We got booked for a festival in Spain in March. They're paying for flights and everything. Should be pretty fun.

I want to go to Spain too.
No wait! I don't. I think I'm boycotting it because of the bull fights etc. Hmm then I should boycot France as well...

Aaanyway my week ended with something positive. I just got called, they have a temporary job for me.

I got a call this morning from a consultant company seeing my resume on career builder. They want to send my resume to SEPTA (Southeastern Pennsylvania Transit Authority) to do consultant work for them as a bridge or construction inspector. It pays $25.00/hr with 40 hr weeks, so that's quite a bit of money starting out. It's kind of a temporary job, because it's like being a contractor where you only work when there is work, but it'll be a good way to start bringing in money.

I am pretty sure I just got a job. I had a two hour interview with the URS Corporation as a Bridge Engineer. They said I should know in a week, and it seems like they want to get me as soon as possible.

Found out the Zooey Deschnel was at my old High School* and filmed her new music video there.

*It's also been used for the movies..

Clockstoppers
Not Another Teen Movie
The Craft
and a bunch of others

The TV Shows...

Quantum Leap
Beverly Hills, 90210
Felicity
American Dreams
Summerland
Monk
CSI: Crime Scene Investigation
and currently The Secret Life of the American Teenager

This might be my favorite use of it so far though

I got the jubileum edition of Colonists of Catan. A good deal, and I had some coupons to spend anyway!

I rocked my exam to begin practice Intake/Life History interviews.

I basically had to memorize all the client confidentiality, suicide assessment, dangerousness risk assessment, and basic 101s of doing an intake interview. I'm actually pretty psyched because next semester I should be starting up my internship doing actual supervised work in the field.

I'm totally psyched for counseling...research...not so much. lol, but that's what all the university's want these days.

Oddly, my job didn't really do anything like that until a few months ago, we had to go to a training for it.

Though client confidentiality should be easy. Suicide assessments are difficult.

I also think that the danger scale is odd at times, but I think only because of the criteria. (Being a greater risk if been raped/sexual abused) and the likes.
