Wow, so I’ll be back in Gainesville in about four days. I am so super busy this week; either packing, shopping, or seeing people before I leave. Also, helping take all of Katharyn’s boxes to be mailed out to California. It’s weird thinking she’s going to be farther from home than I am. Today I went to Wal-Mart to grab some kitchen supplies and also bought a couple DVDs, Air Force One and The Matrix. Now I just need to buy Reloaded(I love that movie).

Oh and I only have two more days of work! I thought I’d be really happy when work was over and done with, but now that it’s getting to the end, I’m sad…I’m really going to miss the people I work with. You know how you hear horror stories about people’s co-workers/bosses? Well, none of that here. Come winter, guess where I’ll be working again? That’s right, Sweetbay. One other note here, I got the “Service Clerk of the Month Award”. And yes, Service Clerk=bagger. Ok, that may not be the most glamorous of awards, but I’m pleased that God’s given me the ability to work hard at whatever I do…including bagging groceries.

And I just realized last entry I wrote about the beach day coming up, and yeah, that was definitely awesome. I only got a little sunburnt, and it was great seeing Laura again. And Dream, too for that matter, seeing as I’ve rarely hung out with her this summer. She gave me my b-day present(only about four months late, haha), “School of Rock”! Wooo, that movie is super sweet.

And I am annoyed with my muse for having left me all summer…I have gotten no productive writing done at all. Ah, well. When it comes back, I’ll be ready.

And now, I am off. Farewell, all!

So, almost the end of the week – FINALLY! The only thing I have left to worry about is my statistics exam at 12:50. I think I’m ready for it – but still a little nervous. We’ll have to see how that goes…

I had my 7:25 accounting discussion today – it’s so weird going to class that early in the morning. It feels like high school all over again. And it was SO cold this morning. Had to be in the 30’s, which I haven’t felt for a while. It was weird because as I was walking to my class, I had a cup of coffee – the inside of my hand was nice and toasty while the outside of my hand was freezing. Very odd sensation, let me tell you. But, for some reason, I don’t mind the early class TOO much. Just the waking up at 6-something. That’s not fun. Oh, and in class, while we were going over stuff I sort of already knew, I wrote a haiku. I’ve never really written them before, but I did. And it’s pretty lame, but hey, all haikus are. Here it is:

Accounting is a
very bad place to be at
an early hour.

Actually, I wrote it a little differently in my notebook, but it didn’t follow the form(ok, I don’t write them all the time), so I modified it a touch, so it actually is a haiku(5,7,5 instead of the 5,5,7 I had). Oh, and hour is two syllables. I so decree it.

Anyways..since you probably didn’t want to see my haiku anyway, I’ll change the subject. I’m sort of hungry, so I should probably eat breakfast soon. But I’ll talk about the Career Showcase instead. That was on Wednesday and was much fun. I was really worried, but I don’t know, I found it very..exhilarating, to be there and talk to the recruiters from different companies. I don’t know if I’ll get an internship, but at least I met a bunch of different company people and passed out my resume a lot. After it, I was exhausted though. I wish I’d gone last semester, but at least I went this time. I’ll definitely have to go next fall to get an internship for NEXT summer.

Ok, I’m not sure of what else to write, even though I know lots has happened, so I’ll just call it an entry and go have breakfast. Hope everyone has an awesome day!!
