Volunteering My Time

What do you mean I didn’t get the job? …Budget problems? But I was volunteering! -Carlton, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

It was so hard coming back to work this morning. Having four days off was so nice. I got a lot done, and I was also able to just put my feet up and relax. It doesn’t help that I still don’t like working at this IT inbound call center where I sit around and wait for the phone to ring. It does have its good points, like being able to blog. But I can’t wait to be a part of something more.

I signed up today for a volunteer opportunity with the Boys and Girls Club. It should be a lot of fun, and a good way to gain some field experience for teaching. I sent my application in at the beginning of the month, so I should be hearing back from my college any day now. From there, I’ll have to make the big decision: do I keep working as long as possible while going to school, or do I quit? It’s a scary idea, especially in this economic climate. So we’ll see-I’ve just decided to cross that bridge when I get to it. For now, I just hope I get in!


The Duplex and A New Chapter

Phillip: So Will, did you find a new place?
Will: Uhhhh, well Uncle Phil……
Carlton: Yeah, it’s a great place!
Vivian: How does it look?
Carlton: Well, it’s got ceiling-to-floor doors, and wall-to-wall floors!

I had to copy my blogger friend Brittany in the title, because, well, we got a duplex too!  We’re moving the first week of October, and I’m so excited! The way everything came together so quickly was kind of amazing. It was one of those moments where it just felt right. We met with the landlords, and I could tell Match and I made a good impression, but I was shocked at how quickly they approved us. The day after we met, we were approved. I’m headed over to the duplex tomorrow to give them our deposit! (more…)
