So here I am. Last Tuesday of the internship. I can officially say I have finished ALL MY WORK (and then some!) My boss is out today..and tomorrow.. so I can't even tell him I'm done! But that's fine, I'll just find a mirror and go practice my "presentation." & by presentation, I mean dialogue around the table. I love how the internship coordinator said that we do it this way so we don't scare the engineers. let's just laugh about that for a sec. Everyone should be able to speak to a group. Sorry, but that's how I see it. Maybe I should hold my tongue though, because I seem to be a flop when it comes to speaking in front of a group without a PPT or without standing up in front of them. Eh, maybe I'll throw a dress on anyways and get my hair did. Painted my toes already so there's a little confidence boost, right? Need to back at QU now. Although, when I get there, I'll realize how little clothing I actually have that I like because I'm used to being dressed up everyday. Time for a shopping trip then, that will solve everything :) It always does.

Sunday I went to the beach with mom. I think I dragged her there but it was a blast and I love hanging out with my mom...and I love the beach... so it was a win-win situation. &&& Sarah and Michelle came!!!!!! I love having friends that will come meet me :) I'm golden brown and I just feel so much more confident when I'm glowing. Okay, so I may not be as dark as other people I know, but I think I'm doing okay. I want to try to go one more time to the beach before I go back to QU. Hopefully next Thursday or something. I just crave Sunshine. I know I would LOVE the feeling in the Winter when I get all grumpy, but I don't want to start tanning because I won't stop, and I really am in no rush to get melanoma, so I'll hold off on that.

Katie's moved into our room & I'm jealous. I wish I was there with her. I just need to get back and face the music. Really, it's time. I keep saying how I'll be fine once I'm back in the swing, but I just can't know until I actually do it. I'm over the issues we had at the end of last semester, and honestly, I can do without nuns and nasties but I just need to find my place again so I can get back on track... whatever that track may be. The Spring holds plenty of opportunity, but I just need to learn how to relax and figure out what's "FUN" for me in the fall. I have big plans.. to do nothing! :) (but knowing me, I'll do SOMETHING but I don't know what that will be yet. Perhaps some bagel-brunch planning?)

I'm ready to start packing. Too bad I can't do that at work... that would be so convenient. Other people who took summer classes use their downtime for writing papers and such but I don't have anything like that to work on. I'll just check out some CNN.com and see what's going on in the world. I do love the news, but I prefer hearing it on the radio or tv. My eyes get tired of reading!

Oh, PS. 3EB is supposedly coming to QU. I'm totally excited, but way to go SPB keeping that under wraps. You know what though, it's okay. People want to know, so give the people what they want! At least people are overjoyed about this one. & I prefer the open lines of communication... mainly mass communication, since I got kicked out of the inner loop. I really just hope that my old comrades don't forget about little old me.

peace & love
