The Loan Arranger...
Mar. 27th, 2002 02:50 pmHere I sit in the Cheek Hall computer lab on the SMSU campus, having been on campus for the purpose of doing a few things. In main, I had a quick loan exit interview and got some advice on my resume from the job office. I visited my uncle, printed out some more BookCrossing labels, and now I'm thinking about driving down to the homeplace to pick up some books with which to use them.
A bit of brief situational humor: glancing over at the emergency exit door in the wall--the door with a sign that says "Attention Lab Assistants: This door is not to be opened. If it is too hot, tell the Supervisor." The door that is currently...propped open by a chair. Heh.
Hm. Looks like I'll be taking care of more business than I thought. I just got a call on my cellphone from the student loan people. It seems I'm already behind on my payments. This is the point where I go, "What?" as I thought I had six months' grace. Apparently if I've been out of school in the past, that time counts toward the grace. Oops. I suppose I should have opened those Sallie Mae envelopes; I had thought they were just junk mail/loan consolidation offers, based on what they'd been in the past--but it turned out they're apparently loan bills. Oops.
Well, add "renewing my application at an employment agency and faxing in this form" to the list of stuff to do today.
