Yay for fall break! :oD
I've always said this, but schools seem to make vacations right when you need them. This vacation is definitely not any different.
Since my last update, my mood has cheered up alot. Thanks to Emily for interjecting and taking me away for a while! I really needed it. :o) I'm still working on this major thing. I know now that I definitely want to switch. I can't take english anymore. If every English professor was like Mrs. Weiss then I'd consider it, but they're not and right now, I just want to crawl in hole and hide from Shakespeare and Poetry. It's not something for me and even though it took 3 semesters to figure it out, I'm glad I did so that I can do something that I really like. So I got to thinking...I'm in love with Dr. Phil...and his son :oP I love his shows. One of my friends and I literally sit there and diagnose his patients before he does and it's best time ever! Not to mention I've been playing 'Anne Landers' as my aunt calls it to my friends. I like helping people, it makes me feel good...even though they dont' listen! SO I'm seriously considering Psych for a major. It won't put me too far behind because I'm ahead an Education class so that'll give me an extra slot 2 semesters from now. So I'm just waiting on the Department Heads to email me back so I can go talk to them and get the hell out of English!
I had a mean streak this past week, and I have to tell you...it felt good! I said some cynical things, my personal favorite being "here's the backbone you wanted me to grow, now shove it up your ass!" ...so I didn't say it directly to her but I still said it!! I guess it's just that time. I never used to say anything because I was afraid of what people would say back...and I have confrontation. But there just comes a time when you have to stop letting people walk all over you and tell them to back off! And plus, being means kinda fun! O:o)
Works wonderful! I'm still getting used to being head of a group of college kids and I'll admit, I'm not all that great at it but one of the reasons why I applied was because I want to get better at being a leader. My team works really well together. They all seem to like each other for the most part and they're all excited about starting with the kids soon. We had our first meeting yesterday. It didn't go exactly as I planned and I wish that more people would have paid attention to me and helped with ideas a stuff. I would suggest something, be like "what do you guys think?" ::blank stares:: "is that OK with everyone?" ::more blank stares and the occasional nod:: I felt like they didn't take me serious and that kinda made me angry. Am I not intimidating?!
In the good news category...The little girl I'm tutoring for Education absolutely LOVES me! ...and I love her too. Her names Jenasia and she's the cutest 4th grader EVER! I love inner city kids...they're so funny. That's where I want to go, I decided.
That's about it for now. Can't wait to see you all again...I need my normal friends back!!
