a lot of new faces: people dropped, it seems a lot of people have had the same problems i've had. missed connections, no callbacks, who knows what.
we filled out a million pieces of paperwork and talked about the potential of our placements. everyone seemed to have trouble with the order of things, we all experienced chaos in one form or another. one guy was so frustrated that he quit because the work as too much.
when i hear things like that, i just have to laugh. knowing my own situation, i am more than ready to admit this will be a challenge, but nothing worth quitting over. i'll make it work.
