Gotta take the good with the not so good

I think we all know that life seems to dish out experiences in 2 scoops, 1 good, 1 not so good. Best course of action is to start with the bad scoop and swallow it down. Get it out of the way and don't think about it (or else you might puke due to the nasty taste). Anyway then you'll be free to enjoy the good.

Enough being philosophical. So the past 2 days have been kinda interesting. Finals are finally out of the way. Those buggers can be deceiving. I really have no idea how I did. I don't think I bombed either of them but then again you never know. Hopefully I'll get my B's and that'll be that. I wouldn't complain. It's kinda weird how jobs work for me. I had no sooner called one guy to tell him that I was gonna take a full time overnight on call position (only pays for 10 hrs a week since it's on call) and I got an email telling me they wanted me for something else. Hopefully I can keep this trend going after I graduate. I've definitely gotten lucky when it comes to that. I'm gonna be working for Bucknell. They aren't gonna pay me all that well but I was at Little League for 4 years and they wouldn't give me any more money either. Next year I think I may have a pretty good shot at one of those well paying Geisinger internships though so that would be nice. But this year I'll be doing the over night on call thing for them monitoring servers via pager and internet and then in the day I'm going to be on a crew installing wireless access points all over campus among other things. It's like my high school job all over again. Not sure if it's what I really wanted to do but it's just more stuff to add to my already long list of work experience in my field. Who knows, maybe it won't be bad. Just have to find out.

So tonight we went to an "interesting" little shop... It was kinda funny, definitely a new experience. Anyway I'm really pushing it. It's almost 3:30 and I need to be up early to finish packing, move out, and run some errands. I'm gonna post that big "year end retrospective" once I get home so you guys will all have that to look forward to. I warn you though, it's gonna be long.
