And when that story is a television series available on Netflix, I watch it for hours on end, as I did with Lost today. Wednesday was such a long, tired day, and I used it to rationalize taking the day off from subbing, sleeping in, and then allowing myself to get sucked into the Lost world.
I got the tutoring job, but I'm not sure if I'm going to stick with it. It's really far away (about a 25-minute drive), which would be okay if I had more availability. Currently, my schedule has me driving out three times a week for an hour each. Needless to say, I am looking for work elsewhere.
Classes are still going excellent. I have a much better work ethic compared to my undergraduate self. I make flashcards for tests and everything! I've recently applied for a Graduate Assistantship in the university's Housing Department, which would be a blast and a great help professionally and financially.
I've picked up "running" again. I use quotations because the term is misleading to my current level of ability. Jogging is a better term, with an intent to slowly increase time and speed. My friend and running partner, Katie, suggested we do this event called the "Warrior Dash" in the summer. It's something like a 5K combined with an obstacle course. Crazy.

School is back in session, my friends. I have been back in school for a month now, and I feel great about it. I'm doing well in my classes so far; both of my two tests were A's. My favorite class is Applied Phonetics, mostly because I like playing with the International Phonetic Alphabet.
I am still working as a substitute two days a week, and I'm interviewing for a tutoring position on Monday for some extra cash. I've also applied for graduate assistant positions for the coming school year.
There are some necessary changes happening in my personal life as well, which I'm anxious about. But I have faith that things will work out the way they are supposed to, and I will come out a stronger person no matter what happens.
Short little blip. More to come.
