i miss all the OLs!!!! I had an AWESOME time hanging out with them during oritentation...it was so much fun i didn't want it to end. but sadly enough it has and now i'm back home [insert sarcastic yay here].
Orientation was a blast, it really was. but at the same time it wasn't everything i was expecting. some of the orientiees were awesome, while others...well...i tried SO hard to get them into it but no matter how hard i tried they we're responsive to me and didn't want to try. i don't remember who said it but they were right when they said that some kids think that they're "too cool for school/orientation" and that "they should GET OVER THEMSELVES cuz they're going to scholl while its optional." i guess i was concentration on everyone having a good time, or just that i was overcritical of myself, that i let those CHILDREN get the best of me. I'm glad I was able to talk to Ivy during the session 3 square dancing time cuz she helped me get a much needed confidence boost. After orientation a bunch of people told me that they were glad I was an OL and gave me a bunch of compliments. YAY ME!!! I felt very special (major confidence boost!!) that I realized that no matter how much those KIDS possibly hated me that there were a bunch of other AWESOME MATURE STUDENTS that actually liked me. But I loved being an OL, especially since I got to work with so many other wonderful OLs.
During wrap-up the advisors gave us awards. i got the "positive energy/vanna white" award cuz i was always positive, giving people hugs, and holding the signs during the skits. i got the "soy de cuba y soy muy caliente" (I'm cuban and i'm very hott) award from the senior OLs. hee hee.
however, now i'm back at home and i'm sad. i feel like no one's here!! everyone's kinda just doing they're own thing. catherine's is on the other side of the world visting family, kizzy's in north dakota (and its not fun having ur best friend far away from u when ur both going thru drama at the same time), donna is i dunno where, and i dunno where or what the rest of the C-Club is doing, SD ppl are spread out and far away from me, the list goes on and on. i will not be bored this summer... i will not be bored this summer...
on saturday after i got home i went to PV with my mom to visit my cousin cuz she just moved there. it's such a purdy house!! and i'm so glad that barbie's closer cuz now i can go and visit her bunches!!! i've also stared a massive room cleaning. i've decided that if i must live at home until september then i must get my room organized. i've done my closet and i think i threw away 50 pounds of papers from high school!!!
i must try to get a job, and maybe go to summer school. and i'm so gonna take ballet again!! i miss it; anyone in the area care to join me???
i'm striving for independence this summer while trying to fix previously mentioned drama. Oh!! and i want to have fun this summer and not be bored, sitting on my butt all day long watching TV.
