Ok! So when we last saw our struggling, overly-bedazzled college programmer, she was sick, yet enthused with being accepted into the Disney talent show.
...Not much has changed haha.
I called to confirm that I want to participate, and I left a message, but wasn't able to talk to anyone which kind of worries me, but, eh, no big. I really should be finishing my last 10 pages of "Common Sense 101", right now, but I just got back from work at Hollywood Studios, and I have a box of white cheddar cheezits that I'm going to do some damage on while I blog and watch an episode of one of my favorite shows, The Big Bang Theory. I looooove me some Big Bang Theory... and white cheddar cheezits.
Anyways, because my fever finally went away yesterday, I decided to go for a run. I am still a little sick, and I haven't run in 3 days, so I did 2.5 and was exhausted. Last week, when Mallory went for a run, her I.D. fell somewhere and she couldn't find it. I got scared by this and wore really big basketball shorts so I could keep my I.D. safe in the deep confines of the boy-pockets. Lo and behold, it still manages to fall out at some point of my run. I went back and looked for it, but it was late and dark. Thankfully, some kind soul from the richy-rich complex found it and returned it. I've heard a lot of stories like mine where people hear a story, get scared into changing their routine, and the thing they were scared of happening happened as a result of that change. I bet there's a word for that in German...
Last week, I got to do some great networking with the wedding planners here. I really think that if I keep up contact with them, I might have a place here for me in a couple years with the professional internship. I'm going to write a thank-you note to the woman I interviewed, because I think I did a really good job on the assignment having to do with networking, thanks to her. We have a huge project due in that class at the end of the semester and I'm so pumped for it. It's a huge board that describes (and artistically presents) the career that we want. I'm thinking some lace, some satin ribbon, some scrap-booking paper, rhine stones, pearls, and toulle and BAM! we got ourselves a winner :) In my other class, marketing you, we had a sub who spoke a good bit of class about C.S. Lewis and Tolkein. He was hysterical! He also mentioned that he was not a relativist, when he was talking about how he believes in being honest with people you work with if they have a viewpoint that is wrong, but humble enough to admit when you might be wrong. He claimed that he would never see us again, so after class, I approached him and asked, "Can I make a prediction?" He looked kind of surprised, but said "Uh..Sure?" I said "You're Catholic, you know about the Inkpots, and are probably a Chesterton fan." He laughed out loud and said that I was right. We talked about a couple of books and swapped favorite quotes for a bit and then exchanged e-mails. It was funny, I felt like Kevin. Speaking of which! Kevin comes down this coming week, and I'm SUPER CRAZY EXCITED. Who's going to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter? Yeah. That's right. We are.
