I feel like I haven't written in here in ages. Probably cause I haven't..hehe.
I really wish I had time to do the Haunted House thing in Alabaster. I've always wanted to work at one, even though they freak me out. I just love to see kids' faces at that kind of stuff. Brightens my day, for sure.
For the first time, school has actually consumed me life. I've been going to class and getting my work done not the day of or before, but actually a few days before it's due. Crazy, I know. :)
Things have been such a rollercoaster since school started. However, they are all calm now, which is exactly what I like. I thought that this year would be so tough and time consuming, and I was right, but it's been amazing. I've learned more about myself in like 2 months than I have ever imagined learning. I love this place. I love these people. Graduation won't be hard. My last class won't be hard. Senior service with ADPi won't be THAT hard (hehe). Saying goodbye to all of these memories, turning in my key to Apta 32, drving away from my life, that will be hard.
I am so flippin excited about my future, though. My first day of my pre-internship with Upward Bound is tomorrow. I get to help Mrs. Buff do her ACT prep classes with high schoolers. How flippin cool is that? You're so jealous, I know. I know I am supposed to be a high school teacher, I just know it. For once in my life, I'm absolutely sure about something.
Everything else seems to be turning out pretty darn well too. I've been so happy lately. It makes me smile to think about it. I can't believe I'm content with the situation right now. I have been so brave, I have been so understanding, I've been the me that I've always strived to be. We're both happy with what's going on right now and that makes me light up. Like I said from the beginning, that's exactly what I wanted. I watched Love Actually the other day, and my favorite part of the whole movie came on (the part where the guy comes to Kiera Knightly's door and has the poster board and tells her he loves her and all that jazz and she runs out and kisses him) well anyway, I love what he says at that moment..it's something like.."Enough. Enough for now." Oh my gosh, it makes me giggle, and I feel just like he does.
So, I'm running for Ms. Montevallo. I'm really excited, actually. I did my resume today and I have to turn everything in on Friday. I told Lisa from the beginning that I'm just doing it for fun, and I could care less if I win. I really hope I keep that philosophy. :)
I love going to the caf. I told myself I would go as much as possible my senior year, and I've done a pretty good job. I just love seeing everybody in there. I never see anyone b/c I have classes with all the same GIRLS. Could we please have some boy FCS majors? :)
I wish John Mayer and Gavin DeGraw would get there butts here. I really want to see them in concert. It would be my 6th John concert (obssesive, I know) and my first Gavin concert. However, SBT will suffice for me as of now, they rock so hard! :)
Russell and I are gonna go see The Lion King in like a week and half! I'm so freakin excited. Everyone that has gone says it's amazing, I love Simba! I saw Beauty and the Beast in London like 8 years ago and it was amazing, I can't wait for this one!
Well, I guess I'm gonna go. Lisa and I are gonna stir up some fun on the ol' Lambda Chi hall tonight, I think. I haven't been up there in a while, I'm excited.
I hope you kids have a fabulous rest of the week. Love and hugs! :)
