Waiting For School So I Can Relax

Confession: I can not wait to go back to college so that I can relax for once.

....That doesn't seem quite right. Shouldn't summer be the time where you relax, so you can gear up and work hard during school?

But alas. Summer has not been. As the hardworking child I am, I worked between 45 and 55 hours a week this summer. I am dead tired and ready to go back to school just so I can take a break!

But it's been a good summer. Working at the small restaurant in a local golf course has made me enough to pay for school (thanks to BYU and a scholarship) and I've had a lot of interesting encounters with customer and coworkers. Just the other day I had one guy tell me that I had made him the worst eggs of his life while another told me I made him the best breakfast he'd had in a long time.

But now I'm in the home stretch, with just two weeks left until I move back to Utah and start school again! Who knew a summer of hard work could make you so ready for a semester full of hard classes!
