| Wow, so it's been like, forever and a day since I was last here.
Here's the update. I'm now 21, nearly finished with TCC (in contrast with my last post which was my first semester), I am still happily working with the employer with whom I had the interview, and have recently (last two years) started teaching music lessons. I still keep in contact with most if not all my friends and have made some new ones in the recent years.
I have recently taken up voice lessons, and I completely love it. My teacher seems to think that I am quite gifted and has encouraged me profusely to pursue a career in singing, or music at the very least.
I wish my more passionate writings would return to me. I used to write such pieces that would stir the dormant soul, or so I would have liked to think, but as late, I remain uninspired to write so much as a haiku, much less a soul-stirring poem or insight. Perhaps getting back into the groove of things will beckon my old self.
As for now, it's nice to be back, and I hope to make blogging, once again, a stop in my cyber-space travels.

| Well, when it's all been said and done, there is just one thing that matters: "Did I study well enough for my finals?" For the only two classes I'm taking, I'll pass both of them. My College Success class was a breeze and I'm sorry to be done with it. I never thought, however, that I would pass my English class by the skin of my teeth. Don't get me wrong; I love English, but for some reason my thought patterns are not organized enough to satisfy Mr. Bill Ebbesen, lol. I love the guy, I really do, but let me tell you: He's a hardass, or at least totally can be. The Ball went really well. Tons and tons of people showed up and that was cool. I didn't dance nearly so much as i really wanted to, but hey. whats a girl going to do? I seriously almost went and just grabbed some guy and said "Ok, we're doing the next one" but i thought that might be a little forward, lol. It was a blast though ^_^ I had my job interview and it went fairly well. I think mom is beginning to have second thoughts about my ability to keep this job, but like so many things: We'll just have to wait and see. My family had a Christmas party last night and it was great. I got to hang out with all my guys and that was the best part. It occurs to me that, after so any years I finally have a stereotype. I am finally the girl who is treated amongst the guys as another guy. Yes, I still have my feminine wiles and womanly kinda flare, but "my group" consists of almost exclusively guys! And just in case anyone missed the underlying tone, here: I LOVE IT! I seriously want to have 8 boys, like, as my children. Girls are cool and all, but nothing comes close to a bunch of boys running around like hooligans making noise and driving everybody crazy. Yes, I AM insane, but hey. Boys really are just cooler. and that's my update. | | |
| Holy crap!! i haven't been on xange, in like, AGES man, i tell you what! i've kinda missed everyone, i have to admit. ok, so the update. I'm in TCC now, and it's only two more weeks till the end of the semester. wow, it's gone by so quickly. unfortunately, i wont be making an apearance on campus next semester as ive gotten oh hell of an awesome job offer! a hotshot builer in town is really good friends with my mom and our two families have been friends for years. well, turns out that another friend of mine who is currently employed with him is going away to college this December, so he needs a new assistant! i really cant wait to start, but we'll see how it all goes down. this job is totally perfect for what i need right now. my curent job is great, save for not being paid for a good while.. as in, like.. 3 months! but hey. am i complaining?.....dont answer that ;) also in teh time since my last post, i've turned 18! I'm now a legal adult, and to be perfectly honest, it does kinda feel different. I haven't had trouble remembering my new age like i have in past years. weird eh? This Sunday at church i got a bump on the back and a lovely surprised as to just who hd done the bumping.. and it was none other than my long-lost, beloved friend Philip ^_^ before he started getting into trouble a number of years ago, he and i were pretty much best friends. called each other everyday, played games and hung out everytime we were at the same place. he slept over at our house a few times and those are some of my favorites times ^_^ Both Philip and another awesome friend, Wes, came over to my house after having gone to lunch with some mutual friends. we played music, hung out and really enjoyed each others' company. it was definitely a great time and much needed to get caught up on a few things between us. My churches annual Christmas Ball is coming up so fast! I keep thinking of these "seasonal" events being so far away, but next thing i know everyone is talking about ball dresses, sugar cookies, and going out of town to visit family for the holidays. I'm not so terribly excited about this ball as i have been about some of the ones preceeding it, but like Benjamin Franklin said so long ago "If one would have his guests merry with cheer, he must be so himself, or at least appear." Mom thinks i ahve a crush on the uy, bu i told her that wasn't the case at all. i'm simply a sucker for a long dead womanizer ;) Anyway, thats the update for now. Paul, Melinda and Alicia should be getting out of class soon so Grace and i will probably end up having lunch with them again :p They're awesome ^_^ LOVE PEACE AND CHICKEN GREASE!!
