I began the break by going on a floor trip to the Great Sand Dunes. We had a good group going and it was pretty fun. I hiked mountains and the sands and we visited a place called Creststone which was one large parcel of land split up amongst anyone with a religion they wanted to represent, so it's thought of as a zone of spiritual energy. We stayed in park ranger housing; from a window i could see both mountains and the dunes depending on the angle I looked from.
I got back to the dorms Tuesday and have been enjoying the quiet despite my hoped for plans of another experience with drugs. The break has gone by so quickly, I'm dreading the beginning of classes again, especially since I'll have an additional class starting. So I've just been eating and watching movies. I took my car in for a recall deal, reformatted my computer, and I'll write postcards and do homework.
I did hear back about the interview I did for an internship. Forty people applied for five positions; I'm not one of them. The other four internships I put my application in for never really took off the ground. It's interesting, talking about it with my parents, they were so assured I'd get one of them as if I were overqualified educationally. I'm just another student, perhaps one that doesn't know how to interview over the phone, and there are a lot of people out there. It really puts things in perspective; I'm not that special. So I will be looking at newly posted internships tomorrow and hopefully I'll get one before summer.
