lazy hazy crazy days of summer

deposit is IN! whoohoo.

Another thing I have to do before I leave is download all of the songs found on several of my dad's mixtapes, Read the Picture, MOREREMOMEMORIES, and the greatest one of all, Summer With Sylvester. Because it's not a summer without hearing "Hot Fun in the Summertime" or "Dance to the Music". Plus, I'm going to miss all of my social buddies, hopefully I will be able to get a dance party up in hrrrr (aka Toronto).

happy tomorrow again!

Alright, so I did my tax return...*yay*, but I was disappointed to learn that I wasn't getting much back. At least I don't have to pay anything yet but who knows when that'll change.

I worked my little butt off yesterday on The Bottom Line...in the span of 2 days I worked on it for probably 20+ hours, and it's probably the best issue out of the three--better articles, better images, better layout. I'm excited to see the printed copy. And I will be updating the website as soon as I get some motivation.

Instead, tonight, I had better get started on a powerpoint presentation that my prof sprung on us yesterday and is due tomorrow. Who does that? It's going to be awesome because of my group (of 3--most other groups have 4-6 members), I'm the only one who has commited any time to working on it. Yep, yep.

I'm just semi-happy--we'll put it at neutral because at long last, the summer jobs are popping up so I'm not feeling so worried about the summer. I WILL find a job, I WILL be able to afford rent and food, I WILL find a way to pay for my remaining year of university, and dammit, I WILL have fun while doing it!

pick up your number

I got my resumé in for the job that I am really passionate about getting for the summer...let's hope I at least get a call back!

I've been pretty hush-hush about what I'll be doing for the summer around my parents, but I showed him the job description and my coverletter so he could edit it, and he thought I had a good chance for at least an interview...he didn't mention anything about the fact that I would be leaving Winnipeg for the summer in order to do the job. Perhaps he didn't realize that I'd be leaving Winnipeg whether or not I got this job.

But enough about that job...I have to keep it at the back of my mind because I have a lot of projects and exams to get through before that time comes, and I have to semi-face the possibility of not getting hired.
