My old RA, Mandy, told me about the Desk Assistant position. I applied
online and interviewed for the position! They called me later to say I did get the job at The Roost.
I started out working a full 20 hours a week, but after people have quit or been let go I am up to 29 on some weeks. Around
the holidays we are aloud to work up to 40 hours which is fine with me! I like to have down time, but while I work at
the desk, I get a lot of homework done! If it wasn't for work I wouldn't have studied as much, written as many
letters, or called my family as often. It is a great job- I mean, I have responsibilities, but on the average day- I
just sit there- talk to people- and do my work. And get paid for it!!! :)
When I go home for the holidays, or any time
I get a chance, I spend a lot of time with family and some time with children! I babysit a lot-
I started when I was 12, watching Johnny
and Dale. It is wonderful to have a family away from my family to go to. I love the children. If anything
were to happen to their mother, I would be honored to care for them! (They are the children of the woman who resembled Lauren
so much.)
Another family has 5 children. I have
only been with them for a few years, but I am faily close to all of them as well. There are 5 of them ranging from
1 1/2 - 8 years old.
Childcaring has helped me decide that I want
to have children!- As many as I can afford! I think that is why I am so ready to get college over with - I am ready
to get started! I have my whole life ahead of me, but... I want to start it now! My mother had me when
she was 16- i love the relationship we have. But... the time will come, when its time. Until then I will just
try to get ready for that time. :)
