All together now! (with the proper Cockney accent, of course)
All Oi want is a room somewhere,
Far away from the cold noight air…
No, actually, all I want is a little certainty… Today has been an improvement in that I (after some stress yesterday) do have classes for next fall (contemporary American writers, grammar, and writing poetry). Still waiting for the music department to add me into voice lessons, though, but that’s the music department for you. I don’t think the secretary over there likes me either, but that’s okay, because I don’t really care for her…one of those people you just gotta deal with.
The big issue is still where I’m going to be in the summer. I’m still waiting on the one in New Orleans, but their deadline only passed two weeks ago tomorrow, so I suppose I’ll wait before I bug them. The New Hampshire one had no such good excuse, so I dropped my contact there an e-mail yesterday. And did get a reply today, so that was good. Still sounding like a definate possibility, though I’m not sure how I feel about being stuck in New Hampshire all summer. Well, maybe not stuck. Boston looks pretty close, there might be neat stuff going on in Boston. But certainly not dropping in at home for the weekend, the way I could from New Orleans. On the other hand, there is someone in the company up there offering to board an intern (i.e., me) for free. A very generous offer, and assuming this person doesn’t have indoor cats (dogs might be livable, provided it stays out of my bedroom), definately a point in favor of NH. Especially since both positions are unpaid internships. Whoo. So for the moment, we continue the balancing act and pretend that we know something.
The other thing that’s bugging me is this research paper I have to write for my humanities class….I need a thesis by next Tuesday and I currently am floundering in waves of cluelessness. Whee. There’s my weekend - in the library.
Oy.
