Vices

So it's been a while. I found a job, thank God! At the local Kaplan Test Prep center. :) It's a good job. I don't have to clean up after messy customers, fold clothes and all of that crap. I've had jobs at banks before, and they are good part-time jobs, but I couldn't find such a job here in Bloomington. So Kaplan is good enough!! =) I register students for their classes, answer phones, stuff like that. Pretty easy stuff. Nice working environment.

Anyway, I need to learn how to start saving money. I've managed to get addicted to eBay again. I go through phases, where I am either on eBay a lot, or I abandon it altogether for a few months. Well, right now I'm on it a LOT, stocking up on Harry Potter collectibles lol... There are some HP collectibles that I bought many years ago, in 2000, that are selling for quite a bit on eBay now. I think it's a good investment! My two vices: Handbags and Harry Potter. Too many purses/handbags and I just can't seem to get enough Harry Potter stuff....

It's horrible, I know. But someday when I have my own house InshAllah, I'm going to have a room (preferably a study or library) where I will display all my Harry Potter stuff. :) I have run out of room in my apartment, so some of the stuff I'll just store until I have a house someday... hehe.

Classes begin on the 27th. I'm taking my 2nd year of Persian, 1st year of Turkish, and a class called "Prophets, Poets and Kings"... Iranian history. Should be interesting =) I still haven't heard from the CEUS department. The secretaries here are apparently very incompetent, and because of them, everything is messed up *sigh* So I haven't yet been accepted to CEUS, so I haven't yet been able to apply to SPEA, and that really puts me behind schedule. I am quite upset, but I haven't gotten to the point yet where I am fretting about it day and night. Once it hits me, I'll be a total nervous wreck, I know it. But for now I am trying not to think about it...

Anyway, I suppose that's all for now. I doubt anyone is reading this anyway =P But someday when I'm 80 and hopefully if I still know how to use a computer and this blog still exists, I shall come back and read about what my life was like many years ago....
