Wow. I haven't updated ths in so long! Haven't you all missed me on this lovely world of LJ?? Come on, you know you love to read about my daily emotional bursts! J/K.
Anyways, I'm ever so glad those devils are on a field trip today, so I won't have to go to work and see them! Jeanne thinks otherwise, but that's just being Jeanne.
Yesterday, was probsbly one of my first bad days this summer. I failed my driving test because I was driving under speed limit-thus-that's a critical error and blah blah blah. I expected it, so technically I shouldn't have felt so bad, but then my tester was moody and yelled at me at the end for driving under the speed limit, so yeah, that kind of ruined my day. But enough about driving. Didn't like it in the first place and never will like it. I'm sure there are better things for me to think about.
So besides my driving test yesterday, I also had a revelation about life and me and me in life last night while I was feeling upset. I was thinking over why I was feeling unhappy even when I was talking to friends that usually cheer me up. So I figured that I can't always rely on people to do the work, I have to create some sort of inner peace/happiness/stability that i can bounce on when I feel down. I don't think this is such a great revelation because I sort of knew about it before, but I was just too busy then to really work up to it. This is definitely a summer of growth for me.
Watching the kids and how they act, especially how the 7th graders tease each other about guys and girls made me realize how immature I used to be and maybe still am. I think i'm becoming too serious now. I shouldn't be thinking so much (*looks at stack of papers that need to be graded*). I guess I'll just face the whole seriousness of life when life finally catches up to me. Unitl then, I'll develop inner peace, treasure each day and ofcourse.....grade...papers........
Sorry folks. This is another very boring entry.
