.166 x yay stuff!
24/5/08 13:25First of all, a few new pictures uploaded.

I also changed the layout of my scrapbook. I'm glad there's a selection for scrapbook layouts, even if it isn't that broad.
When I was dressing for work this morning, I looked up at the monitor for the security cameras and saw a deer crossing the hill of the driveway and a fox chilling at the top of the driveway, watching it I guess. I didn't make it outside to get pictures, which made me sad, but I thought it was awesome.
One of my teachers posted my final grade early, and it's an A. Unless something got screwed up in psych (it's hard to tell since they never actually gave us our grades, only the means to calculate them ourselves), that means that 7 credits of my 16 are for sure As. That's good. Now just waiting on the others... they're due to be posted on Tuesday, and I doubt anyone else posts early, or at least not significantly early.
I'm excited, though =D
Oh, and it's almost time for my six month review at work. The first time I worked at Starbucks I got a sixteen cent an hour raise at my six month review. I don't know what I'll get this time. I don't know if they'll take into account the raise I got the first time since when I was rehired it was at the base rate for new baristas. I do expect a good review though; George seems to really appreciate having me work there. He said he'll be starting my review on Monday.
I wonder what all the crap about raising employees to $8.80 an hour was at my old Starbucks? Clearly it never happened. A raise that substantial would be nice, though.
ETA I just checked on Testudo and all but one of my grades in my other classes posted, and they're all As. Even in the class I hated with the depth of my soul! The only one that hasn't posted is my favorite class from this semester, which I'm pretty sure I can expect an A in. I knew I wanted to make a 4.0 at least once but I didn't genuinely expect to do it this semester. At the very least I made the dean's list!
Yay!
