Nothing exciting happened. Earlier today the butterflies turned into dread. It was odd. But now I'm fine. Except my stomach is spasming...just a little bit of it...it's weird.
Sooo...uhhh...did Bible school tonight and it was pretty fun chillin with the kids. I was teaching the how to say please. I love the sound of children's laughter. It just makes me smile. Today a girl brought her hermit crabs into work. She named one after me. Haha. One week from today we'll be on our way to Colorado. I'm so pumped.
Wow this was going to be so much better. Someday it'll happen, a good entry. I guess one of the things I've been thinking about lately is how I feel about myself. And the truth is, lately, I feel pretty good! I mean, I don't necessarily like everything about myself, but I accept it. And if other people can't accept me, that's their problem and their loss. I'm not going to let what other people think of me cause me to be depressed or feel like I'm less of a person. I like the feeling of liking myself, and I think I'll keep going with it. God gives me my ultimate worth, and that's all that matters.
I'm tired because last night there were drunk people out on a deck arguing over who was most sober and could go get more cigarettes and alcohol because they were out. Rena was not happy because it was hot and took long enough to fall asleep anyway. It was hard to get up this morning. But oh well.
The kids have been kinda disrespectful this week. Really mouthy, and they can't just follow directions, they have to question everything. Plus, we have a lot of compulsive liars. There's one girl who, at least 5 times a day, will tell me something is hers, even if it is very clearly labeled as belonging to Southern Hills. Sometimes I wonder what goes through their minds. There are times when I understand what they do, and even respect their guts (even if I get annoyed), but other times I'm just like, dude, seriously, just chill and act your age. Then I was thinking adults are like that too. The kids whisper...just a little. And adults speed...just a little. We yell at the kids for leaving others out...and then turn around and form our own adult clubs and cliques, leaving others out for some reason or another. Often times it makes us feel powerful I suppose. I used to do it a lot, probably to make up for the times I was left out when I was younger. I don't know where my thoughts are going, so I'm going to just stop. Smooches!
