Sorry for the lack of update. I have been very busy. This past weekend I went to supper with some friends and on our way there I ran into Joseph. It is so crazy when you run into someone you know in Chicago. It is something you never expect so when it happens it is fantastic. After dinner I went to 'Paranormal' with Joseph and two of his friends. I am a fan of scary movies, usually. I think the movies with demons and such scare me the most, so this one was not my cup of tea. Saturday was a lazy day. Kate and I watched lots of Friends and then we went to a midnight comedy club show with a couple friends. Sunday was another day of relaxation. I did, however, go to the zoo with Joe and one of his friends. It was my first time going to a zoo and it was amazing. I loved seeing the lions and tigers. They had an exhibit of spiders but there was no glass or net or anything blocking them from coming out. SCARY! Apparently people spray their webs and that makes them want to stay put. On Monday CS students had a holiday--Columbus Day--but I went into work for a couple hours. It felt nice to get some things accomplished. Today was a very productive day as well. The interns and I finished file reviews and now we need to just complete each file. I am still loving working there and feel as if I am learning so much. All the people I work with are so supportive. I don't think I could have been placed at a better site.

I am currently in the middle of so many little/huge projects. I am working on my Thailand information and I just finished writing my thank you letters. I am also slowly working on applying to grad school. I thought that I wanted to go to grad school, now I am not so sure. I really enjoy working and I was not expecting that. I thought it would be a good idea to continue with school as long as I am in the school-mode, but I feel as if being in Chicago has taken me out of the school-mode. I am not sure what I really want to do yet. My parents are coming out here this weekend, so I will talk to them about it and see what they think. If I don't go to grad school I am not completely sure what I will do--possibly move to Chicago and work or travel or work at my jobs in Cloquet for a bit more... who knows. An intern told me today about a scholarship program where students go overseas and take language classes. I think that would be an amazing experience. I am looking into it and will let you know what I find. :)

Well, back to homework I suppose.
