My Heart Belongs in East Lansing

Well I was going to upload some pictures, but Blogger isn't letting me for some reason. I have some really nice football pictures and some fantastic campus pictures. Bummer.

It's been a while since I updated, I seem to be unable to keep this reasonably up-to-date, but never the less I am here today! State won the big game 3 weeks ago, and proceeded to win the next 2! Hopefully this streak keeps up because I don't like being depressed about football since I know it's irrational to get so worked up over something I have no control over.

The beginning of this week is fall break, which means no classes today or tomorrow. I should be getting some work out of the way, but I'm choosing to de-stress and relax instead. In the long run I think this is the better decision. I've gotten a fair amount of YA reading done which is nice and keeps me sane. I also finished my shrug that I've been crocheting for the past month. It's a little tight in the armpits, but it will have to do. I don't have time to make another one before Halloween. With this project finished I'm going to start trying to make a pair of finger-less gloves, which is probably good for when my hands are freezing in class but I still need to take notes. Hopefully it will be a success. I also ordered a bunch of yarn last night so that I'll have some for future projects. I would like to crochet more since it helps to keep my hands busy in class and keeps me from web surfing.

The rest of the break I am going to spend a little bit of time starting to look for a job. I feel like it's almost too soon to look, but I am at least going to try and find all the public libraries in the area that I would ideally like to work and bookmark their employment pages. I should also work on my resume a bit and come up with a cover letter. It may be time to make an appointment with career services to get some things ironed out. But I think for now looking up libraries will be a good start.

After spending the afternoon walking through campus and taking pictures I think that finding a job around EL would really be best. I just love being here. Something about it just makes me feel like everything is right and good. There aren't very many other places I've ever felt like this, and I know here at least there's a slim chance I could find a job. Plus Chris seems set on going to LCC and then transferring to work on this second degree idea of his and I'm sick of being far away from him. I really do spend as much time as I can here, partly because of Chris and partly because this place is home for me right now, more so than any other place. I really do love EL.
