hi,

so i havent written in forever, basically because im pretty lazy. =) lol, not really, at least for the most part. But lately life has been so crazy that i cant sit long enough to complete anything thats not school/work related, which is NOT pleasant. I'm working constantly at Michaels because apparently they think i have no life outside of work, yeah i guess they assume homework gets itself done! silly people! anyways, then finals for normandale are coming up...ICK! i mean im glad its almost over, but all that studying! oh gosh. i really am not feeling to excited. but i get a whole month in between semisters so that is amazing! and im pretty sure im going on like two road trips and catching up on sleep. by the way, if you have a good idea for a place to raod trip, let me know! im still deciding on where me and my friends are going to go. and there is piano, which is scary because i dont practice and i have a recital coming up...and even though i can kind of wing it and get through the song well i feel like i should do even better because its my senior year and everything...*sigh*.

     good things happening though are christmas is coming up and im so thrilled! i cant wait, i bought my own small christmas tree form my work this year and now im slowly gathering my own ornaments (if you have any you dont want i'll take those too! lol, jk). otherwise im just getting through stuff right now, and i suppose i'll be the better for it in the end. well, tootles for now :)

just a little bit of life

i haven't written in a very long time and that is unfortunate, so im writing now. basically, life is surging into a whole new direction. tennis is almost over, i cant even describe the relief that is causing me. dont get me wrong, i love playing tennis, but there are only so many matches a team can play until they get tired of losing. the horrible truth is that kennedy tennis is just not a winning team and probably wont be in existence to much longer. so, that's why im glad that im creating a very memorable banquet for the end of the season. As hard as it is sometimes, and even though a quarter of the time cant go, im still hanging on to a small amount of excitement. i will miss the girls though, they are real sweethearts, at least most of them.

   i got a job btw, im now working at the Michaels in edina. so come visit me! lol, its really fun, and uber easy. and im already making more than i ever did at byerlys (where i used to work). the people are really nice for the most part. one manager is pretty difficult to work with basically because i've already cashiered and i know how to do it well, but she wants me to do it HER way, which is the slow, pointless way to be honest. i dont mean to be cruel when i say that, her way of working just disagrees with my way. otherwise i really like the diversity of my co-workers, and i cant wait to get to know them.

    normy is ok, my last few psych exams went rather poorly, that was disappointing, but i have been trying to figure out how to effectively follow my schedule and i think i have it down pretty well now. so that is a relief as well. but i do have ACTS on the 28th and im nervous because i really want a good score and im taking the writing portion and even though im good at that normally im afraid i'll freeze =( so we'll see how that goes.

    oh, and i started working for this woman, mrs. nevins, at gideon pond nursing home. she hurt her back and leg so she needs help doing household chores. she does pay me, even though i protest, but i give the money to church because i would feel horrible spending it. i dont want to do this sort of work for my benefit, i want to do it for her. im sick of being so selfish, i want to give instead of taking all the time.

     but, i think thats all for now, all i have to say now is i long for a little free time other than at 1030 at night when all i can do is roam around on myspace and xanga, lol. have a great night :)

hmmm

so life is going sorta crazy right now, but in a weird sort of smooth way...sounds strange right? well let me explain then, first of all normy is so weird because i feel like it really isn't college, it feels a lot like a high school, even though i've never actually been to high school, but i'm pretty sure that that is what it would feel like. i think the reason i feel that way is because i recently visited bethel university with some friends for a late night worship service called vespers, and it was truly amazing! i really want to go to bethel because i think it is exactly the atmosphere i am looking for, and everyone is so nice and the general feeling of God's presence there is so cool. It makes you fall in love with Him all over again!  

      but yeah, and then tennis is going oddly, because i can tell i'm improving, but at the same time i'm still not winning my matches and that is extremely frustrating, especially when i can tell my coach is disappointed in me. i don't know, it's weird.

     nordstrom's called me though!!!!!!! :D that is extremely exciting, the woman i talked to wanted to sort of preinterview me on the phone, but i had to go to tennis, so i have to call her back. but i think she'll want to interview me. yay! so hoefully i'll at last have a job, and money. and i would get to work in the children's department which would make me so happy! because i adore kids, and i want to be a psychologist or teacher for kids so this kind of ties into that whole future.

     and that's about it, oh! last thing though, a very random high note of the week: snow patrol added me as a friend on myspace! woot! lol
