Class is over

My two summer courses are over. Now it's off to Nomadic Expeditions full time.
The last week of classes was crazy. I had a HUGE paper due that Tuesday. and I finished it at 4 am. And when I went to print it, my computer had a little fit and I lost it. I went from the 21 page final version back down to the 5 pages I had written the week before. Everything gone. I freaked out. Of course. And then I sat back down and wrote the whole thing again. Finished at 9 am, showered and headed off to class. That was insane. Not good times.
But now they're over. And I finally have my placement for student teaching. I'm at Old Bridge High School. Grades 9/10. Should be interesting.
We've started accepting proposals for the new season at Cabaret. We've gotten a few notes of interest, which is good. I just hope we get a lot more. Four is not enough, even if they all turn out to be acceptable proposals. Maintenance is doing some work in the building and pulling up some great old stuff from back in the day. There are all these pieces no one knew we had anymore. I'm really excited, but then again I am the one who they'll go to so of course I'm excited. Just like Ash would be excited if we discovered a whole room of great costumes. We still have a couple of places to fill at the theater, like props/costumes, marketing, and Electrician. I'm working on it. We really need to fill them. I have a couple of ideas for people to ask, but if anyone comes a long and is interested, I'll be more than happy to take them on.
On to the rest of life.... We finally have cable/internet/phone at the apartment. There are wires everywhere right now. Hopefully we can clean it up a bit, get some out of the way. I'm gonna look into upgrading my laptop to wireless. we'll see if it works.

Another Birthday came & went. Crazy. Carolyn & Megan came over to celebrate with me. We went to the Skylark Diner, which is amazing! It's such a cool place, and the food is great. Then Megan and I went out for the evening. It was great to finally get a chance to go out in New Brunswick with Megan. Especially with her leaving for Texas. We had a great time, and I'm really glad we got the chance to have one more night out.
And this past Thursday was the Matawan graduation. I went and hung out with Beadle on the field. It was actually pretty fun. So many of my old matawan friends had brothers and sisters graduating...Randy, Debby, Bev...so many last names I recognized. So I got to see a lot of people one more time before summer, though I didn't really get to talk to too many of them. But seeing them was nice. I did get to talk to Randy, which was great cause I hadn't in a long time; Jackie too. Parag was there with a friend. I got to talk to Kevin after he walked. Crupi was there, waiting for the party afterwards. So it turned out to be good times.


Well, now it's late and I've got work in the morning :-P so I've got to get some sleep.
Later.

long time....

It's been a long time. There was so much I wanted to write about, most of it sappy end-of-college stuff, or fun senior week stuff. But the moment has passed. Oh well. I dare say we'll all survive.
Now it's summer. I'm in the middle of summer classes. Two weeks down, two to go. Then I go to work full time. I'm working at Nomadic Expeditions. It's an adventure travel company, specializing in East Asia, specifically Mongolia. Yup. Mongolia. I'm an intern, aka office bitch. I stuff envelopes, answer calls, reply to emails, make copies, all that lovely intern stuff. I'm actually having a lot of fun though. We'll see if it stays that way when I start going full time.
The new apartment is good. It's a nice place. Utility companies are killing me. It took forever to get the gas turned on, and Cablevision messed up so we have to wait another week for cable/internet/phones. Bah. So it has it's problems but I'm having fun with it. We're having the inaugural party there this Friday (6/16). Should be good times. Everyone's welcome. Feel free to stop by.

So, birthday this week. Crazy. Don't know where that came from. We're going out Wednesday to celebrate. Call me if you wanna join ;-)

back to the homework.
