Finally, finally, FINALLY my summer classes have wrapped up. I ended up with a 3.75 GPA for the summer term thanks to the B+ I got in Environmental Science.
That said, I spent the past two weekends camping, goofing off, and just getting caught up on things like housecleaning, registering Evie for pre-K, and all of the things I somewhat neglected to do while I was busy reading textbooks. Four or so more weeks, and it all starts up again!
I need to get some inventory thrown together for the store, as well as developing some organizational system to streamline stock and shipping. I wonder how many Pitt students knit. Half of the people I know on Ravelry are college students... so I wonder how many of them go to UPB. Hmm. I could compose a colorway exclusively for Pitt, if the Panther Shop would carry it, that is.
Do you know that sheer, abject panic that you have before you people come stay at your house? Like you somehow think that they're going to lay on the floor and look under your baseboards to make sure that you've vacuumed under there? That's what I have going on today. I have irrational cleaning issues, I suppose. I actually thought about recaulking my shower because the caulk that is there just doesn't look white enough.
And on Thursday, we leave to go camping. We won't be at Cayuga Lake as originally planned (had a little fiasco trying to make changes to the reservation, which got scooped up in the interim), so I'll be on the shores of Lake Ontario, between Buffalo and Rochester. This might mean that we spend a day at the Niagara Falls State Park, hiking about and whatnot. Either way, it'll be fun. I'm so looking forward to a break!
This is my last week of my Criminology class. My internship is so much fun, but I'm always exhausted by the end of the day. It's not physical by any means (unless you count all of the stairs we go up and down every day), but it can be emotionally draining with the amount of information we go through. I'm currently working on a research project dealing with the juvenile justice system in Pennsylvania, since so many changes are being made to the way things are done here, especially in the aftermath of the Luzerne County cases. I love it though. It's a great group of people to work with, and now there's another intern (who also attends UPB) so I get to discuss things with him as well.
Well, I'm off to mop floors, do laundry, and organize equipment!
