The way this accident is affecting me is so different from the others and it's really bugging me. Obviously, the fact that there were serious injuries is driving me mad. I have no way of finding out if the woman just slipped a disc or if she's paralyzed or anything about the extent of the injuries. I'm assuming the worst right now because I don' ( Read more... )

Does anyone even bother reading this anymore? I know I haven't been updating really at all this year. I'll have to be better about this. Since I'm off campus now, it's even more important to keep y'all updated on stuff. So here's an update ( Read more... )

I'm 22. I'm going to be a godmother in June. My little sister is going to college. My mother keeps dropping hints about wanting me to settle down in Rhode Island. One of my roommates got married. I'm losing sleep over things like dental insurance and checking accounts. Not much longer now until I start looking at walkers. I want a purple one ( Read more... )

OK, back at school now. I missed my first Vocal Performance class. I could swear it was on Wednesdays. Apparently it's on Tuesdays. Gosh darnit. So now I have to wait another week to see how it goes. I'm kinda nervous. I've never sung outside of a choir setting before. Went back to McAuley yesterday. It's gonna be a semester of crazy ( Read more... )

Hmmm, it's been awhile, hasn't it? Whoops. My bad. So here's the update: I'm applying to Lutheran Volunteer Corps. Not sure where I want to be placed yet, but I'm particularly interested in the San Francisco area. It's experiencing something new, but I also have an aunt in the area which would help with the transition a bit. There's a great ( Read more... )

So a certain chemistry/biology/whatever-y major has been complaining about my not updating my journal so here we go ( Read more... )

I'm starting to realize that despite all of my dreams, aspirations and ambitions, my lack of action is showing that I'm really insecure about my future. I have a vague outline of my life after graduation: service work for a year or two, grad school, job in a women's rights-oriented field. Yet I haven't really done much to move toward these goals ( Read more... )

I'm pretty much settled into the little blue cottage by the lake now. I LOVE having the dock!! I've made a habit of starting the day with some time on the dock to just chill and hang out with the ducks. This morning I was eating my breakfast on the picnic table and heard the people a few doors down start up their seaplane!! I got to watch it ( Read more... )

I'm sorry it's taken me so long to update. This darn computer is chunkier than peanut butter and the Norton Antivirus thing my dad installed is making it worse, or so I believe. Because I said so. So there. It won't let me navigate away from the homepage, I have to click links off my favorites list to get anywhere. It's getting rather irksome ( Read more... )

So the search for a second job has been fruitless so far. With the crazy schedule that Kidz 'n the Kitchen gave me (which doesn't give nearly enough hours), I wasn't able to get anyone to hire me because my schedule was just all over the map. So I had to cut my Kidz schedule way down to just Saturdays 10-4. Even so, I couldn't get the jewelry ( Read more... )
