So, here I sit, at a laptop.
It’s welcome week here at college, and the past three days have been insane. Every single freshman has a computer this year, I swear. And since there have been 3 class Four viruses going around, we’ve asked that everyone bring their PCs and laptops down here to be cleaned.
Consequently, that’s all I’ve done for the past 3 days.
I don’t mind it much, though. My boss has been really cool and given us subs and pizza and lots and lots of root beer.
I went down the business office last Friday, and they said they’d give me an extension if I brought in the 1000$ I had on Monday (which I did). I will pay a 1% interest on the remaining balance every month, but it’s ok. At least I’m here.
Naturally my parents went into a panic, and offered me money. I need to call them, though, because I’m not sure if I should take it. My little sister is going to college this fall, and money will even be tighter. I don’t know what to do. I need to call them, but our phones have been down, and when they are working I happen to get home late.
I’ve also been trying to get a hold of Prof. Feiser. He wants to do an independent study with me on cartooning, since our school currently does not offer it. But again, with the phones being down, it’s been tough. Most likely I’ll be able to call him today after work, though.
Regina is now working with me. She was interested in working for SCS last year, and so consequently, I did everything in my power to land her the job. And she did. She is very very smart, and a quick learner.
AND, since I have the most hopeless crush on her, it makes my work days go by incredibly fast.
You might remember that episode in which I visited her room.
But now I’m finding it incredibly easy to talk to her.
We got assigned to finish wiring up Boyer 2nd floor, and Berte (my boss) asked me to show her around and teach her the ropes of being a lab manager. She’s going to be a lab manager this year, and so am I. 😀
We spent several hours up there, just talking about all kinds of things, about her country & mine, about life at Messiah, about God & life… the time went so fast and the job got done so quickly we both were amazed.
It’s really nice to work with her, she’s so cheery and friendly and… frankly very very cute. 😀
She’s scheduled to work tomorrow, and Berte told me she might call me if she needed me. We’ll see.
