Temp

I have been hired! By Temporary Solutions in downtown D.C. I'll basically be doing various receptionist/concierege work on the weekends at various locations that hire from TSI. I'm excited about the job, not to mention the money that I'll be making through it. I took a trip downtown today around noon for my interview and to officially be hired. The TSI headquarters are located on Connecticuit Ave between K and L streets. I got off at the North Farragut metro station and I must say that I love that neighborhood. Very business district-y. Every time that I go to a new neighborhood in D.C. I'm surprised and delighted at how different it is from the last. Each neighborhood up here has a very distict flair, yet they all blend together so well. From the hip clubs of Adams-Morgan to the quaint, historic homes of Georgetown. It's all been great so far and I have so much more to explore and discovery in this town. I anticipate and relish it everyday!

Yesterday I finally registered for all of my classes at UMd and it's just what I needed. I love that campus, the school, even the atmosphere there: wonderful! I can't wait for classes to start and to see the campus get into "full swing." The residents move in sometime next week and classes actually begin on the 30th, so it's all coming together quickly. Before I left I stopped by the bookstore to get all of my books. The price of a text for college is so ridiculous, but college is mainly a money scam anyway. A necessary evil. But anyway, I got everything I need but for one book (it wasn't in stock yet). Then I headed back to the bus, then the metro, then my apartment all the while lugging my large bag of text books. Whew, that was a trip. But I got home and finished the day with business and needed to finish and an early bedtime.

Tomorrow I think I'll head back to campus and see if they have the book I need in yet or not. Then I'll have all day to mess around! Fun fun!
