Summer Prospects

6/7/2013

So, I've been out of school for about a month. I spent my first week of freedom in South Carolina with friends. This much-needed vacation was the perfect end to my freshman year. It's made me eager to get back on Marquette's campus and be on my own.

For now, I'm stuck at home working. Which I guess is okay. I really shouldn't be complaining that much. It's just so different than college. I think I'm having an extra difficult time because I have a new job. Instead of spending a sixth summer at the Pie Co, I am now a waitress at Scuttlebutt's. Although I've only been there for about three weeks, I've learned a lot about people. Those who tip 10% and and those who tip 20%. Those who are crabby and those who are understanding. I have so much more respect for waitresses now than ever before. I will never undertip a waitress again because I know the pressure they're being put under.

I didn't write this post just to tell you I'm in the waitressing business. I'm hoping that's only temporary. I also am excited to share with you that I stopped by the Lake Geneva Regional News yesterday to inquire about internship opportunities. I only chatted with the EIC, John Halverson, for a few brief moments, but I'm very excited about the possibility of spending my free time working there. Well, I don't think I'll have an office or anything. He made it sound like more of a freelance position. A sort of "you write it and if it's good, we'll publish it" sort of deal. But we'll see. I'm already dreaming up what stories I can bring to the table....
