Hey! Now that reading break is almost over, it's time to get back to the books. And blogging.
I'm currently working on a paper for my World Religions class. It's tricky. It's one of those papers where you can write about almost ANYTHING as long as it has a smidgen of something to do with something mildly religious, such as pork. You're beginning to see my dilemma. I have no idea what to write about. While I think I have decided on a topic, that may change in the next 13 minutes. My little sheltered life hasn't really motivated me to challenge the status quo, question my religion or beliefs, so I haven't got much ammo to write with. I think I need to read a book. A good one. A thinking one. I need to enrich myself. Any suggestions? Aunty Ruby, I know you read, and you must have some great ideas!!

In other news, I really like serving (waitressing). There's just something that feels good about walking out with over $100 in cash. Everyday is not awesome, but the good outweighs the bad. The bad: on Tuesday, I had a table that whined about every single thing I brought out: the milk shake wasn't shake-y enough, the chicken fingers weren't hot enough, the drink wasn't flavorful enough, blah blah BLAH....anyway I tried to be accomodating, and tried to be nice, and run across the restaurant 30,000 times to get them what they want...their bill came to $172.62.
They tipped me $2.38 cents. Grrr.
The good: On the holiday Monday, I made approximately $37 an hour! Cool beans. Why am I in nursing school??
