Ready for the summer
Gah... I'm so ready for summer. Recently I've had a lot on my plate in terms of decisions regarding the future. I'm not going to be working with Jon next semester which means I have to find a job. It also means I'm not totally tied to middlesex. Putting more and more thought into it, I feel like Boston might be a good place for me to call home for a while. The community college there, Bunker Hill, has classes that far surpass those at middlesex, and there are more great schools to choose from to transfer to after wards. Finding a job won't be hard, its the second biggest city on the northeast coast. It seems to make sense in general.
I phoned a friend about a place to stay for cheap and he was more than willing to take on a fourth roommate in the tiny one bedroom where he currently resides. Green light number one, I have a place to stay with good friends that will hold me accountable.
I think I've decided that whenever I do make it to an undergrad school I want to double major in both english and math. I'd love to be a writer, but not sure how good of one I'd be. So as a back up plan, I think I'll teach math. I've always done well with math, and I think I want to try and find a job as a tutor in math somewhere in the inner city. Green light number two would be finding a job like that.
So this week I'm wrapping up finals and next week I think I'll spend some serious time flooding the city with resumes and applications. On my "off" time this week I think I might type up some specific resumes.
The real thing I'm wrestling with is I want to do God's will in all this. Thats a hard thing to clarify sometimes. So like, I want to go to Boston and apply for jobs, but I'm not sure how often I should go up this summer. And, I still have that interview with ESPN. If it turns out Boston is a flop, I want to have the option to always turn to ESPN if I need to. So theres an indefinite window of time that either needs to be restricted or at least somewhat defined.
All in all, I'm very ready to start being Jon's friend again and not his employee. Our patients for each other is wearing thin. I've learned a lot this past semester, but I'm ready now to move on...I'm trying not to be bitter about things that have happened, but its hard while I'm still in the middle of it.
