I almost forgot to post in here.

This week ACBU brought in the Band Perry to Bradley University. I'm not a big fan of country, but they did put on a good show. Being apart of ACBU allowed me to meet them and talk with them for a bit. They were really nice people. I was very impressed. Despite a few personnel issues, the concert went on smoothly and was overall a success.

Today, however, was a pretty bad day. I woke up an hour late because my alarm is on my phone, and my phone decided to stop working at some point overnight. So I ended up missing my first class on accident. Luckily I woke up in time for my presentation at 9 a.m. Following the presentation, I had an interview. It was okay I guess. Just felt a little off the entire time I was there. Came back to my apartment for about two minutes before I get called into work. Ended up working most of my night instead of getting much needed rest. Worst part of the night was when I came back to my apartment tonight, I learned that my apartment has flooded. 3rd time this school year. Not very happy with the apartment complex I'm in right now. Currently, I'm sitting on my bed along with everything that was on my floor to keep it out of the water. Hopefully this problem gets fixed AGAIN in the morning so it can be one less thing to worry about.

The little things

So last week was really hard on me. I ended up having to go home for the week, and I don't really want to go into detail about what all happened on here. But what surprised me is what I came back to when I got in back in Peoria. One of the organizations I'm in made me a handwritten card with personal notes saying they are they for me. By far the nicest thing anyone has done for me since I started coming to Bradley. It's the little things like that that truly make the most impact.

That's all I really wanted to share this week. Because it made my week.

Summer is coming up quick...

It's getting close to being summer break! The weather might not show it, but it's coming! So far I have some fun stuff planned, so I have stuff to look forward to! I have bought my Daniel Tosh stand-up tickets, my Bon Jovi tickets, as well as some Brewers vs. Dodgers tickets up in Milwaukee. Now all I need is a job to come up where I can afford to keep doing all of these things. With all the stress that comes from school, I'm really looking forward to an extended break from school where I can sleep in at least once a week! Summer weather, come soon!

I found myself starting to worry about life after college. It's starting to become a scary thought. My biggest worry is not being able to find work. Now I know what all my friends have been going through. One more semester for me, then time to start a career. I find myself not knowing what specific job to look for, or what company I would want to work for. Is that normal to not really have much of a preference? It seems like most people have a company in mind where they are striving for. It makes me feel a few steps behind. Hopefully over the next few months I can figure most of this stuff out. We will see.
