Hey guys!
I know I haven't posted in over a week. I have been so stinking busy! My blog is not something that is a priority! Don't get me wrong, I love to write in my blog.. but there are other things.. such as LIFE that get in the way that I have to tend to first!
Working in a banquet hall leads to a hectic and crazy schedule. We have weeks where there's probably two events going on and really low working hours.. and then there are weeks where every day there is an event.. except for Sundays because we hardly ever have events on Sundays! So this past week and a half have been booked with events at work, and me being considered a "full-time worker"... gets me to the top of the totem pole for "first come" hours. I don't know if that makes sense or not.. but basically my mom and I get the most hours depending on the amount of events going on and what not. Yes, I work with my mom! How cool, huh? So.. with it leading into the wedding season, I'm about to start seeing many rehearsal dinners and wedding receptions at my work which leads to busy weekends at work. I love my weekends off.. but as an independent college student, I have to take what I can get. The age I'm at too leads to many weddings that I'm taking part in which calls for buying bridesmaids dresses and what not. Which are not cheap! I love to be in friends and family weddings, but I have to work a little extra so that I can have those opportunities! So in other words, I have been working non-stop it feels like.. over the past week and a half!
Also, I had my second interview for radiology school this past Friday. My first one was at UMC and my one on Friday was at Hinds Nursing Allied campus. I always get extremely nervous doing interviews.. especially with 6-10 very important people asking you questions! It's like impromptu and you never know what they're going to ask you! Some of the questions were crazy.. like how do I answer this off the top of my head. Overall, I think it went fairly well and I answered to the best of my abilities. annnnddd that's all that matters. I really have my heart set on one of the schools, but I'm praying for God to bless me with what he feels is right for me. and to tell you the truth, I can't wait to start radiology school! I know that it is going to call for some extensive studying hours and a crazy sleep schedule.. but we all know, you can do whatever you set your mind to! I truly believe in this statement. After working full time jobs; sometimes two.. and going to school full-time, and through high school.. I fully understand the difficulty of it all! I have stayed up all night studying just to find out that it really doesn't help much because by the time you go to take that test, you're so tired that you probably don't remember as much as you could if you would have gotten some sleep! Lesson learned.. So please be praying for me to get into radiology school. Will hear from Hinds the first of April and UMC the first of May! andd by the way, I'm taking an online English Literature II class right now that is kicking my booty. That's taking a lot of time as well. Literature is probably one of my weakest subjects. Thank goodness I don't find interest in that stuff because I am no good at comprehending those crazy poems!
I was finally off yesterday (in which I slept until 1pm)! Pitiful I know. I was also off today (in which I spent the day at the ball fields)! I needed to get some clothes washed, but by the time I got home and cooked dinner.. it was time to sit down and watch the season finale of the bachelor! So.. since I don't go to work until 1pm tomorrow, I will try my hardest to wake up at a decent hour tomorrow so that I can wash clothes! and then hopefully be off at a decent hour to finish that and clean my room.. because Lord knows it is a disaster and it's hot as heck in Mississippi! Which means it's time for bugs and what not! I'm not afraid to say it. This is Mississippi.. I do live in the hicks.. and there are woods surrounding me.. and there are bugs that enter my house in the hot summer weather! Get a grip.. it's life. no ewwing me!
Now I've discovered this "draw something" game and I'm addicted. So it's off to playing some more of that.. relaxing in my bed. and watching a couple of episodes of ONE TREE HILL! Do you realize that I'm on season 3 and they are in the 9th season on tv right now..? I have got to devote some special, non-productive time into this show to catch up! I'm trying! love you guys to pluto and back! Hope you enjoy!
a tired and exhausted,
Lauren
