Thank You, I am having a quiet weekend. I actually enjoy quiet weekends now. When I was in college I don't think those words, "Quiet Weekend" ever left my lips. Tonight I am sipping on a glass of Red wine and listening to music.
You must have just graduated in 2008, right? Mind if I ask you what it was like transitioning from being a college student to having to work all day, every day? I'm actually kind of nervous about what that's going to be like, especially since I'm quite irresponsible.

It really isn't that bad of a transition at all. I think for me what made it a little easier was I did a year of student teaching and was in the classroom all day the final semester of school. So that was just like working a full day anyway.

The hardest part will be working those 8-9 hour days straight at first. It will seem like you are about to collapse at the end of the day in the beginning. You will also have to adjust when you get home at 5 pm and then you have to fix dinner and do the dishes, take a shower and then that doesn't leave much time for yourself before you have to go to bed again. This will get better as you get into the routine. Good luck with Graduation. That is such an exciting time.

Sorry you're so cold, LilRed. I know what that's like. My room back at home is so cold that I absolutely cannot sleep without the space heater on.

I am being such a dork right now, lol. Apart from posting on CF, I'm also watching "Spice World" (anyone else remember that movie?). I used to be such a huge fan of the Spice Girls back when I was 10 and 11 years old, and I had forgotten just how catchy their songs are.

In some ways I wish I lived in the dorms at school because then I could have the temp. anything I wanted, but since I live only about 15 minutes drive to campus I commute and live in the igloo which I call home. :)
Well, at the dorms at my school (which is where I am right now), it's always way too hot. In fact, I sometimes have to open the window in order to cool our room off a bit. So just be glad you don't have to deal with that, lol.
