rain rain go away.

Ever since I was a little girl, I have hated [only] a few sounds.. 

Those sounds would be: running water, the toilet flushing, the water from the shower hitting the tub, and of course the sound of rain hitting the roof! 

Notice it is all water-related? It is because the first time I heard with my cochlear implant outside of the testing room at NYU's cochlear implant center [it was located back in 1995  at the Bellevue Hospital] when I was 5... It was at the bathroom as I needed to go. went to the bathroom. I had to go to the bathroom and my mom made sure I washed my hands. I have hated those sounds ever since! Even today, when I go to the bathroom, I make sure I turn off my implant. It's weird I know, but it is the only way I can cope .. If I don't turn it on, the sound itself is practically unbearable. 

As for the sound of rain, it's just annoying to hear drip, drip, drip.. clack, clack, clack [my interpretation of how rain sounds to me]. I just try to avoid hearing it much as possible, and it makes sense why my implant tends to be off during rainy days haha. I know I should embrace the sound of rain, but I don't think that'll ever happen, unless of course, i happen to be driving, being with other hearing people or whatever.. it'll be on.

On another note, waking up at 6:30am, has been EPIC FAIL. I don't know how i'm going to wake up next week.. Let's just hope I can do it!! aaah.

Just a rainy day here in CT

Hi all! It is just blah outside today. Third day of the weather being like this. What have I done today? Hmm.. I obviously have not been very productive today as I have been supposedly napping and a few games of solitaire knocked me out!  

So much boredom, oh did I mention that I had to take a TB test? It's required for Camp Isola Bella for some reason (probably because of the children in presence of me).

[UPDATE to the last post]: 

I have to mention that the MAPpings so far has been alright, but I suppose it'll.... take time to adjust to? I don't like this... the whole adjusting thing. 

[UPDATE to the first post: jobs]

I finally decided to definitely work at Camp Isola Bella, because it's more productive that what I did today (obviously) and it'll give me something to do (other than making moolah, haha). 

This Ice Cream Parlor job is also quite unreliable- meaning they tend to cancel work due to the rain. The reason for this is because it's adjunct to a mini golf course, and customers won't want to come in and get ice cream due to the weather. A few might, but the owners won't keep me on shift alone because 1) i'm new 2) i wouldn't know what to do 3) i cant hear the damn telephone 4) ...

First Night: Sunday night [31 May], 

canceled Friday [5 June] due to rain, 

Second Night: Saturday night [6 June] from seven  to close, 

I canceled Monday for NYU [8 June]

canceled Tuesday [9 June] due to rain!!

I wonder what Sunday [14 June] will bring me :) hopefully not rain, but rather moneyy.

Hmm.. I don't know what to say, but I think I'm going to go workout at Big Sky despite the weather.

Toodles!

Peace & <3>
