Wasting Daylight

Today, I have been a giant waste of carbon molecules. Maybe it's the fact that I got pretty trashed last night in about an hour, and felt hell-like this morning. Maybe it's a lack of drive to do my school work, maybe it's the strong nesting instinct I'm feeling know. Maybe it's a lot of things but the fact remains: today, I did nothing.

Don't get me wrong, I've filled the hours, but not in any meaninful sense. I had brunch with Matt, Will, and their cute friend Joel, and then walked to Blackstone to see Matt's new room. I did a load of laundry, cleaned my room a bit, and drank a lot of coffee. I'm going to celebrate kicking ass on the LSATs with Ben and Kira. I didn't kick any sort of ass today.

I GOT A JOB!! Yeah! I'm a rockstar! I interviewed at STRIVE tutoring Friday (no, i don't yet know what that stands for) and I really feel that that's the place for me to be. STRIVE Tutoring is a program that's been around for 16 years and reaches approximately 60 kids from first through twelth grade. I'm going to be doing a lot of logistical work such as making sure the tutors meet with their kids (most of the tutors are volunteers. Neato, huh?) and arranging for the proper pick-up with the van service. I'm also going to get to start new programs, such a theatre class! Plus, $12 an hour ain't bad! The people are uber nice and it's at 50th and Ellis. I think I'm going to like working there. It was kinda funny: I told them I'd let them know on Monday, when I'd heard back from all the other places, like I did at the Black Star Project. But, as I walked out of the building, I realized that this was the good job, the one I wanted. I didn't have to wait and be anxious anymore. It's so very nice to be employed.

I'm going to go find Kira and get on this pizza ordering, beer drinking shin-dig. Maybe tomorrow will be more productive. I don't think it can get more pointless then today.
