Update on my Life

Oh my land! I've missed LiveJournal so much!

So, I quit pretty much everything because of Anatomy and Micro last semester.  I went through with quitting at the nursing home, and my grades improved because of it.  But I have missed my residents/taking care of people so much.  Even now that it's been four months.  I also quit voice lessons and avoided auditioning for any shows because of school (both of which I will eventually begin again).  So, now that that semester from you-know-where is over, my schedule is so empty.  I am only taking one class (plus institute) and working only one job.  It's so nice but sometimes frustrating because I feel most alive when I'm busy.

My average week goes something like this:
Monday through Thursday: I get up around 9 AM and study and watch TV for a few hours.  In the afternoon, I go to a couple hours of school and then do whatever I want for the rest of the day.  I hit the sack around midnight.
Friday through Sunday: I usually work 7-3:30 everyday, with the exception of Sunday.  Sometimes I work, and sometimes I have it off to go to church and whatnot.

I must admit, this schedule is pretty sweet.  But I really wish I had a second job so I could earn more money.  I could pick up more hours at the hospital, but housekeeping is really starting to drive me NUTS.  I can only handle it so much in a week.  Not to mention, having two jobs keeps me from getting bored and also makes it seem as if I am working much less than I really am.  I have some debt plus I know that once I get into the nursing program, it's going to be very hard to put in many hours at a job.  I need to have something saved!

So yup, that's pretty much the essence of my life.  If anyone knows of any good job openings around, let me know.  :)
