Motivation and registration

I don't know what happened this morning, but holy crap. I woke up this morning with all kinds of excitement and motivation. I have a plan! Yes, that's right. Hoddie has a plan! I haven't had a plan in forever.

Here's the plan:
I'm going to be a workaholic this summer. First, there is a 99.9% chance that I will be in a different department by the end of this month. I'll be making a ton more money. I'm going to change my schedule so I'm working 6:30-3:00 or 7:00-3:30. Then, get this.. I'm going back to Convergys. There is a training class that starts at 3:00 and goes till 11:00. Since I worked there for freaking 7 months, I'm almost certain they'll be able to work with me on getting to training an hour late, and possibly even knocking a week or two off of the 5 weeks of class and 2 weeks of nesting. I decided to go back for a couple of reasons, but the main reason is tuition reimbursement. Which leads me to the other part of my plan.

I registered for two online classes at UVSC: Sociology 1010 and Intro to Theater. The Sociology class is what I need to start working on my Sociology:R&A major, because I HAVE to start it this summer, but just physically can't take the in-class class at BYU. Plus, it's not offered online or through Independent Study with BYU... So, hence the UVSC thing. The Intro To Theater class fulfills one of the GE requirements I haven't done yet, AND it sounds really easy and fun. Most of it will be reading "exceptional" plays and going to performances. I love theater, I love plays, I love reading, and I don't mind typing up brief summaries/reviews. Sweet! It's going to still be pretty expensive to do just those two classes, which is what brought me back to thinking about Convergys. Tuition reimbursement really is seriously awesome.

So, I'll be working my BUTT off for about 5-6 weeks, going from about 7 AM till 11 PM. Yes, that kind of sucks, but after 3:30, my day is just sitting around listening to a whole lot of stuff I already know, and getting paid pretty good money for it. After training is over, I'll work part-time in the afternoons, still working full time at Dentrix, cuz I love that place and the insurance rocks.

When fall comes, I'll have another decision to make.. Stay at Dentrix or stay at Convergys? I won't be able to do both. But that's a decision for Fall, not for summer. I'm gonna work my butt off for a month of summer, then make TONS of money, still have a total blast with making friends in my apartment at The Branbury with my cool future roomie Jaimie.

Also, I already have my schedule for Fall semester planned out. I'll be taking Soc 300, 306, RELA 211, French 201, and one other undecided class. I already have times and teachers picked out too. :) They all end by 12:00 PM! Now, to pay my overdue fees so I can get the Cashier's Office hold on my records removed so I can actually register.


Motivation and excitement totally rock. I don't know what happened, but seriously, I need more days like today.


Disneyland and Las Vegas rocked. Best vacations ever. I'll eventually probably get some pictures posted, because I mean there are only about 3,000 of them..

May = Moving out, starting a second job, going to Denver to see WICKED!



Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
