still hungry
I had a small dinner after I got home from class, so now I'm hungry again...

homework tedium blues
YAY!!! Less homework this weekend from math!!! Of course, that only means I'll be spending all that time working on my career development portfolio. x.x;; {{dies}} I also have to type up the presentation during the day tomorrow so I have it to show Mark tomorrow. I think I'm going a bit overboard with all my certificates, but she wants them in there. I have all sorts of silly ones that I can stick in there to make it look I did a ton of stuff. ^_^;;; I still have a lot of typing to do for the other stuff. But, I think I'm just going to put my resume in as the last one I sent out, along with the last version of my cover letter. I just hope I have enough page protectors. I think I have some more upstairs. I also have to ask Mom or Dad if one of them can bring home dividers from work. Either that, or see if I can borrow some cash to buy new ones.

Either way, I have a lot of work to do. Those CDP pages in the book are rediculous. O.O;;; I'm going to be really busy tomorrow during the day. I hope I can get a lot of it finished before I have to leave.

school stuff
I have make-up tomorrow night, but we're thankfully not going to be there from 5:30-11 pm. We only have to get there at 8:25. However, I'm going in at 6 to help Rob with his math homework and to help study for the upcoming final. We were supposed to have a test tonight, but the trains got all whacky, making Dr C late again. So between that and the snow day on Tuesday, we didn't have a test. He went over the homework, showed us some new stuff, and gave us review problems and new work to do for homework tonight, instead. It wasn't bad. I actually learned some new stuff that I didn't learn in the math classes I took at Suffolk. So, today's class was interesting. The next chapter is right angle trigonometry, so that should pretty easy for me, too.

I was thinking of keeping this book to use it for tutoring as long as I can. That way, I'll at least get the $110 out of it instead of just using one third of the stupid thing.

I also want to go over this new stuff we're doing. I got something wrong and I don't know how I got it wrong. I need to double check it somewhere and find the problem.

doctor visits
Mom was home late again today. Yesterday, she took Auntie Lyn to the doctor (Auntie Lyn's not allowed to drive yet after her stint in the hospital), and, today, she took Nana to the doctor. {{sigh}} I hope they keep these late appointments. If I get a job, none of us will be able to take them during the day.

speaking of jobs
Dad found a neat website with FBI and other gov't jobs on it. I'm going to check it out and see if I can apply to any. They're waiving the experience requirements and hiring students and new grads. ^_^ It's worth a shot! Plus, I want to call Linda at SUNY SB and see if they got my last resume. I also didn't hear back from Zoraida or John or Andy about the NBTY and BnW things. As they say, if you have to call twice, you probably didn't get the job. {{sobs}} I hope I didn't miss out on that NBTY gig. She said I had time. Maybe I'll leave one more message tomorrow and see what happens...

and now...
...to get something to eat...
