Amy's Ramblings

I finally decided between the 2 offers I received. Starting on February 4th, I will be working as an SLP at a nursing home in Malden! Only 6 miles from my apartment! And right near Mike's Roast Beef. The past few days have been the most exciting and stressful few days in a long time. I even made a chart with the 2 places and all the different benefits and perks. I tried my hand at negotiatons, and I think I did a good job. Managed to get a signing bonus and loan repayment. Stay in school, kids!

1. I can't believe I'm actually finished with school forever. Got my diploma from Emerson, its so much bigger than my UMass one (shocker there). I hate to get all pat myself on the back-ish, but I'm the first person from either side of my family to get a Masters. I'm really proud, but mostly I'm thrilled at how much it means to my parents. I guess all those weekends spent helping me build replicas of the Colosseum out of clay and water small shrubs with hydrochloric acid finally paid off for them.

2. I either need to hire an agent or take my resume off Monster.com. 13 calls within 24 hours! I've got 2 interviews next week!

3. Patriots game tomorrow! Anyone that wants to come over and watch with Jesse and I, feel free. The game starts at 8, maybe we could order some food beforehand? Comment if you're interested.

Anyone feel like doing Dim Sum tomorrow around noon? 

So Erin and I have been tossing around the idea of a Halloween costume party. Would anyone actually dress up? Anyone have any ideas for themes? I was thinking dress as your favorite dead musician, but that seems really overdone and Amy Winehouse isn't dead yet, at least she wasn't when I checked 15 minutes ago. Suggestions and feedback would be appreciated! 

Jesus Christ, I'm 25 now.

Anyways, Who wants scorpion bowls and karaoke tomorrow night? We can go to Tiger Lily's near Northeastern at 7 for dinner and drinking, then head over to Do Rei Mi for some singing fun, then maybe some Survivor action on the DVR. I don't know how everyone wants to arrange rides, if we should meet at our place around 6:30 and organize from there or if we should meet there. Anyone who wants to come is more than welcome.

IS DONE!  I'M DONE WITH SCHOOL!

(Technically not 100% true, but essentially I am DONE!)  YAAAAAY!

Comps were a bitch, but 8 hours and 24 pages later, it's all done.
