Who Knew You Could Get Paid for Making Flyers?

Salutations!

That greeting always stuck with me after Charlotte's Web... Sorry not to post yesterday, I sort of ran out of time. I attended my three classes, from 10:05-4:05, then ran down the hill and changed clothes then went back to Baba and Angi's hotel and hung out there for a bit. Then we went out to dinner at Ristorante Gondoletta again, except this time we just ordered salad and lasagna, and the chef gave us a free shrimp and fish sampler... Although we may have been taken advantage of the night before, the chef (and adorable, round, tiny Swiss-Italian grandpa type) did extend himself with the free fish. It was lovely. The location of the restaurant really couldn't be any better, right on the lake. Like it's a little piece of dock that extends over the lake, where all the tables are. After that I headed back to Girasole and finished up some homework amidst a fair amount of ruckus. The door was broken again. ::sigh::

This morning I went to German class and then Marketing. What did I learn? Hmm... In German I learned how to conjugate some verbs in the present tense. That wasn't so bad. People keep telling me that German is very difficult to learn, and it's rather intimidating, but so far I think I'm doing all right. In Marketing, we talked more about the consumer market. We took the VALS survey as homework last night to figure out what type of person/consumer we are. My primary type is Innovator, and my secondary type is Achiever. We're going to discuss all that goodness on Friday in class.

Then, after class, I had my very first interview. That was exciting. Unfortunately I wasn't able to print out any of my papers/writing samples/etc. because they never, ever, ever have any computers with working printers open for use at this silly school! So that was annoying. But still, I think it went pretty well. She said I can expect to be getting an e-mail from her once she figures out hours and positions and whatnot. So I could be doing anything from tutoring to making signs (ha ha! perfect job for me, yes? who knew that I could potentially get paid for flyers?). I don't actually know yet if I'll be volunteering or paid, but we'll see. I just want something to put on a resume... Normally, they don't hire freshmen, or even sophomores, they only hire juniors/seniors, but it sounds like I may have wheedled my way in. Thank you Charles Wright!

Then I went and had turkey and mashed potatoes for lunch... and walked back down the hill. But only after receiving yet another wonderful package from Oma! Hooray! And I received a Seattle postcard yesterday too. It made me so happy!

As soon as Deniz gets done with class and gets back down the hill, we are going to go grocery shopping and gelato (if we have enough time). We have Academic Travel meetings at 3:30pm at the top of the hill. And then I think I'm going to go to yoga at 5:15pm before meeting Baba and Angi at 6:45 for dinner. We'll see. Maybe I'll skip yoga today and go to the morning class tomorrow; I might be trying to squish too much in, especially since I have homework to do... Forgot about that. Of course I do have two hours between classes.... Yeah, actually I should probably do homework. Whoops. All right, more later.

Smile :-)
