What a great way to start my Junior year in college! I went for a job interview at a coffeehouse on campus, called Port City Java, this morning at 10:00 AM and BAM! I got the job. I start training tomorrow morning at 9 AM! I'm very excited to take on the adventure that comes with being a Barista. I have experience making drinks from my time at Sonic, but PCJ has a lot of different drinks and sandwiches that I'll have to learn. I'm sure I can do it, it will just take some time!

In other news, school starts on Wednesday! Where did the time go!?

I posted a little while back reflecting on the first part of my ten week summer class. I was able to improve my test grades from the first exam and ended up making a B in the class! And to end my summer, the class successfully transferred back to State and officially shows up on my transcript! Yay.

Only another week of summer until it's back to the grind!
