Honors Retreat

Posted by on August 19, 2008

I actually went on the honors retreat this year, unlike last year! This year I got to go as staff, which was a much more enjoyable way to do it. [info]kellerinablack8 was also on staff in addition to some of my other best friends. It was totally awesome! I shared a room with the honors director because it was the only room with beds, and I wanted a bed because of hurting my back on Saturday night. (For those of you who asked, it was just a candlestick, heh!) Turns out she snores, but I’m used to that at home so it didn’t really bother me! :D

There were definitely some awesome people in the incoming honors group, but there are also some who are going to be a pain in the butt. Speaking of pains in the butt, I had to voice interpret for several hours, because they didn’t realize that a few of the incoming students didn’t have sign skills up to par with the others. Additionally, one of the speakers doesn’t mind one-on-one conversations in ASL, but doesn’t feel comfortable giving lectures in it, so I did voice-to-sign AND sign-to-voice for him. But they say they’re going to pay me, so it’s not all bad.

I definitely had fun this time around but these last two weeks of summer are killing me, mostly because I spend so much time at the hospital that I can’t do stuff around the house. It’s a necessary evil though, because I’ll be working as few as 6 hours per week during the school year, and I need the money.
