I don’t have a lot of time to write, but yesterday went fine. This place where I’m working is like the print shop I worked at last summer, but it’s so much nicer and cleaner.

I am mostly been looking in Orlando, and I’ve applied to 6 jobs so far. I’ve only gotten to mail one resume… It wasn’t for a job I particularly think is “perfect”, but I just…
