It is time for bed for me. Much too late!! I had a long night in my class tonight. I guess I should explain that I am actually in college now, not just moved out. Its been great so far. So missed assignments, some crazy crunch times, some super crazy stress, but now, I am ok. A friend posted this quote on Facebook and I simply had to post this on here. This is really how I feel these days....There comes a time when u have to stand up and shout: This is me damn it! I look the way I look, think the way I think, feel the way I feel, love the way I love! Take me...or leave me. Do not try to make me feel like less of a person, just because I ...don't fit your idea of who I should be and don't try to change me to fit your mold. If I need to change, I alone will make that decision.
I had a great chat with my stepmom on the way home from class and she even helped me with my essay when I got home. Class was crazy tonight!! Two hours of grammar=blah!! I hate grammar exercises and review, but I do suppose they are necessary. ICK!! We learned we have to have an entire book read in a month and then we will be writing a paper over it. We also learned we have a different essay to start work on this week. The prewriting is due next week and then the final is due in three weeks. I actually find that reasonable and doable.I still need to get that book and my math online book. I have until the 27th to catch up on my math assignments I missed, however, I have to have the other english book well before then! I am going to call the lady in the morning about the paper I need to sign to release my scholarship money to me, and then within 3-5days of her recieving that signature, I will be able to access my money. Which means I will get all my money back for books and such. That will be wonderful!!I have so much to say, but no energy to do that tonight. More homework and stuff with baby Greer tomorrow. Now I say goodnight ya'll. This southern gal is headed to dreamland! Muah!!
My cousin Rebecca and her daughter came for a visit this past weekend. What a wonderful time we had. Jaime and I cleaned and such the night before and then on Saturday morning, my fabulous cousins arrived to see me! :) Now, they also needed to pick up a playhouse they had purchased, but had been meaning to stop in and see me. It was truly great to see them. Once they arrived Sat morning, we had lunch at the apartment, got them settled in, and hung out for a bit. Then, around 3pm, we headed over to the Discovery Center in town. Since they were closing in two hours, they let us in for free! That was truly a blessing!! After we played there and showed little Kendall all there was to do, we all decided we simply HAD to go down the big slide that connects the two floors of the center. Even us big girls LOVED that part. We then went to eat at my favorite Mexican restaurant in town and had a really awesome and yummy dinner. We decided to ride around and also to go to Walmart. We had so much fun just paroosing the premises and just goofing off. We also stopped and got some lottery tickets. None of us one, but it was still a lot of first time fun! :)After the day's adventure, we came back to settle in . We all got in our pjs, and layed down to get baby girl Kendall to sleep. Once she was asleep around 930 or so, Jaime, Rebecca, and I went in the livingroom to hang out. We did not plan it, but ended up staying up till 2am! We had so much fun! It was great to have some girl time and just hang out.The four of of us got up pretty early Sunday morning. We all hung out and took our time getting ready. We dropped Jaime off at her house, then went to Greenbrier to pick up the playhouse Rebecca bought. We got lost along the way, but still had fun. The wonderful day ended with the three of us having a yummy dinner at Cracker Barrel and then a walk around the apartment grounds. All in all it was a great time spent with family. I love them so much and miss them sooo much. I cannot wait to see them again. I do hope to see them in a month or so, if not, it looks as though it will be Christmas time again before we all get together.
of emotions, energy, thoughts, and things to do. So much is going on. Far too much to put in one posting and it all make sense. So, today I will begin posting several updates to explain everything in detail. Today, I am missing class and my interview(see other posts) due to rain! ICK!! Rain just simply gets in my way. I do plan on emailing in my essay and I also sent an email informing my teacher that I will be absent. One of my roommates, the one I have known for many years, her family's area of the county is completely flooding. Complete with the helicopter rescues and requested evacuations. Schools are shutting down and roads have been and/or are closing. This is a nasty time. I am ready for pretty fall weather, not this icky crap.So on to the next topic I go....
