I usually don't mind working at CT. Then, there are days like today. We started using the pagers today, and I got buzzed quite a few "extra times" when it wasn't my food. WHat do I do? I go running back to the kitchen, and when I get back there, the food they want me to take is for some table that I've never even heard of, much less am serving. I better get used to it I guess.
Crazy stuff. I actually didn't talk to my friend at school today... well, not much. She was sitting at one of the tables in the lounge, and I sat at one of the computers. She looked busy, and I wasn't going to get off the computer to go over and have her feel guilty for ignoring me because she had her head in the books. It's weird though, because we NEVER don't talk, or at least hang out together at that time. If we have nothing to say, we play cards. Didn't happen today. Makes me kind of wish I had stepped off the computer and took the chance. Oh well, we'll make up for it *somehow*.
I visited Messiah yesterday, and although I was impressed, it wasn't as nice as St. Mary's. I do however, like the "Christian" atmosphere that surrounds the place. If I went there, I would be saying to myself that I wanted to go in a direction that led me toward some sort of missions or service work... and I haven't totally ruled it out yet.
The only thing that bugs me about that atmosphere, is that it isn't true to the world. As a Christian, I need to be "in" the world so I can have the oppurtunity to "change" it. So, I kinda feel like a school where there is a diversity of beliefs would be best. It's not like St. Mary's is full of devil worshippers. If I went there, I would find a group of Christians to encourage me and build me up just the same.
All this aside, I still don't have a reason to go to either of those schools over UMBC. It is closer, cheaper, and just as good a school. So for now, UMBC is my school of choice.
Tomorrow's Valentine's Day. Why does that keep ringing in my head? I don't have a valentine this year, and I never have in the past (cept my mom). Sihj. So why do I keep subconciously bringing it up? Wish I knew. I don't even get candy for Valentine's.
Bis Spater!
