homeworkness
And just as I thought I was catching up, Dr C killed us in homework today!!! He gave us a $#!+ load of work for this weekend!!! I think I'm going to die! x.x {{dies}} Well, there, I did. Of course, I'm going to be getting some extra tutoring time in. With all the homework we have to do, Rob, James, and Keisha all asked if I was free over the weekend to help them out.

job goodness
Rob e-mailed me! I had just been thinking of calling him and he e-mailed me today to let me know that he picked me to do the front end of his website. I'm so excited! Of course, front end means he has more than one person working on this, which I'm seriously going to need. Doing a database style website is a lot of work. I'm glad I only have to do part of it.

job badness
The woman from SUNY SB called and said their position was only part time. She said there's a full time programming position on their website. Unfortunately, I have to go through the entire application process again because it's a different department or something. x.x;; I'll look into it and see if it's worth applying. I don't know if I'm qualified for it.

I also didn't go to the job fair at school today. Frankly, I wasn't thrilled with the idea of going. The main reason is because most of the positions the companies that show up are looking for are not what I want to be doing. I hit the last job fair at the school and the selection sucked... to be blunt. I really wasn't in the mood to go and be discouraged that no one was looking for someone with my talents and major.

job choice-ness
Hopefully, I'll find out tomorrow about that Secretarial position at Benjamin and Williams. Then, I'll call NBTY on Monday. Depending on how much information I can get out of the guy on the phone tomorrow about B-n-W, I'll give my answer to NBTY about continuing their interview process. I have a feeling I might go through it anyway, just so I don't lose a chance at the position if the B-n-W thing doesn't work out.

paidness
Or lack thereof... o.o;; The school still hasn't paid me. I don't know if they pay at the end of the semester or what. Unfortunately, Bob Vertuccio (my boss and the Assistant Dean of Academics) wasn't in his office when I dropped off my paperwork. I'll have to give him a call soon and see what's up with that. The woman that was there when I applied didn't say what the pay period was. ;_;

coldness
It's supposed to hit a whopping 8 degrees tonight. That's cold here! Long Island sits just off the Gulf Stream, so we don't get cold and snowy winters like this one often. I just hope we don't miss class because of snow again (we're supposed to have snow again all weekend). As much as it's really neat to have a snow day and all, we can't afford to in these 8 week classes. As it is, Dr Gibbons says he can't open the school next Monday (it's a holiday, but we were going to go in anyway to make up what we missed) and we have to go in on the 21st instead. Just what I want to do all Friday night... 5:30 to 11 pm... x.x {{dies a third time in one post}}

rainbowness
Tomorrow's the 'big' night. We have mock Initiation, Elections, and Installation. Hopefully, Ally will make it. I've been trying to reach her for the past two days, but she hasn't been home and I think Ita (her grandmother) forgets to give her the message that I called. I also wish my mom would make some of the calls, too. I get too discouraged to put effort into making a ton of phone calls for people to come to things and then no one shows up. {{sigh}}

valentine-ness
And thanks to Estelle, we have Valentine's Day cheer in one of my comment links. ^_^ YAY! Since I'm not seeing anyone, I probably wouldn't have posted anything myself about it. Her poem was really sweet, though, and dedicated to her husband. *_* Sweetness!!! I just had to say something where everyone could see. If she lets me, I can move it here onto the main page for tomorrow's post so it's posted for Feb 14th. It's just a really nice poem.

ness-ness
I couldn't help it... I was going to make my last title "be mine", but all the other titles were 'ness' titles. So, I went themed tonight. ^^;;
