I'm so greatful right now. David, my advisor, gave me the Shop Assistant postion! Yeah, it's not a lot of money, I mean I'll get maybe 10 extra hours a week, but added to what I prospect for next Fall, I'll only have 18 hours in the SUN office due to classes, so it almost puts me at 30 hours a week, which would be nice. I mean, I can't work over thirty during the semester anyway, right? Ok, there are exceptions, like the Dome show last semester, but those are rare...

I've been thinking of about Grad School at lot lately, mostly worrying about if I'll actually get an internship somewhere that will help pay for some of my schooling. I've been trying to do research online through many search engines, and even think I might just look at each college in each state and see if they even have a program for Printmaking. But for I can even think about submitting applications, I have to do my show, which is another worry on my list. I think I have narrowed it down... but I still have to work out somethings.

Hopefully I get to go home before all the craziness starts over here with the concert. But with my current bills and things are making that decision almost seem impossible....

PS. JuiceBar... If you read this anymore. Only your "friends" can comment on your blog, not random readers... Maybe look into getting a blogspot if you want feed back.

Wish I could have stayed longer...

I already want to go back to California... Our trip was too short, but worth it. Spent time with my nephew Paul, made three different ice creams(well my siblings did), laughed with my parents on the porch, and tickled my nephew James. I think we are planing to go out there again in about a month.

Work is starting to suck even more. I left today after 4 hours of being there, even though I should have stayed longer, I need the hours.

I'll post pictures later, since I've been taking them but not uploading them off of my camera... Sorry.

Looking for Empolyment?

My hours have been cut... GREAT! Now I've been told that I don't have enough to do to get the hours I need/want. I've been cut down to 25-30 hours a week. I keep dwelling on the fact that I was told I would be getting 40 this Summer working Grounds, only to be told that they decided to put me in the office doing nothing. Yes, there is prospect in the future, ie. working the front desk once we move, but that's not happening anytime soon, and doubt I'll even be doing that. I've been thinking of getting a different job, even though my current one is so flexible around my school schedule. But then again, the Print Shop needs a Shop Assistant, and I'm going to be in there all the time anyway, why not get paid for it, right? I should go fill out my Federal Work Study Papers and talk to Dave more...

Leaving Friday!

I'm so excited to be going home... Well it's not exactly home, but my family will be there. I really wish I could be there right now, but we still have to head to Phoenix first, but at least we just have to shoot across the I-40 on the way back. I can't wait to have a crank off, and actually make three kinds of ice cream.

Just when I think work is getting better... I'm sorry no wants to be in your crappy Gallery that no one walks through, but don't lie to me about what's currently in there, I talked to the artist yesterday... I never asked, or was explained to, about the gallery and it's procedures. Now I can't think of anything to write, or even what I was going to...
