I think Full Time Students should get overtime pay.

Hello dears lots has happened in too many places...story of my life, and the last 4 months. I'm back to school for my last semester (don't ask 'so what are your plans?'...That's so hard to answer.)

Summer was amazing by the way. Brief: Went to Argentina. Lived in Florida with my Best, Heather. She got engaged and now I'm helping her plan a wedding, and honeymoon in Greece! I got tan, learned to live on little $, worked at a 7-eleven full time for a month, practiced my spanish and koreans, and did some Zumba and a few memorable Karaoke nights.

I thought this would be an easy semester but it turns out I'm busier than ever with meetings for the club I'm president of, and various other activities I've roped myself into. Granted, I'm doing lots of stuff that involves culture, volunteering and current events, so I'm enjoying most of it but it's tiring to have every minute booked. I'm truly a fan of 'google calendar' because it organizes every hour for me...I went to a birthday party tonight after work and ended up talking about a meeting I have coming up for an event I'm planning. LAME.



Great things about the semester: my new roommate likes Michael Buble and is downloading my suggestions as we speak. The newest Korean girl is wonder woman to me...she's fixed our sink, helped rearrange my dorm, and fixed a computer. Besides that she's absolutely cool and we have the same shoe size (Girls you know how cool that is). Really love her (NaHyun)...and Jisoo who was here from last year is still one my best friends on campus - and plays a mean set of drums. Nahyun called me her "korean friend"...I love succeeding in being a wannabe 한국인/Korean. I've been getting close to that group of friends I've had back in Freshman year but it's more fun this time. I DO MISS my friends that graduated last year, especially IBA friends Natalie and Laura. Plans are in the making to visit Laura...and to meet an old Korean friend in NYC -- have to use that little money I earn working my butt off somewhere fun. Plus in NYC I'll see some family and other friends. Love my life.

This semester's classes are mostly business, plus a soc and world history - not too bad. But I do think I deserve overtime pay for this job of being a full time student...wish my income tax prof would let me put that on my 1040 as a deduction.
