Wow.
It has literally been over a year since I last posted. Am I behind or what?
Well, I am currently working as a "School Aide" at an elementary school. Technically, I'm the school's bish in that I do everyone's lap dog work. Copying, laminating, risographing, computer things, typing reports, etc. Then, of course, I have lunch duty for two straight hours. The kids rock most of the time - I love 'em. They just sometimes get out of hand. It's hard not to when there's 200 K-5th graders in a lunchroom all at once with only 2 people watching you. I just unfortunately happen to be one of the two. But, all in all, I love it, because I'm around the lil' ones a lot, and I love that. I can't wait to be a mommy some day, I know I'll love it.
I'm starting up a recycling thing at the school - it needs one pretty bad. I don't know why I came up with it - I know I don't exactly have the extra time, but hell - why not? We waste so much damn paper, and the world is in pretty bad damn shape, so I should help the little bit that I can, eh?
I'm still not in college. Driving me crazy. But, then again, I don't know what I'd do - I want to be so many things. I'd love to own my own business - I'm thinking selling renaissance-type things (I know I spelled that wrong...) and incense, candles, swords, etc. I can picture my shop and everything. But, then again, I want to be a Pulmonologist (Lung Doc), Japanese High School Teacher, or E.R. Nurse. So, I guess It's not horrible I've not started college since I don't know what I'd go to do. (Then again, I could just take all the needed classes and figure out the majors later.)
Grr. Growing up just sucks, man.
On the down side, Erik and I had to move into a small-ass 1 bedroom apartment because we couldn't quite make "end's meet". So now all my crap I've accumulated over the past 22 years is now crammed into a very tiny space. He does have a good, steady job, though. Much more than I've been able to say of him in the past, so we'll get back on our feet before long, I'm sure.
Ohh, yeah - I'm 22 now. This birthday wasn't all that exciting.
Damn, isn't it crazy how time flies SO MUCH FASTER each year you get older? Can you believe we are already a quarter through this year?
My hubby (Erik), Marita (My sis), and my mom are all doing well. Mom's heart prob/strokes have evened themselves out and she is in much better health. Erik, as I said, has a good job and we aren't fighting as much as we did before. Of course, that might be because now he's never home and always out with friends, but hey - I can't ALWAYS complain, can I? lol...And Marita's getting herself (slowly, but surely) through the trials of high school. (She has it MUCH harder than me, though. She's attending an Academy of Arts and Majoring in Band and Second majoring in Japanese and taking ALL honors classes. That girl is so damn smart. I love her, man.
Well, I know that was probably boring, but I felt the need to update for some reason. I have no idea the next time I'll be able to write, so oyasuminasai for now!
