Work Worries

Today I found out what was going to happen because I was paid too much. They are going to take the money out of my next paycheck, which is fine with me. I would rather that happen then have to pay them back, but it makes no difference really. Timecards are supposed to be in on the Friday’s before the payday at noon. This is retarded because you have to estimate how many hours you will work for that Friday. If you end up not coming in on that Friday you have to subtract the hours from you next paycheck or make them up, which I no fun. My timecard didn’t make it to the payroll office last Friday so I had to run around campus trying to get my timecard turned in. This could all have been prevented if someone would have told me that I needed to turn it in. From now on I will be taking it to the payroll office that Thursday before it has to be turned in.
Well, that's enough venting about my job, but that the main excitement that happened today. Today was just a regular wake up at 7:00 and go to my classes until 12 and the go to work day.

It's Been A While

So lately I obviously haven’t been posting anything on my blog. This is because I have been busy with school and things and haven’t had much time to write. I had my first Spanish test in my 101 class last week and made a 90 on it. I was pretty excited because I was really worried about it.
I went home this weekend to watch General Conference with my parents and sister and her family. I mostly slept through most of it, but it is going to come out in the Ensign so I will be able to read it (thank goodness for the Ensigns).
Something cool happened in Spanish class this week. One of the girls in my class is also from Magnolia, which was cool and weird at the same time. Magnolia is a very small community. It has a post office two country stores and an intersection with a major highway. One of my sister friends told her that he had gone through Magnolia. He was excited to see it but when he got there he blinked and he missed it. That is an exaggeration but, needless to say it isn’t very big. But anyway, it was really cool to find out she came from the same place I did.
Also something cool that happened this week is I finally change my major officially. On the University of Alabama records I am officially known as English major. Now I just have to come with a minor. I am thinking either creative writing of geology or maybe a slight chance of journalism. I have to do some more thinking on that.
Oh yeah and today I found out that my job paid me more money that I should have gotten. So it took the pay stub to the main man and told him about it.
