Comeback #5

Hopefully it does better than Mambo #5....we'll see.

And so, hello again my dear friends. It's Kitty...i'm sure you didn't forget. How could you? I'm the one who laughs loud, cries hard and is named after an animal...

Okay, so I stumbled upon this blog again when I was extremely bored at work one day. You see my boss usually works at the downtown office on mondays and me at the school, so we correspond with each other over the phone. well, she decided not to come into work that day and didn't tell me. so i'm sitting there at work trying to get stuff done, thinking she's in meetings or whatnot....eventually, there's only so much you can do. So i was browsing the good ol' internet, started reading Debbie Reese's blog on Native American Literature when I noticed she uses blogger.com and viola.


As of right now, I am finishing up the year at DePaul. Hopefully I will be graduating next year and then moving on to Northwestern for a Masters Degree in Education....i have all this education so far but I don't feel smart. I can say that I've been getting better at bullshitting papers though. But maybe I'm not bullshitting them, maybe i'm actually writing them...its just a lot easier (Crystal may have to be the judge of this one though). See, DePaul is a very writing-oriented school. Every class involves writing papers. In fact, this year all of my professors do not believe in tests...and so, we write. But in one of my classes we had the option of making a documentary instead and so that is what I am doing. If anyone has any good stories about how the internet makes you feel anonymous and so you do things you wouldn't normally do, give me a call.

I've been working with CPS for the past year and a half...begging for a raise. I am finally seeing all the reasons why my education was crap...its because no one works....ever. oh except for the interns who work their asses off and get paid crap for what they do- which is hold up CPS. (sorry, i am just feeling unappreciated as of now.)
My other research assistant job with NSF is still the same. Racking up experience for grad school and possibly phD....ooh.


You know what tastes really good? Cake frosting made with cream cheese from Aldi. Yeah, I know this because I just ate a spoonful of it. Gross? maybe. Delicious? yes.

Okay, well back to writing papers, which sucks because everyone else is on break already. Hell, even Dani has a 4-day weekend....
