Its been so long
It has been so long since I last posted, since I last felt like I needed to write a journal. I really feel like I should write everyday, writing helps get ideas and thoughts out of my head, no matter what it is I'm writing about. I don't know why I feel so lazy when it comes to writing, all I have to do is sit and type out the thoughts inside my head, what is so hard about that? Well in any case, here I am, I have made it.
Well lets see lets see, last time I posted it was September, man a lot has changed since September.
I have 6 more days of school left, that's 3 weeks, but I only have class 2 days a week, so 6 days left. My graduation is on December 20th, I am very excited about it. But what in the world am I going to do after wards? I mean I hardly go to class as it is, but at least I have like homework and crap I can do in the mean time lol but man with out class..... I feel like I am going to be lost.
I got a new job! Its a long story really. I really got sick of the crap going on at In n Out, I was only working like 20 hours a week, and I was not getting trained on anything new, well learning how to cook, that's all i had left there. But that's the top, then management, but every time I would ask if I could learn someone would tell me no. I got really sick of it, on top of that I was not working any hours and getting very little pay checks. Well I finally got sick of it and put in my two weeks, Andy proceeded to BEG me to stay, telling me I was too amazing, my attitude was too great, he would change this and change that, I would learn to cook, I would get more hours, well after like an hour of talking to him and crying because I was so confused about what I wanted to do now, I gave in and told him I would stay, well after 2 weeks nothing at all changed. I was still getting no hours, still not getting to learn to cook, and to top it all off they were having me do lvl 1 crap, starting crap. So finally I just went in to Andy and he asked me if I thought about what I wanted to do and I told him not work there anymore. He had me clean out my locker and that was that. I am sad about it, it really was a wonderful place to work, I just couldn't do the hours and couldn't stand not being trained on new stuff.
So then I found out I got hired at UCP, United Cerebral Palsy. I will be working with people with disabilities. I have not actually started yet, but I did all my computer training they require, I have taken one of their classes out of 2 that are required. I have one left, its a lifting class on the 26th of this month. I met a friend there, she is absolutely awesome! I got my schedule already, I have 4 consumers. I am very excited to actually start working!! I cant wait to start making a difference for these peoples lives.
I also started this volunteer work at a place called Tu Nidito. It is a place for children and teens to go for support groups twice a month when they have lost someone close to them. I am going to be doing two groups, so 4 times a month, every Wednesday, one of my groups will be with teens and the other group is with the middles, 8 - 12 year olds. I am very excited about this. I had to do a three week training class for it, just 3 Saturdays, but I learned so much and just fell in love with the program. I also cant wait to get started with that, my first group is tomorrow actually and I just cant wait.
Another super exciting new thing that has happened was that Obama was elected president!! I am so excited about this new change!!! I don't really have too much to say about that the high from it is already gone, but I thought I would add that to my little piece of history here.
I read these books by Stephanie Myers, the Twilight series. They were the most amazing books i have ever read in my life!!! If there is someone reading this, you must read those books!! You will fall in love with them. The movie for the first book is coming out this Friday. I am going to Phoenix on Sunday after I drop off Andrew to visit his friend Alex in prison, to see it with Andrews sister Marisa. We are both super excited!! Its going to be wonderful.
Well, I guess that catches me up to today!!
Today I am at home sick! Just the other day I was telling Andrew how happy I was that I had not caught whatever it was that everyone else has gotten yet, and of course last night I start feeling like shit!! I went to bed at 10pm, woke up at 5 to take Andrew to work, got home went back to sleep at 6 and didn't wake up till 11. I really should have gone to class today but I was just feeling so sick. I should go to class tonight but I just don't want to, and I feel bad because Andrew is getting a ride home from work because I am supposed to be in class and I texted him to tell him I could come get him but his phone is off cuz he cant have it at work and yeah lol oh well, I guess it will just save us some gas.
Well I think I am going to go lay down and get some more sleep. I sure hope I start feeling better soon!! I hate being sick!
