Woot Woot! No more classes!
Holy crap it's been a while. Reading the Suite B posts has been interesting. I'm glad to see that things are starting to look up for some of the ladies. So is this the end-of-the-quarter post? I guess so. Um...I wrote 5 papers this week. That was pretty crazy. I got a job at the Rec Center as a fitness instructor. I don't know how I keep getting these "fitness" jobs. It's so odd. But anyhoo, I'm going to be an assistant instructor Spring Quarter, and then I'm going to start teaching aerobic and instructional dance classes in the summer. Make sure to sign up for my class! I'm going to post what classes I'll be assistant teaching as soon as I find out. I'm really excited about this job. My new boss is so cool, even if she is hard to get ahold of. Most of the instructors seem pretty cool. The Rec Center seems like a totally chill place to work so far. Oh, plus I make $9.25 as an assistant and $12 when I become a regular instructor. So nice! AND, I'm still teaching dance lessons once a week in AG, PLUS the girl who I tutored in September that one week just called, and she needs a tutor for Spring Quarter once a week. WOW!
So that's the job front. The Institute Council is still a bit shaky, but for the most part things are good. Snow Ball was awesome, and we're looking to put on an 80's dance in April and a Luau BBQ in June. I'm working hard on getting the Institute library organized, and even though it's pretty hard and frustrating sometimes, it's been really rewarding to go through all the books and make the library a nice, clean place again. I have the best calling in the world. I wouldn't give it up for anything! I even get to be Dan's sexy secretary...hehehe.
Speaking of Dan, I couldn't be happier. We are progressing so well and I think this is the best our relationship has ever been. There's still room for improvement on both parts, but I have complete faith in us. When I think of everything he's done for me and how wonderful he makes me feel...I think I'm the luckiest girl on Earth. No worries, no marriage in the works. I still like being a girlfriend lots and lots, so it will stay that way for a while if I have anything to do with it. We're celebrating our one year in a couple of weeks...exciting!
So I guess all there is left to cover is the internal stuff. I'm pretty happy (as I'm sure you could tell). Of course, there is always room for improvement. Right now, I'm working on loving myself just a little bit more. I still have issues with how I look and my weight sometimes, even though I know it's silly. I'm also working on forgiving myself more easily. Beating myself up about things that happened a year or even three or more years ago is ridiculous, especially after I've learned the lesson. Some things are hard to let go of. Sometimes I can't believe how stupid I've been, but that's part of growing up. I think my next project will be stopping the chewing of my nails and the areas around it (but don't tell Dan, he'll gloat and stuff). I know it's gross, but it's a rough habit to break.
I'm totally up for a Suite B reunion! I will be around all Spring Break with the exception of the weekend (March 25-27) so if y'all are gonna be here let's get something together!
