So, I am a complete failure. I haven't posted in months!
A lot has happened, and yet nothing much has happened. I got a job mid-March working at a local grocery store, which was nice. I had a job, yay! I applied to 3 universities, but only got into one, so guess where I am now going to school? The second week in July my family went on their annual camping trip. For the most part it was a lot of fun. Right after we got back I moved to my university town because I had gotten a job working at a call center and needed to get through training before school started. Well, I made it through training and started taking calls and then realized that I hated it. I quit that job the week before school started and have been looking for a new job since then. School started two weeks ago, and has been going quite well. I have one class that is almost completely grad students, so I feel rather dumb in that class, but I will manage to deal with it.
I applied for a job working with one of my professors, who is also the director of the museum at my school. I spoke with his secretary on Friday, and she thinks that I will work out well for the position. I just have to talk to my professor now, but he is out of town all next week, so it will have to wait until the week after. Keep your fingers crossed for me!
So, one good thing that come from working at the call center is that I found out about Bountiful Baskets. The call center is the pick up site for my area. For those of you who don't know, Bountiful Baskets is a co-op that provides fresh produce at a major discount. The traditional basket they offer is about 50-60 dollars worth of fruits and vegetables for 15 dollars. Sometimes they will also offer other things like organic bread and various types of other produce or granola. This time around they were offering 20 pound boxes of Asian pears for 16.50. I love Asian pears, so I had to get a box. I am munching on one even as I type this. My fridge is full of yummy produce now, which makes me happy. I love produce, but it is so expensive here that I have a hard time buying it.
If you love produce, I highly recommend getting Bountiful Baskets. They are amazing.
So, I don't think I have mentioned it before, but I like to write. I have started about 5 or 6 novels, but I haven't really done anything with them. I have decided that I am going to finish one, so I have started working on it a few days a week. Are you interested in reading what I have? If you are, let me know your email address and I can send you what I have. If you like it I will send you updates as I complete pages.
Well, that about sums up my life for the past few months.
How have things been going for you?
