Mood: Lovin next week!! YAY!!
Listening to: Elimidate on TV and Steve talkin about his character on a game

Hey ya'll! Man, it's been awhile since I've been able to log into blogigo! I've tired every day and finally realized what was wrong with my computer. I had to restore my computer. Ugh! Anyway - not too much has been going on since Monday. I guess I can update ya'll the best that I can remember. Ready? Ready. WAIT - I first wanna say that I can't wait for sissa to update her blog. I've missed her!!

Ok - so on Monday, Memorial Day, Steve and I just spent the day together. We were gonna go do this and do that. We were gonna go to the drive in movies, we were gonna go get ice cream, we were gonna blah blah blah, but we stayed home. I guess I needed to rest. I had to work on my last speech. So, I spent the evening working on that. Talked to momma throughout the day. Tuesday was boring too! Mahahah! I worked on my speech all day. Just kinda hung out here at the house. Steve and I cleaned a little. That was basically it.

Wednesday, today, was crazy! Sheesh! I got up this morning and got ready. I had to go to my professor's office to get my visual aid for my speech. Then, I went to the computer lab and printed off the forms I needed for my speech. After that, it was off to lunch! I ate me a hot dog and some chips. I had Dr. Pepper to drink, if you're wondering. I gave my speech second today. It was disasterous for me, but Im very critical. Everyone else said I was entertaining and did a great job. I've yet to watch the DVD. I might let momma watch this DVD so she can see me in action. Who knows - I might change my mind! Mahah! I've not even let Steve see them. After public speaking, I went to the Shake Shoppe with my friend Lori and we had an ice cream. It was a bagillion degrees here today. Then it was off to class at 4pm. That class is very laid back so it wasn't rough. At 7pm I had my VERY LAST POLITICAL SCIENCE CLASS!! YAY! I just go next Wednesday and take the final..thats it! Im OH so happy. No more 10 hour school days on Wednesdays for me! *cheer* We got outta class at 8:30pm! Can ya'll believe that?! So, I was home early tonight. Couldn't have asked for a better evening.

Since then, I've just kinda vegged. Not really done anything. Tuesday was a big day for my momma and I couldn't be more proud of her. Changes are always scary because we all fear the unknown. It's human nature. The only way you know if it's going to work or fail is to try it one way and see. There's always an option B. Never limit yourself to just one option in life, guys. ALWAYS look for that option B. That's what I've been doing since January and life has been MUCH simpler.

Tomorrow is a busy day for me! I've gotta be at the school around 11am. Going to tutor/help one of my friends with her final. Then, at 1:30pm I have a meeting to give a presentation on TRIBE's next event. After that, I've got to leave and get home. I'm taking Steve and Otis to the vet. Steve is going to hold Otis while I drive. I'll never try to drive a car and hold a cat again. Ever. I need a pet carrier. BAD! Gonna get one of those asap! Otis' appointment is at 3pm. He's getting his shots. Then, I'm coming home and going through my closet until momma calls me. TRIBE members are having a yard sale, so I gotta go through some of my clothes. Momma is going to give me some of her old stuff that she doesnt want. Tim said he would give me some stuff too! Yay! So sweet of them. I gotta go to Wal*Mart and get those lil round stickers to price the things. The good thing is, I don't have to sit there all day friday with the stuff. Couple of the girls are going to!

Friday, hopefully, Im going to go to a friends house and go swimming! Where she's living has an inground pool. Im gonna lay out in the sun and go swimming for a few hours. Get me some sun! I love it! I'll be hanging out with momma this weekend for the most part. Sunday I have to study for my finals on Monday. I have one in public speaking and one in group dynamics 2. Tuesday evening is the leadership award ceremony. Wednesday I have 2 finals: Behavior Management 2 and Political Science. Thursday there's a TRIBE meeting. Friday night is graduation!! I get an entire week off, then it's back to the grind stone!

This summer I'm taking an art class. Can ya'll believe it?! It's called Introduction to Ceramics! Im gonna make stuff! I'm taking 2 communication classes. In the fall I start my foriegn language. Im taking sign language. I think it's more important than spanish, french, or german. After your third sign language class, you get state certified! That's just another certification! I'm First Aid/CPR [Adult and Infant] certified, Chemical Dependency Counselor Assistant [state certified], Social Worker Assistant [state certified], Associate Degree in Applied Science [2 year degree] - and that's just 1/2 of my schooling! Yes, I'm bragging. Yes, I sound self-centered. I've earned it, dangit! lol!

Well, it's getting late so I am gonna head to bed. I might visit ya'll and leave some luvins, if I can stay awake. If not, I'll leave you some luvins by Friday.
