Well, today's Friday!
Thank God! This week has been a rough one.
Trying to get everything situated with school is..for lack of a better word, annoying! I've been to the financial aide office countless times in the past few weeks. They tell me I need just one more piece of paperwork..then, just one more, and so on. How frustrating!?
This summer semester is crazy! I've never taken a short summer semester before..and, it's intense! To fit everything in one month that is usually jammed into four months is insane. Good news!! I'm doing well in my class! I mean, so far, I've gotten good grades on my quizzes and tests! I couldn't really ask for better..I mean, an A would be nice...but, let's not get picky!
All day Thursday and partially on Wednesday I was sick! Throwing up...and, I think a fever? But, I could never check it...I was too busy being acquainted with the toilet. I didn't eat anything all day Thursday and threw up my dinner from Wednesday night. Man, was I somewhat hungry on Thursday late night! Luckily, my boss is understanding and I called him at 6:20A and he let me stay home on Thursday! So, I slept. ..and slept a little more..and a little bit more, until I forced myself to crawl out of bet and shower and get ready for school at 5P. School was a DRAG listening for 3 1/2 hours and taking a quiz. Ugh, I was dead to the world on Thursday.
But, today I'm feeling better. Thank goodness.
This weekend will be extremely busy trying to get all of my schoolwork finished. I have an exam to study for, chapters to read, a paper to write, study guide to fill out...well, you get the drift.
So, woo hoo for the weekend?

Ohh, it's Monday!
Man, Monday's seem especially hard sometimes. This past weekend was pretty busy!
Friday night I volunteered at the DS monthly meeting. I played with the kids and helped keep an eye on them. Man, do kids know how to keep you feeling "young!" (Like I'm so old!)
Then, on Saturday night I babysat for a family that I knew from Alabama. They are in Destin on a work trip and wanted some free time, so, I helped 'em out. I didn't get home til late because I went and kept Mike busy while he was pulling an all-nighter at work.
So, luckily, Meme & Papa let me sleep in and skip church..Then about 12:30 me and Mike made a trip to Marianna, where we grew up, and hung out with an old childhood friend. It was good to see her! But, I wish that we could've seen more of our friends! But, it's ok.
So, needless to say, my weekend was pretty busy.
On another note..everyday..it's a struggle, a personal struggle. Sort of like an "addiction" as I've described it. I'm trying to take it day by day..but, it doesn't seem to be getting much easier. I wish I was like other people that can just wipe things out of their mind and not worry about it. Like it never existed!...But, that's not who I am.
So, another struggle I seem to be having is school. I'm just not enjoying school right now. When I was at AUM, I made a lot of great friends the last semester I was there.. It seems like at GCCC I just haven't met anyone yet. I mean, honestly, I'm going to school because I want my degree...but, a nice social life would be nice!!
