End of a Busy Week

This week was a busy one for all in the Heinisch home.  Cameron had the new iLearn tests three mornings.  He couldn't prepare for them, but they made for a draining start to the day.  The good news for him was that with the new state testing schedule he will not have to take ISTEP to graduate.  After this year he will be done with weeks like this one and will only have to worry about the SATs in high school.  Cam also had several days of tennis practice this week and one golf practice match.  It was at Christiana Creek and Cam played what he thought was his best round of the season, shooting a 41.  It was exciting to hear him talk about his success with golf this far, especially last night's shot by shot reporting.  Tonight Cam and his friends met at the spring fish fry.  He held his own eating twelve pieces which was no match for Conner's sixteen.  Avery, Samuel and Conner all came home with him afterward spending the rest of the evening hanging out and having some quality time outside.

Meg's week was an equally busy one with four tennis matches including another tough one at Northwood last night.  The nice part for her was that she did not have to be at school until 9:50 on the days that the underclassmen had testing.  Friday was also a 2:30 dismissal for the fish fry which she appreciated.  Without practice she took advantage of the time to stop by Milford and drop off open house invitations to Mr. Troyer, Mr. Larson and Mrs. Sweatland.  Tonight she and Nick went to Chick-Fil-A in South Bend and then did some shopping.  They ended the night at his house watching a movie.

Cal was thrilled to be done with classes on Thursday.  This had been the most challenging semester for him since he started at Kelley.  Tax and corporate accounting have not been his favorites, although  he did enjoy his online March Madness class.  He and Hannah-Marie also broke up during the semester which added to the stress.  Their plan to remain friends, however, has worked for now leaving them both free to enjoy their summer.

Brett arrived this afternoon thrilled to be done with his classes for grad school.  He had a paper to submit this afternoon and a group evaluation which was done well before the 5 p.m. deadline.  He still has a take home text next week and a paper to turn in, but wasn't stressed about either one.  The only frustration right now has been finalizing his plans for next year.  He has a job with IU in a supervisor position.  It would not be enough to live on, however, so if he stayed in Bloomington he would have to get a part time job as well.  That would not be hard to do and he even has a few interviews set up next week.  He would like one with the city of Bloomington as it could lead to something full-time.  He would be happy staying in B-Town, but would really like the copy-write position with Eberle in Virginia.  He interviewed for that two weeks ago and should have an answer soon.  Until then he cannot sign a lease anywhere.  It has been hard waiting, but hopefully, he'll know soon.
