Yesterday was one of my busiest days at work. My co-worker, Sara, and I had 71 applications to process and, from data on those apps and all the mail, we ended up with 22 students to process for acceptance. We entered all the data, updated all their statuses, and prepared their acceptance packages. I determined very early in the morning that, at a certain point, I would stop and get coffee...the only question mark was how many apps I wanted to complete before I took my break....I reward myself with weird things throughout the day to keep motivated. I think when you have a very task-oriented job you should do that. Sometimes, when the day ahead of me looks overwhelming, I am tempted to work all the way through...but, a break is good for the sanity.
I laughed when we walked over to Sacred Grounds for our coffee break because there was a new poster up and it was perfect for us on that day!
And.....I'd like my Caramel Macchiato stirred, thank you!
