almost there...

I am so ready for this semester to be over.  I just feel drained and want a break.  Just a couple more weeks though.

I'm sitting in the Union collecting trip fees and forms for the Summer Y'ALL trip.  So far numbers aren't looking good, but I think we'll get there.  We just might need to do a little more promotion I suppose.

I am still trying to finalize my summer plans.  I am still waiting to hear back from both the Red Cross in D.C. and the AmeriCorps position in Iowa.  Hopefully one of those will pan out.  

So I had an awesome birthday last week.  I think.  Well thats what people are telling me who were there.  I got to see my buddy's bluegrass band so that was really fun.  Speaking of music, I am going to see Wilco tonight at the Auditorium.  It should be a good show so I am looking forward to it.

Well, I'm gonna go.  I'm so sleepy and I don't know when I'll have time to catch up on sleep.  Actually, I am probably going to take one of my world famous naps this afternoon before coaching.  Ok, I'm out.......

quarter-life crisis...

As I've mentioned previously, I haven't been very good about the whole internship search. However, the past week has been pretty good to me.  I had a preliminary interview last Friday with the American Red Cross in DC.  Today I had my second interview and was told that I was one of 5 people being considered (There were initially like 20-25 people).  I thought the interview went well so I should know by the end of the week.  Additionally, I was contacted about a summer AmeriCorps position in Iowa.  I still need to set up an official interview time.  I feel a lot more confident about being selected for that position, and it certainly wouldn't be a bad backup by any means.  I'm still holding out on FEMA to post their summer positions, but is it really a surprise that they're a little slow....

So I seriously can't believe that I turn 25 this week.  I don't feel that old.  I don't even really want to talk about it.  I'll just hang out with older people to remind myself that it could be worse....

Ok, time for bed.  I need to meet with my advisors tomorrow (today now) about my schedule for next semester....
