A Long Week

Day 192, 45th Vocational Trade Day--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm so glad it's Thursday. I think it's my favorite day of the week because it means that I only have one more day until the week is over.

It seems I've picked up a nasty cold. And the only reason I'm sick is because almost everyday this week the girls have had to stand outside the dorm and wait in the freaking cold after trade. Monday we stood outside the dorm for 25 minutes. Then the next day we stood outside for 10 minutes and later that same day I stood outside Recreation for 1 HOUR waiting for someone to let me in so I could open the store with my co-worker Ryan Pierson (from Port Angeles ironically, but that's another story). Now after all this standing outside I'm sicker than a dog.

Tomorrow they are holding a graduation for a handful of students who are complete in their trade, education, and licensing. These students are given caps and gowns and are given the privilege of speaking to their fellow peers about their success stories, and they are allowed to walk down the isle like they would be in they were in highschool. No one I know is graduating, so I'm not too bummed that I have to skip it for a doctor's appointment instead.

Good thing I have the store because it makes the days go by so much faster... unless I'm sick of course. This place in my sanctuary, my safe haven.
