I intended on spending my two days off traveling to the International Wolf Center up in Ely, Minnesota. However I cannot afford a hotel, the gas, and food. I did my laundry already this week so really all I have to do is go grocery shopping. Do I want to? Not really.
In other words I have spent my day off lying around and doing nothing but applying for jobs that I will hopefully get this upcoming school year. I have so far applied at McDonalds in Logan OH, Subway in Nelsonville and Plains OH, Burger King, Rocky Boots, and at the school as a Library Support member. Hopefully I will get at least one position that works with my school schedule. If not, I guess I will have more time for other things such as homework, projects, adventuring, reading, and TV. Beyond that, who knows what I will do.
I'm hoping the rest of the day will be full of adventures of some sort. I consider going out to eat or hanging out with my coworkers as an adventure anymore. Watching a movie sounds awesome to me. If not I wasted this day then but may go out tomorrow. Not sure. Overall I honestly want to go home. It's not that I do not love it here but I miss home too much. I will miss this place once I leave but as the days tick by I just want to leave more and more. Only 15 more days left since I am leaving the 13th instead of the 15th now. I almost wish it were possible to fly home for a day and fly back but then I wouldn't want to leave. I'm just home sick is all. Otherwise I still enjoy being here.
Day 80
Its a shame that all I am doing is sitting up here still. Yesterday I was filling out job applications to a variety of places in the Nelsonville/Logan/Athens area. I am hoping to acquire a job somewhere that works with my school schedule. Im willing to work anywhere; including McDonalds. Money is money when it comes to any job that is not natural resources related. I hope to work at Subway or Rocky Boots. I would not mind being a Sandwich artist. Rocky Boots is associated with natural resources in a sense so even though its a restaurant job I could still cook up the occasional bison burger. We will see how things go; just have to stay hopeful. I truly hope to find something at the school or natural resources related before anything but customer service work never hurt anyone.
I am going to continue searching for things to apply to today and at some point will go out and get groceries because I cannot avoid it anymore; unless of course I don't eat but that' impossible for me. Do I for see any adventures today? Not really. I may go out on my next day off though (Wednesday). Why do I have so many day off lately? Because I switched with people quite a bit and this is what I ended up with. I do not mind taking day to jut chill out and forget about everything honestly. Not seeing everyone though is honestly making me somewhat sad but tonight the assistant education director's parents have invited everyone over for a cook out so I intend on going to that later. Hopefully everyone else will as well; I miss hanging out as a large group with everyone.
UPDATE: Pictures added!!
