Muahahaha (Evil Laugh)
Last week I found out that I will officially become an NAU First Year Experience peer mentor. This means I will have ultimate power over the lives of approximately 40 new NAU freshmen... unless they drop the class. Now I get to decide what kind of leader I will be. Will I be everyone's best friend and get involved in class drama? Will I be strict but fair with a quiet demeanor? Maybe I could even be hated at first, then loved as they realize that everything was for their own good. I've only seen that one work in the movies, but it might be worth a shot!In any case I get paid to talk about how the library works, and how drinking is bad. Not a bad job!

I overheard the following conversation before my publications design class in the Communications building.
Girl: Did you get into ADV 111?
About 20 other people: No! I need that class to graduate too!
Guy: I'm on the waiting list.
About 20 other people: Me too!
If this isn't making sense for you, ADV 111 was the class where Steve took the last open seat. Apparently he beat out a bunch of disgruntled advertising majors for that seat, and I wouldn't want to be the one to tell them his story! He didn't quite have all the pre-requisites he needed, so the chances of him getting an override ahead of all the other majors would have been slim to none! He is a very lucky guy! Of course, if all of those people really were seniors, they would have been taking the class late. And if they're not, they'll have more semesters to take it. Also, if they do have more credits than Steve, they slacked by not registering on time. Now I'm never saying anything again until the class is completed or I might jinx the whole thing. Everything is going well for me, but not nearly as exciting. I finally feel a tiny bit caught up in my classes, so hopefully that feeling will continue through the next few weeks until finals! I only have one final exam so I'm hoping to do some of our moving during that last week (mostly little stuff). Then I have a week off before I start my internship. Life is good.
Yay!
I had something elaborate written, but I think I'll keep it simple:I am so happy Steve got his class!!
