Well, I've been having problems sleeping lately, and i read somewhere that writing in a journal, putting your days thoughts away, helps you get to sleep. So thats what i'm doing.
I got my books for school today, it doesnt start for almost 2 weeks, but i am really anxious. This semester is it. I feel it. I'm excited and ready. I have my doubts on my ability to keep up, and to stay interested enough to stay with the classes... but i know i can do it. I've already readthe first chapters in 3 of my books. In my business book, I even wrote out notes!! haha, I want to make sure i get ahead and stay ahead. and if i dont get anything, i can make sure i really try and focus during the lecture. I'm excited to be taking a math class again. God i loved math in highschool. its all so logical... you either know it or you dont. Tomorrow is the day i get the apo fliers printed up, and call to confirm all of our room reservations. I also need to send out an email for a rush committee mtg and a fellowship thing the first thursday back... and i have to get permission for the thing jenn and i are thinking of doing for a service project/fundraiser. Its really awesome, and if we can figure out a way to do it and have it work... it will be so great.
um, what else? I went home this weekend and stayed with my parents for a while. It was serioiusly the best, most relaxing weekend i have had in a while. Went to dinner with the fam (joey included) sat night and it was the funniest thing ever. My parents are just a riot. and then sunday we went to donnas new house for a late xmas, and olivia wanted to sit on my lap and play with me! It really means a lot, she is a very headstrong little 3 yr old and if she doesnt want to like you, she wont. I have seen this girl every day for the past year and i have been around a lot for her short life and still, its like i diidnt even exist. but sunday she wanted me to play memory wth her and she had to sit on my lap to do it, i was in heaven. and hannah is groiwing up so fast, she is a beautiful little girl. That night i went to sarahs and hung out for a while. my second family. Steph is like my little sister, i thik it upsets sarah sometimes that me and steph are close too, but it shouldnt. Sarah is one of my best friends, steph is moire like a little sister i never had. they were having a bday dinner for mom and uncle doug, and i hadnt seen him in a while so that was fun,. His kids and their significant others came over and it was a rockin good dinner. haha ofcourse it would after half a rum and coke, 3 glasses of wine and two cups of coffee and baileys!
Its really importat for me to be with people and be doing things that make me comfortable, without much trying on my part. I think i was away from things like that for too long over this break and this weekend was exactly what i needed. its boosted my motivation levels way up, and now i am ready to get some stuff done.
but oh god, before anything tomorrow, i have got to clean this room! and i have to do my lundry over since i never folded it and left in in my basket for too long and now its all yucky...i think i forgot about the clean clotrhes in there and threw some dirty things in there too... oh well, you do what ya gotta do.
well, i'm not really all that tired yet. I'm gonna try and do this every night and see how it goes... off i go to count backwards from a hundred... night all
