Time

"Time passes; people move, like a river's flow, it never ends." -Sheik, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

It really doesn't. I feel like I haven't stopped moving since school started and just recently everything feels like it's moving so quickly. It's already October and I'm exhausted. There are just too many things going on, and I just want to stop to catch my breath.

I know I've whined here a lot lately about being stressed out... I know that this busy-ness probably isn't going to get any better--will probably get worse--so it's no use complaining about it.

I was just in need of a good vent.

Sugar <3

I've had a rough last couple of days emotionally. I've been having a tough time because I'm worried that I won't be able to afford the college I really want to attend, and I've been having doubts that I'll be able to teach once I graduate. I've wanted to be a teacher since I was little, so it was upsetting to have to look at my dreams realisitcally and see if teaching was something I could do. I substitute taught on Friday and the kids I taught thought I was mean--and the older girls I teach dance to think I'm too tough as well. So I was disheartened, and I've been really upset about it the last couple of day--kind of praying for a sign that I'm on the right track with this whole teaching thing.

My sign came in the form of a sugar cookie. With strawberry icing.

One of the 3 year olds I teach dance to ran up to me today before class, brandishing this cookie. She handed it to me and smiled. I, having never recieved a gift from a student before, was dumbstruck and stupidly asked, "Is this for me?" "Yeah," she replied and then smiled again, "it has strawberry icing." "I love strawberry," I replied trying not to get choked up over a little cookie that I saw as my sign that I am doing something right.

But it just goes to show, everybody needs a little sugar once in a while. :)

College Stuff.

So...I just got accepted by one of the colleges I applied to. This happens to be the college that offered me a scholarship that will cover more than half of the tuition. And I just got my acceptance letter.

Holy cow.

I'm just a little overwhelmed. Dang.

[facepalm]

I just made cupcakes.

I need to make myself dinner and haul my butt over to work.

And I'm super bored. Don't know why I felt the need to type this. Maybe it was to pass the time...

"I love you, in a atta-girl sorta way."

[/Bones]

I watched the new episode in study hall because I was at dance last night. Booth made me cry. THEY NEED TO GET TOGETHER. THEY LOVE EACH OTHER. RAWR.

And now for something completely differnet. My dad left for the Kyrgyz Republic this morning. He's on a missions trip there and will be gone for 10 days, so keep him in your prayers or thoughts if you're not religious.

My life is boring, so I really have nothing else to say...
