[005] Oh. Yeah. This thing.

While it was interesting to meet so many of you who required assistance with taxes, I think I'm glad to say I'm thankful tax season is over. The extra work was good experience and a little extra income, but very draining.

Gaki is doing well. He adjusted quickly to training and doesn't seem to mind me not being around all the time, thankfully. He still baffles me with his ability to not be where I thought he was and tendency to get into everything. I almost shut him in the fridge the other day because he crawled in while I was getting something off a higher shelf. He's gotten pretty big and lost a little fluff, since the vet says he's almost a year now.

I'm also glad for the break between class terms. I think I understand a little more why people try to avoid working while getting their Masters. Not that I can't handle it, but...finals were intense. I still received top marks, but I sometimes wished I'd had more study time. I can only imagine it would have been even more daunting were I still at Harvard. Though I wouldn't have to work then, but I'd still have to live with Father... But anyway, I have a couple weeks to regroup before summer term, so I plan to enjoy them! And sleep.

[002] First Week...

...I will admit I completely forgot about this journal thing this week. But it's been a very hectic week, so I don't feel too silly about it.

I have finally gotten most of my stuff situated in my new apartment. It took me awhile to find something sufficient to stand on to finish painting the walls near the ceiling and hang some of my decorations. I really like my place. All that's left to unpack are my books and a little bit more clothing. The books will take forever for me to alphabetize and put away, so they can be saved for tomorrow's projects or I'd spend all night on them and fall asleep on a stack. ...Also, I seem to be missing some kitchen utensils. I have a feeling this is a result of letting my little sister help me pack. Either she left them out in hopes that I couldn't live without them and would have to return home immediately, or she thought it would be funny to prank me. I'll probably find them wrapped in a sweater. ...Hopefully not the hard way, since at least three of them are very, very sharp, hehe. [Little brat, but I love her still.]

Work has been very interesting! It's neat getting to put into practice some of the things I learned in my courses. Though...that one spreadsheet we use... It needs to be fixed. ...I'll probably start working on another version tomorrow so I can submit it on Monday to see if it works more efficiently. I like my desk a lot. It's just large enough to have the space to keep things organized but small enough that it doesn't dwarf me behind it. :)

I hope everybody enjoyed the cookies on Monday! I...think they were well-received. Did you like them? There were only a few left over at the end of the day, so... I hope you found them on your desk, Sasori, since I said I'd bring whatever was not eaten to you. :) (Also...is it okay for me to call you all by your given names, or would you prefer Mr./Ms./Mrs./Miss and your surnames? ...There seems to be an even split between what people on the first floor prefer in that respect, and it is generally polite business practice to use a person's surname, so I'm curious.) I hope the people who requested kinds of cookies liked their boxes, too. :)

Sorry for writing so much, but it's been an exciting week!
