(this is the start of my attempt to post regularly.)

a few things i appreciate about life:
people can't fake it forever.
also,
you can't force things.

{thank goodness.}

love.love.love.

goodnight.

i'm gonna be a team player...

This week I'm working at VBS and I love it!! Everyday the songs we sing get stuck in my head. Tonight it's "Team Player" (yeah yeah yeah...). I'm leading the 5th graders. I have the worst acting group of kids at the whole thing, but I absolutely love them. I didn't know I had the discipline skills and the teacher voice that I've discovered within me this week. I guess that's a good thing since I'm about to start grad school for teaching.

Something I've heard all along, but have really grasped this month (having my last two weeks at francesca's and then having the crazy 5th graders this week) is that the attitude and kind of day you are going to have truly is your choice. I've been amazed at how quickly my attitude can change (hopefully for the better). Now, I wonder why it took me so long to realize this. I also hope that I continue to utilize this new knowledge I've stumbled upon.

Speaking of francesca's, if any of you have heard of the midtowne armed robberies and are wondering...yes, I was still working there. And yes, I was working both days that the two robberies occured. Needless to say I had never been so excited to be quitting a job...armed robbery...gun point...hold up...all these things freak me out. I would probably just pass out...and pray on my way to unconciousness.

On a lighter note, this past weekend Krystal came down to visit. I looooove this girl. and I miss her. This is what happened most of the weekend:

1.) lots of drinking of the Grapette.

2.) lots of laughing.

goodnight.

P.S. - Last night I had a double-header in church softball. We won both games! Today my right leg is sore...I dont know why it's only my right, and not my left leg too. Weird.

sunshine and blue skies, baby.

so...after re-reading my post below. i apologize to anyone who actually read it. i realize that i'm a complete nerd. and i accept that. with open arms, actually.

June 15th is my last day to be employeed at Francesca's Collections. I have to admit, I'll miss the discount and the good times that were had with fellow employees. But that's all.

I got accepted into the UCA MAT program...so I guess I really am going to be a high school teacher, yay! Maybe I'm on the road to be a school counselor like I wanted to when I was younger after all...

a few things i've really been loving lately:
-andrew bird.
-cheesecake.
-perfumeria gal lip balm (strawberry).
-m.ward.
-sally hansen natural shine instant nail finish.
-genesis.
-the moon.
-grapette.
-motown.
-sunshine and blue skies, baby.


i guess that's enough for now.
