The ball is rolling- albeit slowly.

I haven't been updating this blog because life has been a little crazy.

First off, my laptop has been dead since early July and I have yet to buy a new power supply cord for it. (I'm a slacker.)

Another reason for my absence is that I have so many new people in my life and as much as I love spending time with good friends and loved ones, I am starting to miss my precious "me" time. But it's hard to schedule me time when I'm trying to work around everyone else's schedules! I guess I just need to make my own schedule and stick to it? I don't want to end up that one person who doesn't do anything she wants when she wants because she is depending on everyone else to agree first. Make sense?

I'm also busy with getting my shiz together for CCP so that I can start classes in the fall. So far it's been going along alright- I took my CPT last week and I have an advisory meeting next Tuesday-but I'm still afraid I may not get the financial aid I need. Let's keep our fingers crossed ya'll!

And then there are all of my various jobs.
  • I just recently finished up with PIGLFF and received my last check from the Philadelphia Film Society for my time.
  • I am now hoping to get a part-time job at a law firm in center city. A very close friend of mine has been talking me up and says the jobs pretty much in the bag as long as I pass a typing test and don't act like a fool in my interview. Tomorrow I will be having lunch with him and he is going to help me with my resume before I actually apply. If I get the job I will be starting sometime after Labor Day. Even with all of his assurance I am still really nervous. I realllllllly hope I get this posistion! (Since your finger's are already crossed for me, go ahead and use your toes for this one! Thanks!)
  • There's the job of watching the girls and taking them to any after school activities they may have this school year.
  • AND I just agreed to take on some hours at the neighborhood co-op for my Aunt and Uncle (in exchange for compensation, of course! :P)
  • Oh yeah, and I also agreed to volunteer for Jen Bendik (who I worked under during PIGLFF) at GreenFest Philly.

So do you understand now why I haven't blogged in a while? LoL. I am hoping to set aside more "chill" time so I can catch up on some reading, blog and make some ATC's and explore my artistic side a little more.

As for right now, I'm going to bed. Well, maybe after I read another chapter in Peter and the Starcatchers. =D
