Eye of the Storm

Tuesday, May 11, 2010

Lots of exciting updates! I have successfully passed another semester of school. I’m quite excited about it. I’m that much closer to my goal. I will be transferring to IUPUI in the fall. It’ll be a great change. I’m really nervous about it. I have a ton of stuff to prepare for it. I have stuff to pack, give away or throw away. I am freaking out a little about it. My life is changing yet again. I wish I could explain how I feel. It’s sort of like I feel like I’m in the eye of the storm. I can see all this fast changes, I’m just standing here watching. I’ve worked so hard to get to this point, and now I’m in the planning stage again. I hate the planning stage. It’s tedious and slow. I also try to make plans and then I have to try to rearrange the plans because life throws me a curve ball. I work fast on my feet. I love challenges, but there’s so much a gal can love before she wants to flip out.

I have a new summer job. I’m excited about starting it on Friday. I’ll be working cashier, something I know how to do. I’ll be working with people which I love and hate at the same time. I do actually like working customer service. It’s interesting and challenging and working with new people.

The job I have been working at for the last three years is coming to an end. Sadly, movie rental stores are coming to an end. There are so many different changes coming with future technology and people wanting to not deal with people. We’re moving into a stage in the society where we no longer want to deal with people. This is causing hard working people to lose their jobs, because we can’t stand walking into a store and actually having human contact. We’d much rather just order it online or off our tv. I have friends who feel this way and it drives me crazy. I haven’t said anything because I don’t want to offend them, but I wish people could see what they’re doing. I’m not saying I don’t have any part in this. I know I’ve ordered things online and that I have on occasion gone through the self check out lines. I try to make sure that when I can I try to work with a person. Our service is what keeps their jobs.

Alright off my high horse.

I’ll write later. I hope you all have a great day. I am excited about all the changes this summer, I’m just cautious because of all the beautifully damaging storms in the past.
