a QLS creation
the house is coming along… we started drywalling in the kitchen 2 weeks ago and it’s awesome to not be seeing the insides of the walls anymore. i’m hopeful (as in keeping my fingers crossed) that i’ll have a kitchen by may.
so…hating the fact that i have to write a thesis because i’m burned on the school thing at this point. my interest and enthusiasm for this endeavor is in way to short a supply. even though the information and articles on leadership, volunteerism, and APLA are all interesting, figuring out how i’m supposed to put it all together with interviews and background info is completely beyond me.
jeez…
for the first time in my life i actually had to go into court to serve jury duty. i was sort of looking forward to experiencing the process. when i got sent to a court room yesterday and had to go back today; and then when they dismissed a group of jurors this morning, i thought for sure i’d be kept on the jury. but to my surprise (and disappointment) i was later excused by the district attorney.
i really wonder why i was excused. not that i’ll ever get an answer, but i do wonder
i wonder why people who make promises and arrangements seem so often to forget what they agreed to.
i guess it’s senioritis when the idea of studying instead of going out with my friends makes me really bitter
in the sixth quarter of the MPA program and this is the most difficult quarter yet. i’m not doing as well as i’d like and i’m going to have to make some modifications if i’m going to turn my situation around
it’s been way too long since i’ve posted anything here. i’ll try to post more often
the last year has sucked so bad… i’m countin’ on a whole lotta the good stuff coming my way from this point on.
life that is… sometimes it really does stink. right now, and for most of the summer, life has turned into a blah-fest. i’m not unhappy, per se, it just seems like there’s been so much turmoil over the last several months and it is taking its toll on me.
my sleep patterns are a mess, to me anyway. it’s tough getting to sleep and then i still make myself get up early to be at work by or before 7am. i haven’t been dancing as much as i’d hoped, and now that school started again, i’ve completely lost dancing on mondays.
the situation with my mom is really stressful, really, really stressful. it’s not just her either, it’s my dad. he drives me absolutely nuts; i can go from being cool and calm to being completely pissed in seconds when in his presence. mom really doesn’t handle stress very well at all (we’ve known this) but now, it’s even more noticeable. most things are overwhelming to her.
having my best friend sick too just really sucks.
some days the combination of them, and everything else going on with school and work, my family, and my car seems overwhelming.
i know things won’t always be like this… it just seems like i’ve been in a funk for months. nothing really excites me these days.
