| Washington DC this past weekend was very cool and not what I expected at all. I won't talk about the touristy part of it...except for the fact that it rained hardcore on the one day we had to see the sights and so we didn't end up seeing the White House nor the Lincoln Memorial. 
Whatever. Mom and I are planning on going to DC during cherry blossom season so it's okay.
We went to a great hookah place: Tangier. Ask them to mix a special blend for you- it is delicious.

| Yes. That is right.
I, Emily, am now employed by Yeshiva's Stern College for Women. I will be one of the lab techs that maintain the science labs and set things up for lab classes (along with cleaning up after them). I will be learning a lot from this experience.
Now what I hate is that I have no choice about whether or not I want to be in a union. *sigh* I have to pay them 2% of every paycheck. Damn you guys, I already have free insurance and dental coverage. xp
Now mom and I can both relax about money. She can go get her associate's degree (thank goodness for financial aid) for being a medical office assistant. I can pay the mortgage and the utilities and cable and wooo.
I feel very grown up that I can take care of my mom this way. In the next 2 months I'll be taking the GRE and GRE Biology tests. *crosses fingers* Then in September 2010 I will start my Master's in forensic science.
I am very nervous about performing well at my job...but I know I can do it!

| To my mysterious friend:
You are right, I do not know who you are...though I might have a guess or two. Thank you for what you wrote- and no it was not awkward at all. I have experienced my period of denial, my period of self loathing, my period of self pity, then of course apathy in the last few years. But for the last year or so I have made peace with many things and determined it not beneficial to myself to keep dwelling on what happened in the past. All of my experiences made me strong and in a demented sort of way, I am glad I went through all I did to become the person I am today. I take strength from your experiences and your encouragement and will keep dreaming about a love someday in the future.
I hope we can be friends in real life one day- lucky coincidences do happen!
With much thanks,
Emily

| We've all ordered out gowns...our commencement speaker is confirmed to be Sarah Lawrence Alum Rahm Emanuel aka our country's Chief of Staff.
Instead of relaxing this last month before our work is due (seniors have to hand in stuff way earlier!), I feel like I'm crashing into a slump and everything is just so overwhelming.
Cancun was great...I have like 5 albums up on facebook. I miss the weather, the water, the food, ....everything!
Today I submitted resumes to multiple positions (clerical and or lab research technicians) at Albert Einstein Medical College/Yeshiva University, Columbia, Boston's Children's Hospital. I am going to be working on cover letters for my applications to jobs at casting agencies and publishing houses. Hopefully something will work out.
Our school just added a new exchange program to our array of abroad/exchange programs. This one is an exchange at CalArt, which is really really cool. Too bad it came a little late for me. I might've gone for an MFA Writing program exchange thing.

| Students for Students Scholarship Fund Auction was wonderful.
Much more attendance than last year and I think at the last count we made about $6000.
