Patience is NOT my Middle Name

I handed in the 5 page plus 5 page personal reflection answers from page 4 of questions that need to be answered on seperate sheets of paper. When I went to go hand in my application package (as it became), the sasktachewan camp director was really excited and had also told a couple of camps about me already. I have realised that in some social circles, having the last name Pullman really does help. My dad is a fairly well known man in various different aspects and sometimes saying that I am Ellery Pullman's daughter will get me further along for a reason that by not mentioning who my dad is. It has been like that with this camp application thing. The camping director had no clue who i was until he asked me my last name and then it was like he started paying attention to what I had to say. He was like "Your dad and i are good friends and I've heard great things about you." and then about the camps he had spoken to, he said peoplem were excited because they knew who I was. Knew who i was or just heard of me? Many people who work at camps came to Briercrest Bible College and had my father as a psych teacher. The prime examples that my father uses when teaching are often about my sister's and I. I know this because i took 2 classes with him and often turned 10 shades of red when he started telling yet another story. Anyways, the camp stuff is all in and Wayne said he hoped to let me know within the next 2-3 weeks as to where I could be used best. I just don't do well with the waiting aspect of things!
I'm also sick of being sick. I haven't been able to do anything really productive in the last couple of days. I don't even have the energy to work on my sociology....i still have 2 papers to write for it and its all due on april 7. and then i have a final exam to write as well. I think i need to switch gears in the next couple of days!
I'm crawling back into bed or at least to my sofa. Have a good weekend people!
