Like hope. Like happiness. Distant but visible. Foot in front of the other upon faith, moving forward. With thirst. With hunger. With desperation. One step, one step further. Two steps, two steps further. Grasping at the vision just out of reach. A hamster in a wheel. Ever moving with a fixed goal. Never moving, never reaching. False glimmers of ( Read more... )

Even though the school year seems to be winding down, I feel a lot of pressure. I can see the kids waiting until the last minute and because of it, I'm concerned about how many will actually pass. I'm giving them chances. That's what I tell myself. There is officially less than a month of school left. Frankly, I'm just trying to make it through. I' ( Read more... )

Tomorrow is finally Friday! Yay! It's Mother's Day weekend so I don't really know what's to go down but I expect it will be a nice weekend. I have a lot to do for next week planning-wise but hopefully I can get some work in while I'm down to visit ( Read more... )

I had a really nice weekend. It was busy in that I was out and about. On Saturday, after eating at Buffalo Wild Wings for the first time (for me anyway), I decide to try a cookie place on Katella. When Diana and I got there, the door was open but nobody was around. We look around and wait for someone to come when the alarm goes off. So we leave but ( Read more... )

Today was chaos! Since I learned about the Carnival to be held at school to reward students for coming to all four days of CST testing, I checked the projected weather online daily. I was worried last week since it was projected that there would be rain. Luckily that was not the case. A couple of days ago, it was forecasted that there would be ( Read more... )

Today was a Monday. I called to borrow a TV and DVD player from the library only to find out that I cannot because the TV is not strapped down. I had to rearrange the desks for CST testing tomorrow and dropped a desk on my foot, got hit in the shins and stomach by desks (all by accident), and broke a couple nails. Then students who were supposed to ( Read more... )

I don't want to get too detailed but on my drive home today, I started getting kind of excited. I was thinking of the party I will have my place in July and who would come and so forth. Then I realize that in May, Diana's boyfriend (who I'm not very fond of) is moving back and that she might want to invite him and I start reliving why I don't ( Read more... )

The days are getting to be more of a struggle each day. Although the kids haven't changed much I just don't care to be there anymore. I'm living in June when I'm still finishing off April. It isn't until perhaps around 10am each morning when I start feeling like the day is bearable. Tomorrow we have more testing and it's for math so all I will hear ( Read more... )

I hate myself sometimes. As much as I don't want to admit it, I'm needy. I like to go about and proclaim how independent I am in nearly every aspect of my life. I work and provide for myself, I can go places on my own, I can do an ok job keeping my life together. Is it all a front? I do all these things and at the end of the day, I still want ( Read more... )

I didn't find the books I wanted from the bookstore here. What a bummer. I ate a sushi restaurant by myself... and by 'myself' i meant, I was the only customer. =/ I did go to Pala to celebrate my parents' Anniversary and it was fun getting to bond with my parents. I won 20 bucks and due to a misleading fortune cookie played again with less ( Read more... )
