Today is Thursday the fourteenth of April. What a great day, I guess? I mean, my meeting with my professor went well; she loves my new research paper topic and is very happy that I am much happier with the topic. I can’t believe that I only have two weeks to finish it, which I guess is a whole week longer than I originally had
before she pushed the due date back a week and a day. I am so very thankful for that.
In other news, as many of you probably know, UMD Bulldog Hockey brought home an NCAA Frozen Four Championship title! How exciting is that?! I work at the school store and it has been just chaotic the last few days. We are getting giant shipments of championship merchandise daily. We sold over $20,000 of merchandise in just four hours at the ceremony at Amsoil Arena on Wednesday night. Unreal! What a good deal for the store
though, right? And what a good thing for the hockey program at UMD!
There are 29 days between me and the end of my junior year at UMD. I am so excited, nervous and sad all at the same time. I am getting old, well older. Not gray old but “damn, I have to be more responsible” old and it is a scary time in my life where I can really only be sure of what is happening right at the moment. I can’t even be sure of what is going to happen tomorrow. All I can do is hope and pray that things work out in the end, right?
I have been working on getting a summer job too so that I can stay busy and not have too much down time to get sad and lazy this summer. The job hunt isn’t going very well right now though but hopefully it will turn around. I did get asked if I wanted to learn something new at the bookstore, so maybe there will be more of a summer job opportunity there. Hopefully, fingers crossed.
