Day 13

I feel really bad that I have waited so long to write again.

It has been a crazy couple weeks and I have a feeling it will stay that way until this semester is over.

I could use a break from homework but even when I don't have class, I still have homework to be working on. I have notecards due tomorrow for my research paper. I am stressed about keeping my grades up. I have so many things that I want to do at home and I don't have time to do any of them. It is driving me crazy.

I am at work right now. I am thankful to have two jobs, but even they stress me out.

I am so ready to graduate from college so I can be a teacher and start making a difference. It is only 3 1/2 semesters until then. I just have to keep reminding myself of that.

Have a great week.

Later.

Day 12

Hello.

I am doing homework. Who would have thought?

I am currently working on Advanced Composition grammar worksheets. I need to be working on my issue memoir that is due on Tuesday.

Why is there never enough time to get things done?

I had planned on riding a horse this afternoon so I can start getting ready for next (and final) ranch sorting. I have been announcing them but I really want to ride in at least the last one.

We had a really good church service this morning. Bro. Ashley did such a good job delivering God's message. It was on Jesus' interviews with the handicapped, hate and hung. It was great.

I must get back to work on homework so I can finish cooking lunch and get ready for church when the time comes.

Have a great week.

Later.

Day 11

Hey.

I am terrible. I am just now finding time to write again.

I only have two classes tomorrow so I am not in a huge rush to get to bed. Dr. Tebbetts will be in meetings tomorrow so that eliminated two classes for tomorrow. I hate to say it but I am not complaining. It will be nice.

I went back to Cave City to observe today. I feel like I got a lot accomplished. I really like my mentor teacher. I wish she was at Batesville so I could have her for Practicum and Internship.

I have several books that I need to read in the next week so I can write a couple book reports that are needing to be completed.

Two seem interesting but two don't really grab my interest.

Hope you all have a great weekend.

I know I will.

Later.

Day 10

Hey.

I am officially done with midterms.

Thank goodness.

They went decently. I am only worried about European History. It was difficult for me. There were too many facts to remember.

I am so ready for Thanksgiving break. It is only a little over a month away.

I don't have class tomorrow. I am so thankful.

I am hopefully going to be able to get some things done. I have a horse I need to ride. I have had several people call me about her. I need to get her and the goats sold for next semester extras.

I hope everyone has a great week.

Later.

Day 9

Hey, everyone.

Hope you all are having a great weekend.

I worked most of the day yesterday. I really enjoyed being back in the classroom. I had missed the kids.

I had to work today at the clothing store. It was a long day. My knee and hip are really bothering me today. My knee feels swollen.

I worked one of my horses today. She left me pretty worn out. She was not sure how to act in the round pen. I am hoping to have her traded off pretty soon to get something that I can work with.

I only have one more day of break left. I am worried about my History midterm. There is so much to remember.

I am going to Karla's house tonight. Me and John and her are going to hang out and watch movies and eat pizza. I am glad because we haven't been together in a while.

Have a great weekend.

Later.

Day 8

Hey, everyone.

Today is my first day of Fall Break. Thank goodness.

I went to the doctor this morning. He said I was still kicking. That's nice to know.

I am subbing tomorrow. I am excited because I have so busy with school that I haven't hardly had time to go see the kids this semester.

I have two Midterms on Monday, Advanced Comp and European History. I have one on Tuesday, Education and Culture. I am ready for next week to be over with and get back to a normal schedule. Ha ha ha, like there is such a thing.

I am going to have to guarantee myself something, though. Tomorrow when I get off work, I am going home and riding my horse. I will actually have time so I am going to do it.

I hope everyone has a great weekend. No telling when I will talk again, since I am trying to "relax."

Later.

Day 7

This is a chestnut Quarter Horse filly that I just weaned. She is out of my bay roan Quarter Horse stallion and a palomino Quarter Horse mare. She seems to be very athletic right now, so I am excited about watching her grow up.

School is overwhelming right now. I am so ready for Thursday when I get to sleep in and don't have to hurry to school. Fall break is a great idea. all schools should try this.

Have a great week.

Later.

Day 6

Good Morning.

I had to work and baby-sit last night so I am a day behind.

I got my Brit Lit paper back on Friday. I made a 70 for content but I got a 60 because he said it was too "wordy" so I have to do some alterations and turn it back in to get my 70.

I took my American Lit midterm Friday. I thought I did pretty good on my paper but I had some problems on the Identification part of the test. I froze up and forgot a couple authors and facts. I can just hope that I did ok on the ones I did answer.

I only have three days of class this week. I don't think I have any midterms this week. I think they are all the next week, hopefully.

I am working on fence this afternoon. I need to let my fillies out of their lots so me and dad are working on fence when we get home from church.

Hope you have a great and blessed Sunday.

Later.

Day 5

It's that time of the week again. Time to blog.

I am at work and it is pretty slow so I am going to go ahead and do this.

Tomorrow I take my first midterm at Lyon College for American Lit 2. I have to turn in a 1200 word analytical paper over The Age of Innocence. I also have to take a written test over identification. Throughout the last couple weeks we have taken lots of notes over a variety of things, all relating to American Literature. We now have to have all of that memorized. I am worried. I have a good start on my paper but I am worried about being able to call back on the information that I hope to have stored in my brain.

I am excited about tomorrow night though. I am going back to the Ranch Sorting at the Arkansas Sheriffs Youth Ranch. I went two weeks ago and announced part of the show and they asked me to come back this time and announce the entire show. Uncle David is supposed to have a horse there for me to ride around before the sorting gets started because I will be up there for several hours and that does get boring.

Next Thursday and Friday I have Fall Break. Two entire days of zero classes. It will be so nice to sleep in. I haven't done that since I started school in August. I only have to work until 7:00. Then I get to go home and finish all my homework that I don't get done with here.

Have a great weekend.

Later.
