopefully) get to dogsled and
go whale-watching, so I'm pretty freaking excited about that.
Though I'm going to have to girl it up while I'm there, but I
can deal with that.
End ramblings and back to work...
