Listening to: my 3rd period talking/working
Feeling: tired
SERIOUSLY. So many things had not happened yet.
1. Somehow, I passed student teaching and graduated. I spent the summer lazing about and trying to find a job.
2. I found one. I teach Spanish I and III at Ware Shoals High School, and I love it. Most of the time. When it isn't making me tired, which it often is.
3. I have a cute apartment, which is often messy thanks to the addition of my beautiful little kitten, Kiley. She is probably terrorizing some furniture as we speak. Silly kitty. At least she's litterbox trained and actually likes me, unless I'm punishing her for doing something she knows she's not supposed to do. She gets mad and runs away from me for a few minutes but she always comes back. It's nice to have a cat that walks towards you and not away from you when you come up to it. |

This thing is incredible. So many things had not happened yet.
1. I went to Mexico. It was the most amazing time of my life.
2. I dated a guy named Wayne. He broke my heart. It took a long time to hear.
3. 2007 sucked. End of story.
4. I'm student teaching at Greenwood High School. I teach Spanish I and II.
5. I graduate in May. I'm looking for an apartment with Chris and Kayleigh to move into after that.
6. I turn 22 on TUESDAY.
7. Life is generally good. |

if i could save time in a bottle |

Listening to: Jim Croce - Time In A Bottle
I was so lame a year ago. I'm just saying. I know, it's weird for me to writing in here so soon again, but I figured I should. I haven't kept up with this like I should.
Basically, I have been inside a little shell this whole semester. Chris and Kayleigh's relationship was picking up so well, I didn't want to intrude on it. I was never honest about it, which kind of hurt Kayleigh's feelings. I understand that, but I felt like if I had been honest, that would have upset her, too. So I guess I just chose the easier option.
So, through January and February, I mostly kept to myself, sitting in my room, visiting the nurses for our weekly TV shows, hanging out with LKB, and mostly avoiding other people. I didn't like myself. I don't know why that was. But for a while there, I didn't like myself. My grades slipped because I spent a lot of time sleeping. I missed a few classes. I've spent the month of March picking up that slack. I regret it more than I can explain, but I'm working as hard as possible.
But now, it's April. March was good. It contained my birthday and a few pleasant surprises, plus the first day of spring. It's been warm enough to wear shorts and flipflops, and that makes me really happy. I like spring. My nose gets all stuffy and I get drainage but I like spring.
I just can't believe that this time last year, I was looking forward to a chorus trip and finishing up my senior year of high school. Now, I'm a freshman in college and starting over. I guess that's what I did when I came to college. I started over, and I realized I didn't do it quite right, and now I'm fixing it.
I said this a long time ago in another journal I keep, that I pay more attention to. I keep my private thoughts there;
"Someone tells you that they think you're the strongest person they know. But are you? Maybe you are. You've done things you aren't proud of. You don't like yourself so much at the moment. You feel alone. Defeated. Useless. But then one day you decide to pay attention to the Biology lecture on mitosis and you realize if you can pay attention to that, you can fix the broken things in your life. Ignore temptations. Pray. Study. One day at a time, one piece at time, you can glue your broken and shattered life back together. It's time to start fixing things."
I wrote that entry nearly a little over a month ago. And I am well on that path. And it is wonderful. |

Wow, it's been awhile.
Nothing particularly interesting or newsworthy going on. Just going to school and all that jazzoidness.
I like coming home for the weekend. I get to see my family and I sometimes have opportunities to see the people I went to high school with.
I have a cold. It's not such a good time.

Listening to: nun's choruses from the sound of music
Just got back from a weekend at home. It was good, got a lot of much needed rest, saw Nikki, which I needed to do.
We were supposed to have an ice storm. Well, that turned out to be a bunch of crap, didn't it? What a joke.
So I've gotten really obsessed with this nun music because it's sooooo pretty.
I haven't been spending a lot of time out lately. I kind of withdraw in the winter and stay put. Also because Chris and Kayleigh seem to care more about spending time with each other than they do with anyone else. I still go see the Nurses and LKB a lot, though. And I hang out with Chris & Kayleigh sometimes when we all feel like it.
It's been a good semester so far overall, though. So it's cool. |

Listening to: Kelly Clarkson - Addicted
So, since this entry I have done a few things.
1. Was able to get on the internet in Winston-Salem. I enjoyed a relatively drama-free trip up there. Purchased many movies on a $50 gift card from my uncle. I love my mommy because she let me pick my own jeans that hopefully look better on me. And, I'm not fat enough for big and tall which makes me feel REALLY good about myself. They had a size 56, I was freaking out.
2. Worked a lot. Particularly at 6:30 in the morning. And I hated it. Plus, Kim and I got the Ms. Karen hate ball rolling.
3. Had New Year's Eve at Robbie's house with Mattin, Justin, Georgia, Chris, and Robbie. Cameos by Kelsey and Alana. It was good times, plus I got to improve my DDR skills.
4. Went back to Lander and cleaned my room for Steven, who ended up not moving in. He and JR moved into a bigger room in Coleman. Who moves TO Coleman. Coleman is not a place you go to, it's a place you end up.
5. I made the Honor Roll. W00t.
Okay, enough for now. |
