A word from your local Admissions Rep

Just a tip for those who are applying for a job or admission into a school. If you don't get a response from your contact person, wait a day not an hour before you resend it. Especially think of the school or business' office hours before you get anxious. I've had a student who does this and it's a little irritating. If I get an email after 5pm I will not check it. I've made a new rule that if I'm not traveling, I will not check my work email. Recently, my phone kept beeping when I was home, so I finally checked and it was the same email from this kid about 6 times. Not. a. fan. Don't irritate the person that's trying to help you. Regardless of how annoyed I am with a person I will still help them. I'm fair with all students but I don't know how others function so you never know! So that's tip #1. I'm sure I'll have more.

Saturday Fun

So I have decided to start a new tradition for my weekends. I will do absolutely NOTHING. And it will be amazing. Okay I know that's unrealistic and not healthy but I'm tired. I travel all the time and I just want a weekend where I wake up and not do any traveling. Except I miss my family who live in other cities so there will be some weekends that I will travel. Another fix to this solution would be to hire someone to drive me down there. I know I've become lazy.

As far as this weekend I told myself I wasn't going to do anything but I got a call to go to the children's museum with my sister and my niece so I wouldn't pass that offer up. The day consisted of going to the museum, lunch break at my favorite, back to the museum, and girls' night with the niece. It was a good Saturday. I can't pass up moments to hang out with the niece. I'm actually a sucker for all my lil babies (my niece and nephews, I don't have kids of my own). Here are some pictures of the day.

Here she is picking out her groceries in a hurry.

Getting the necessary cheese, milk, and pancake mix.

Checking out of the grocery store.

Not a picture from today. I took this picture because I was trying to make a shirt and I needed a picture of the chapel but I like it.

Work Work Work

Coming back to work was HARD! I had a very relaxing break which didn't require that I travel. Because of my job I am constantly on the road so not having to get back on the road was nice! I do enjoy that most of the areas I travel I get to see my family but this year they came up to see us! I had the week after Christmas off and I did absolutely NOTHING. It was amazing! The highlight of my Christmas break was a lot of hanging out with these little guys and my family! yay fun times!

This was just for you Cait, happy? :)
