Praise the Lord

Well, I will be gone next week for a week of camp counseling at Ross Point!!!! I am super excited. I have tons to do before I can go though. Homework and planning for my substitute teacher next week. Pray.

The Purpose Driven Life

I bought a journal yesterday thinking I could use it with out the book, "The Purpose Driven Life", but I was wrong. So now I need to go find a copy of the book and that is okay because I have been told that it is amazing. I am kicking myself thought. Someone donated boxes and boxes of that book to my college and they have been available to the students for free for like 3 years. Did I ever go get one?? NOPE! Silly me.

Why do I lack motivation??

I am taking 2 classes online this summer to finish up my undergrad work. One class has definite deadlines (not late work accepted) while the other is just "do whatever". I am really struggling with that class. I am really far behind and really need to get caught up. That is my goal this week... to get caught up. Pray for me! I have 3 papers to write and a 6 question essay test to do. I am going to need some motivation.

Extreme Dodgeball

I was just watching extreme dodgeball on the game show channel. It is soooo funny!

What did I do today? Well a bit of nothing really. I read a book and than went to the mall with my cousin. Than I went back to the mall and got my hair cut and my brows waxed. It was really good (it took about 20 minutes total). I am really happy with my hair! It was so long and bugging me a lot! I think I shall do homework this afternoon. Oh... I watched the movie Hitch as well and laughed a bit. It's good for the soul.

Bothered

Is anyone else bothered by anonymous posts?? I love that people read and comment but I do like to know who is reading and commenting. Just an annoyance for today. So if you read and comment please leave your name:) I hope you are all having a wonderful Saturday.

So this is the awesome group of people that I worked with all summer last year. I just got a call requesting my services for camp counseling and am so sad that I had to say no. I miss Ross Point more than anything right now. I am so homesick for camp it is ridiculous. Templed Hills was good but Ross Point has so much more to offer and I'm not talking facility wise. God is definitly the center of everything. I want to ask for the 4 days off that I would need but don't know if it is appropriate. Hum... the delima. It's in 2 weeks so I guess I better figure out if I can ask for it off. Pray for me in my decision making.

Heat Stroke...

It is so hot here... I hate the heat for one and you don't have much energy for two. It was probably 95 degrees today and I don't think it is going to get better anytime soon.

My summer... so far has been

busy and frustrating and good all in one. I am now in Idaho and am busy busy busy. I am finally seeing what it means to work and not get paid (teaching). Not that I don't get paid, its just that I work quite a bit while not on the clock.

Having gone through my first full week with my kids in the classroom I now know to expect the unexpected and to be flexible. Like on Friday I had about 10 pre-k kids in my room and I had to entertain them and my school age kids sorta got put on the back burner. It sucked for me and for them. But now I know that I need to expect that kind of thing to happen and be prepared for it.

Anyway... thats all the time I have (well the energy I have) folks. Hope you are all doing well and enjoying the summer!

Open House

Party with my oldest sister... so many people were there... why do people attend an open house when they don't even know you? It was at the youth center so a few people just came to play... it was really annoying cause it was a party for Joy and I... am I being to selfish?? I love my sister though and that we graduated the same year!

It's blurry but I got my diploma folder... no diploma until December 

Moving Out

Oh what fun it is move out! NOT

Graduation

It felt as if I was just playing dress up

So much has been happening!

Hello all of my friends:

I have been away for quite a long time. I am now in Idaho and will start my job with my students on Monday. I spent the last week getting prepared for them. I need to get to my homework so will just say that I am still alive and around. Hope all is well in your worlds.
