Work. That dreaded word. The opposite of laziness and relaxation, but something quite necessary, especially when paying out-of-state tuition to attend UI. Luckily I was able to scoop up a job this summer, and was able to avoid the stress of a frantic job hunt. I will be working as a teacher’s aid for elementary special education children. Although I’m an Art\/Entrepreneurship major with no interest in teaching, I still think it will be a great job to have and an awesome learning experience. My mom is a teacher and I’ve volunteered in her classroom before, so I know what to expect. Tomorrow is my first day, so hopefully all goes well!<\/p>\n
In other news, I also acquired a different job! This semester I will be working on-campus as a Student Dining Associate in the Hillcrest Marketplace! I placed an application online a few days ago, and I got a call today offering me the job! It might be a little hectic now with classes, marching band, my sorority, and now a job on top of all that. But it will definitely be helpful to have an income during the school year so I don’t have to depend on the money I make during the summer! Although I won’t be making much, it is still a nice cushion to have. I’m anxious to add work to my hectic schedule, but I’m excited. So if you ever see me working down in the Marketplace don’t be afraid to say hello!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
