Well, it HAS been a good while...

..since I posted last. We'll say that life happened and you'll figure it out as I continue this blog. I'll start from now and move forward with this little project of mine.

It's summer, and that means summer time fun and summer time jobs. It's Tuesday, and I'll still swear it feels like Monday til Friday. I do have a few rays of sunshine during the week though: family night on Monday and a Star Wars themed RPG on Thursdays back on campus. That's plenty to keep me going through the week.

This last weekend was a blast! LAN party with some good friends of mine. It's always fun, and this time our list of games included: Demigod (first time, but fun!), DotA, CoD 4, CoD:WaW Zombies, and random bouts of Magic.


As for summer time jobs, I tried looking in Cookeville (as did several others I know), and not a single place was hiring. Not one! Not even on campus! How ridiculous is that? Or least, there were no jobs hiring anyone without some type of experience. The only job opening I found was available to graduate students in the Physics department...talk about fail.

So, my hunt lead me back to Murfreesboro, where my dad offered me my old job from summers' past. I jumped at it. Well, maybe more like limped over, but I got here and took it. At the very least, I'm able to save most of what I make for next year at school. Seeing as how I let myself go last year and lost my scholarships (for the moment), I'll need every dime I can get. I did it to myself and even saw it coming. I just didn't move to stop it. I'm not sure what the future holds for me now, but I do know that I'll be facing a little bit wiser.

At least, I think there's a grant I may now be eligible for now due to a change of major on my part. I finally said screw engineering. The department for my particular forte is up in the air and couldn't seem to make up its mind 0n what should be in the curriculum, so they played my class for the guinea pigs and screwed us up pretty good. After getting to do some work in the field, I realized how bad off I was and decided it wasn't worth the trouble. Now, I've swapped to something that my heart's always been in: teaching. Yeah, crappy pay, but I don't prioritize money too high.

Well, that's about it for now. Back to the grindstone!
