  • Extreme Makeover: Life Edition

    So lately I have been watching and in turn falling back in love with Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. For those who have not seen the show, a family gets nominated or applies for their house to be redone. There is always a story that goes behind why they want their house redone. One of the ones I watched recently was the dad had cancer and passed away before Ty (whom I love by the way) and the crew could come and fix his house. Ty called the dad while he was in the hospital to say they were coming to fix their house, and 3 months later passed away.

    Anyways, the show goes like this. The crew comes to the family’s house and gives them a new house, and a new start, in one week. The family goes on vacation, leaving their old house that is falling apart behind and come home to a new, improved home. It is an amazing show.

    I want the same thing for my entire life right now. I want a crew to come to me, send my mind on a mental vacation for a week, fix me up and improve me, and then I will come back and have a new, improved everything.

    I am in such a rut and I don’t know how to get out of it anymore. Everything about me equals rut. I wear my hair the same, I wear the same clothes, and I do the same thing every day. I feel like I have been doing nothing with my life, and it has been going on long enough.

    I just want to have my extreme makeover.

  • Well I haven't updated in a while.

    A few things happened since last time I was on here. 

    July 1st my Grandma passed away.  It was and has been hard for me to deal with.  I'm doing ok.  It still gets to me randomly, and its hard coming home and having her not be there waiting for me.  She is not suffering and she is in better hands now.

    I still don't have a job.  Obviously, other things this summer took up my time, but now the school year is almost here and I don't have a job.  I am looking to sub at different school districts just as a start for this year. 

    I think thats about it for now.

  • I graduate on Saturday!  I am super excited and so nervous.  I am still looking for a job, so if anyone knows any teaching positions, let me know!

  • Today is my grandma's birthday.  I feel bad that I am not sitting at home with her right now. 

    I only have 10 more days left of student teaching.  I am so happy it is almost over, but I am going to really miss my students.  My cooperating teacher and I have been slowly breaking the news to them, and some of them are very sad about it all.  But I think there may be some that are happy I am almost out of there... haha.  I learned a lot about myself and about teaching while I was there, and it really helped me see that I actually want to be a teacher still, even though all the crap that I have been through.

    I graduate in 20 days.  I don't know if I am prepared for that yet.  I have a lot of stuff to do, and I hope I make it. 

    I am stressed beyond belief about the rest of the semester both with school and also with my grandma.  Her health is slowly failing and I don't know how much more of this I can take.

  • It has been a while since I last posted.

    I have been pretty busy with student teaching.  I am on Spring Break, and I have enjoyed it so far.  I am officially going to be a server at Outback.  I am freaking out. haha.  Today I started some of my training, and I felt overwhelmed, but I think it will be ok.  I am going to make more money with serving, which is something I need, desperately. :o)  haha.

    I have been working like crazy, which is good.  I need to get some money. 

    I can't believe that I am going to graduate in May.  I still don't completely believe that it will happen... but I am excited for it. 

    Well, thats all I really got... laters!
