Forgot My Blog Post For Last Week

Last weekend was fairly busy. I performed at Coffeehouse on Friday night. I think my guitar sounded off, not loud enough and/or not perfectly in tune, but I've been told it sounded good and I'm not too worried about it. Saturday was a long day. I woke up early (for a Saturday) and went to the Farmers' Markets before practice because my mom, who normally shops for us, was at a baby shower. Then I went to a lovely rowing practice. The weather is so fantastic right now, perfectly sunny and wind-less and rain-less. I don't want the triple-digit days to come. After practice my mom, sister, and I went to the Old Settler's Music Festival to hear some good old bluegrass music, along with two of our favorite artists: Sarah Jarosz and Bob Schneider. The concerts were great, although we got too cold and tired to stay for Iron & Wine's concert at the end of the day.

On Sunday, I had lifeguard training at Lifetime Fitness, where I am hoping to work this summer. I worked there last summer and I have an official interview tomorrow. I'm pretty nervous because if I don't get this job, I have no idea what I am going to do for money this summer and next year at college. The aquatics supervisor introduced me as "Katie, who will be lifeguarding with us this summer" on Sunday so I am mainly just trying not to get overconfident.

As for classwork, I'm enjoying the labs well-enough. They're kind of like logic puzzles, which I like to a certain extent but usually frustrate me too much before I finish them. The labs work much better when I work with the people around me. Between the three of us, we can usually avoid most of the common error.

I'm beginning to get excited for graduation, still astronomically nervous about leaving home but excited to be done with waking up at 6AM and spending 7 hours in the same building.
