(no subject)
it has been awhile since the lj thing occured but whatever i'll go for it.
it's been a weird day.
i slept in really late which was nice but threw me off. more than six hours of sleep is too much. i went to the office and had a showdown with cori which was interesting. i love when i stand up for myself and i earn respect rather than coming off as a whiny child. it's emotionally taxing though, and after the showdown i wen to talk to an advisor. when she said "you are right on track and you are doing amazing" i almost broke down because it was so nice to hear that from someone instead of hearing how much work i have to do.
amber and i had a fun bonding night and then i went to the boys and girls club. i love the kids there. taking care of kids is annoying but hanging out with kids that are cool and not spoiled is fun and challenging in a good way. they are so blunt and i definetly know the lyrics to more rap songs now. it's refreshing to be around them because they're honest. i think the civic engagement project is going well and it damn well better get me into law school.
general council was a trip.
but the best part of the day was coming home and me and amber ordering pizza (i never spend the money on that anymore....it was a treat) and having kady, ashley, sarah hays, hayley and kyrie all come to hang out. sk and breeze were in bed but other than that those absences it was the most fun night cuz we were all together and being silly. it's lame i know but it's interesting to think of how i came to this strange place where i didn't know anyone and now i'm surrounded by people i care so much about. KODAK CHEESY FUCKING MOMENT RIGHT HERE.
the only downside is that i remembered how much i miss brenda to death. but the upside is pc 06 karen came over and she reminds me of brenda it's oddly comforting.
also, we designed our sweatshirts for the mafia dance on friday. they are going to say "welcome to the family" on the front and "you know how we do" on the back i think. we'll see what the kids all think.
so i guess things are ok. work is good. i work a lot but that's ok. it's all ok. =)
