Apr. 15th, 2008 06:43 pmHad another day of proctoring. It's been startling since I remember middle schoolers as being much less obedient, and also much less well-dressed. I was totally jealous of this one girls sneakers-and then I remembered that I'm 26 and maybe shouldn't wear kicks with skulls on them. The class I proctored for today was rowdier than the last group, but it was that kind of smart kids goofing off kind of rowdy, instead of the kids who hate school being cranky rowdy that I think I had yesterday.
Went by target afterwards. Talked myself out of some cute flats with a candy print on them, but I'm rethinking. They were pretty cute. Found these online, though, and I think I like them better. I don't know what my sudden obsession with flats is, other than they're trendy this year and I'm optimistic about finding something that isn't sneakers. Did buy myself some books, totally on a whim.
Got a call about a job today. Unfortunately, they needed somebody right that minute, and I was proctoring. :( It was only for a week, though, so while I'm disappointed (a week's salary is still more than 0) I'm not crushed. And I'm more optimistic about finding something-when I called back the guy called my attention to a couple of other leads online-not quite what I was expecting, but it's good. He and I are kindred spirits in over-education, although he has experience to back his up.
Came home and feng shuied my room. Apparently you should put money in the back left corner of a room if you want money to come to you, so I moved all my piggy banks and crossed my fingers. What I read suggested putting a silver dollar in the corner-I might see if I still have one of those, and cash in my change instead.
