I don't know exactly why I feel compelled to write this note to you, but maybe it has something to with our little encounter this evening. You asked why I never call and I wonder why now. You are a dear friend of mine, and of my brother. You have basically grown up in my house, coming over to play with my brother all these years. I guess I just ( Read more... )

You know how much I hate those moments where you start balling out of no where? Yeah...just had one. Except it was spurred on by a card. As I was sorting through my graduation notes to put them in my box with all my other graduation items, I found the card from my grandpa and grandma. As soon as I saw his name, I lost it. I haven't cried like ( Read more... )

I substitute taught a special-ed preschool class today. I was so nervous going into it but it turned out alright. The aid, Miss Megan, knew what to do so it wasn't hard. I was basically just another hand in the classroom to help out with the students. They were all so adorable. One mentally retarded girl just immediately came up to me and gave ( Read more... )

So Upland gets this massive ice storm on Wednesday...the power flickers for hours...we're all waiting for it to go out for good. Then it goes out in the middle of the night. We wake up, and there is no power at all that day. A group of girls from my wing and myself decide to go home to Indy where we'll be able to shower, use water, eat, and have ( Read more... )

Why do I enjoy bottling things up inside of me? Not telling things how I see them and just keeping them to myself. I wanna tell people about my grandpa and how things are going, but I don't want to burden people with it. I don't want people feeling sorry for me or anything. I mean I just want things to be normal ( Read more... )
