Closer to home.

Ugh. I actually have news to report and most of it isn't exactly good news. My proficiency didn't go as planned. I didn't have my SOSH card (which we rarely use because it is for people who can't see the big E on the chart.) I was so flustered, but I borrowed one from Cathleen right at the beginning of the proficiency. It shook me up so bad that I never fully recovered. I passed, although I still don't know what my grade was. It should have been an easy A for me, instead I was shaking like a leaf the whole exam and struggled to give my instructions in Spanish because I couldn't calm my nerves. Awful experience. And worse because I know I am capable of doing everything correctly.

The other fun news is that our housing people are jerking us around again. They want to make us pay for the unused rooms in our apartments unless we want to move everything we own down two floors into another apartment. It wouldn't have been a big deal had they told us this when we moved in, but we were told that we could pay $100 a month to keep our stuff here when we were gone. Then we were told last week that we would have to pay the full $500 a month while we were gone. Now it is up to $1000/month while we are gone if we chose not to move all of our things into an apartment with everyone else who lives in our building. This is really just because they are going to let high schoolers live in our apartment while they are at NASA camp. I probably would have moved my things without complaint had we been given notice, but we are about to enter finals week and I don't have time to deal with all of this. I am leaving here on May 28th, my last final is on May 27th. Had she given us some notice I would have stayed longer to move after finals. It pissed Cathleen and I off enough that we are going to move out of the student housing. I'm sick of surprise roommates, not getting my mail when it arrives and getting jerked around.
