I am Fairly Certain my Professors are Conspiring Against Me
I have 4 projects with presentations due the week after Thanksgiving. So much for enjoying family time.
This is my life. The ups, downs, stressful times, boring times, joyful times. Everything. I hope you enjoy taking a peek into my random mind.

About 2 or 3 weeks ago I brought my lap top to school with me... something I never do... to make sure it would hook up properly for a presentation. I ALSO had my water bottle in my backpack. Somehow my water bottle exploded spilling at least 16 ounces of water on EVERYTHING. When I tried to turn my computer on it turned on, but the screen was completely blank.
This semester I have a ton of group projects and presentations as well as individual ones. 9 in total. The nice thing about all of the times I've had to be in front of the class... as well as constantly getting in front of 5th and 6th graders and teaching? I'm no longer nervous at all to speak in front of people. Sweet.
I've become totally addicted to Netflix. I love watching movies anyway. When I watch TV I usually search for a movie instead of a show. And it's SO much cheaper than renting from Blockbuster. Yay movies!
I'm attempting to write more on here again, but as I get to this page I can't really think what to write about.
"Don't Go to Church. Be the Church."
We had more kids than chairs this morning in Club 56. I failed to count but that's more than 20 kids.
I started school on Tuesday. I can't believe that it's FINALLY my last year. I'm taking 12 units, which should be a nice lighter load than usual. However each of my 4 classes has one major group project and presentation, and at least one individual paper and presentation. Sort of intense. At the same time all of my professors seem like they enjoy teaching and enjoy their subjects, so hopefully the classes will be more enjoyable. They sound interesting enough.
Sunday was the first time I was in charge of teaching Sunday school for Club 56. I've been praying so much for God to just use me and speak through me to those pre-teens. On my own i easily get nervous or doubt myself. But Sunday went so amazingly. Everything was smooth, the class was under control and the lesson went well.
I babysat a 7 week old girl tonight. She was very cute and pretty good until she got tired. I think that I'll just skip the baby phase and adopt kids when they're at least 2 already. Yep, definitely.
This is probably the longest I've gone without blogging! Anyway I am back from my summer of fun and life is starting to get back to "normal". I'm completely broke and in debt. Which I knew I would be. But the reality is a lot more stressful. To make that better the power steering went out on my car last Friday. Something about a hose broken and something else being messed up that broke it. Almost $800 and 3 days later I got it back. On the positive it's good it didn't break down while we were on our road trip and stranded in a little po-dunk town.
I haven't been able to get onto the internet for a week. It was kind of freeing actually. But now I am back again, catching up on life.
I am off to kids camp for a week at Idyllwild! We have 10 preteen girls from our church going (not including all of the other kids who won't be in my cabin). And I'm sure we'll have a few more from another church like we did last year. Should be fun! As long as I don't lose my sanity.
Has it really been over a month since I last blogged?? A lot has been going on... lets see if I can give a brief overview in a kind of order...
I'm done!!
You have probably already heard. If you haven't then it means you haven't seen the news, or gone on yahoo, or anything in the past 13 hours.
This year is Amy's last year working with Club 56. She's graduating in a couple of weeks and then going to work at a camp in Michigan for the summer. And then is kind of up in the air after that... but not back at our church.
There was a minor outbreak of Hepatitis A in San Diego. They figured out that all 6 of these people had eaten at the same Chipotle in the past month and a half. This happens to be the Chipotle right down the street from me. And I've eaten there twice in the time frame they mentioned in the news. Sweet!
I have 2.5 more weeks of classes. Then a week of finals and then I'm free for the summer! It's kind of a crazy but exciting (and expensive) summer.
This weekend is our church's womens retreat. I'm pretty excited to bring the average age down quite a bit :) Amy and my friend Monica and I are making shirts with cartoon salt shakers and light bulb's since the theme is "Salt and Light". Yay for being cheesy!
Friday I went to breakfast at Denny's with Corrie. That was nice, I haven't seen her in awhile. Busy schedules... don't really live that close to each other... all that jazz.
Cerise upon seeing my mascara: "You totally bought this mascara because the tube is hot pink didn't you?"
I am a crappy phone person. I stink at calling people back. I stink even more at keeping in touch. I often stink at answering the phone.
According to a recent Harris Poll ranking America's top 10 favorite books, the Bible ranked #1.
Do you ever feel boring? Well I feel boring lately. After Thursday my life gets more exciting. But for now... I'm boring.
Hey friends sorry for not answering questions! So lets see...
