Here I am, getting ready to leave. Remember how I applied to be an RA, and was on the alternate list? I got the call Sunday. So now, single in Eddy 2 instead of suite in South A. Much more cost-effective, and after all, isn't that what's important? Right now, my problems are:
1) Cleaning/packing procrastination - typical.
2) Schedule-juggling. The call really couldn't have come at a worse time - 90% of the LC vault crew is leaving this week and next, so we're down to a skeleton crew. So one person gone makes a pretty big difference......that's gonna work out, but I'm gonna be putting a lot of miles on my trusty Ford for the next couple of weeks.
3) Convincing my new employers that I can work 3 jobs, and take 19 credits, and still be awesome. I can, I know that....the sentiment seems to be cut back on UCTV (you remember that? Been doing it since freshman year? Finance manager and all that?), til I get settled in. Very reasonable. Except, no. Three jobs sounds like a lot, but what it really is is this - using some of my free weekends for LC (til Halloween), and one or two hours after class at the station a couple times a week, just like last semester. Not beginning of last semester, more like the end of last semester. Ya know, when I had the job figured out and knew what I was doing. I don't work set hours, I just get the job done, and I leave. Maybe watch some TV. So if anybody from ResLife is reading this, don't worry about me - I'm not going to let that interfere.
4) A little nervous, I'll admit that. Didn't I just do this? Walk into a whole new job, meet completely new people? Well, the vault worked out ok, and from what I know, the people I'm working with seem fun.
5) I guess I'll have to quit doing all those drugs.
6) That was a joke! Joke!!
7) I'm hungry.
