I realize that this makes no sense, but I've noticed that lately my mind's been wondering to the goings on of my ex. It's really been a terribly nagging feeling. It's like that when you have that canker sore in your mouth. It's painful, and annoying however you can't seem to stop yourself from tonguing at it. Sigh...I know exactly why this is ( Read more... )

Love,
Me

Well, today is my last day in Oregon. Tomorrow I go back to KS where finals and KQAS (my certification) will soon become my life. I'm really sad to be going but in the same, really excited to know that my life has a "next step." I'm starting to think that I'm going to really like it here, save the fact that I'm going to be alone...in many ways... ( Read more... )

Okay, I'm back...but this time at the Public Library off campus. This space is like some tiny little town out of a movie. I mean, wow. I bet these people don't even lock their doors. Haha. But I'm finding that that's one of the things that I'm starting to like about this space. It's simplicity. I'm just here finishing up the last little bits of my ( Read more... )
