More Transitioning

So college is done. Commencement is in May, but I'll be receiving my degree in January. My final GPA: 3.459. This doesn't mean much, I know, but at least I wasn't slacking too hard the last 4 and a half years. Somehow I managed to earn a B+ in my Argentina class this last semester, although this is probably due in large part to the proofreading efforts of my Spanish-speaking friends. Whatever.

Been floating freely between Boston and Foxboro this last week. Starting today, I'll have a more permanent spot in the city as I'm serpent-sitting for Julie while she's away on break, and am receiving free housing in return. I've never had any sort of business with a snake before (literally speaking), but I think I'm gonna like this one as it's small, harmless and fun to play with.

I signed my lease a couple of days ago, so I'm very definitely moving in to JP on the 1st, and then life can take on some sort of normalcy... maybe.

At the moment, I'm 3 days through an 11 consecutive-day work stint. This sucks hard, but after my next paycheck, I won't be complaining, especially with the time and a half I get on Christmas. Still, I think my head might explode if I have to hear Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby sing about mistletoe for much longer. I get a few days off around New Years at least, I just need something to do for the occasion. I hate the idea of paying for a ticket to get in some bar or restaurant only to have to dish out again to get a few beers. Somebody needs to have a house party.

Ooh, and I know you don't care, but I got an 80 gig iPod for a graduation present. So hot.
