Plans for the summer and other random stuff

So after a long conversation with my mom today I basically decided that I need to stay in College Station for the summer. I don't know that it is exactly what I want to do, but the logical me has decided it is what is best. So now I am in the process of trying to find an internship in CS. I have sent my resumes to a few places and contacted some people that I know, so hopefully something will work out. Basically as much as I complain about my job, I really have a perfect job for myself. I don't work weekends, I can pretty much set my own hours within reason, and as stressful as it is sometimes, I know what I'm doing and it just comes down to being time consuming. I'm probably getting a raise over the summer as well and its more than I would make most places in CS part time. So in order to keep my job and not have to be back in forth between CS and wherever I was going to intern it is best that I say. Oh yea....and I'm pretty sure that my mother implied that she didn't think me living at home for summer was a very good idea. I tend to agree...weekend visits are fine, but I think living there for the summer would not be good.

Work has been pretty calm lately which has been nice and I've been able to get ahead in recital planning so that in April and May I'm not as busy. Probably not going to happen...but I can hope. Its been pretty great because I have basically been up at the studio working on recital stuff, playing on the computer and listening to music...I couldn't really ask for anything better. I went to dinner with Mindy earlier and it was nice to hang out not at a bar. I had missed her and it was just great to catch up. I'm glad things are okay between us again. Slowly I'm starting to realize what really is important and life and getting back some of the friendships that I have lost over the past year or so. We also talked about that phone call a few weeks ago...and honestly I don't know if the entire thing gave me hope that things someday would be okay or just a peace of mind. I guess we will find out Friday. For whatever reason though, I'm okay with things for once. Basically Friday is going to either be really good or really bad, but I'm looking forward to the show and spending time with my friends. Now if only the week would be over....I have no spare time this week, I've got study groups, meetings, projects, papers, and absolutely no time to clean my apartment. Oh well...I guess it will all get done somehow.

The way I clean my house is one room at a time. I find if I break it down into smaller parts, it's not so overwelming. kitchen on Monday, living room on Tuesday, bedroom on Wednesday, bathrooms on Thursday. They maybe take me 30 minutes at the most a piece.

I hope that the rest of your week goes well! Love you!

I'm in the middle of recital stuff too. I think I've finally got all my songs picked out. Preschool classes are so hard to pick songs for!

I think it's a good decision to stay there over the summer. I'll try to come down if I can! Good luck with the intern stuff!

Have fun Friday! love you!
