i have a job!

i have a job for next year which means free room and board and about $6000 less to pay for my college education next year! woohoo! yes yes... i did indeed suffer through the rigorous and time consuming process of applying for staff in the residential halls for next year and yes yes... i did indeed get the job. i can now proudly say that i will be a CA in Pray-Sims next year. being the international hall... i plan to become well versed in international, umm, stuff (yeah, that sounded intelligent). initially i wasn't so excited about being assigned to that hall. selfishly i didn't like the thought of one of my challenges will be that of a large section of my residents will be international students and not excited by the fact that i won't have a co-CA for my floor, but as i become more adjusted to the idea, it's growing on me. and actually, i will have a co, but it'll be a guy. pray-sims, for those who don't know, is a male hall and a female hall essentially connected in the middle by the elevator (yes, i'll be in the only hall with an elevator), so technically, instead of the T shaped hall with one gender floors like i live in now, it'll be an L shaped hall with a male wing and female wing. or this is what i've been told... i really don't know much about pray-sims since i've been in it a total of 2 times, only once past the lobby. so far i've been told that one of the guys that got hired is really awesome, so that's good, and if the hall director that was offered the job accepts it, i'll apparently just love her, so i'm hoping for that. so things are brightening up for me. in other news... i think i might have found a potentially very good summer job as well... dependant on application and interview of course. *sigh* for the moment at least, i'm feeling pretty good about myself.
