People in my Life.

It's hard to write.

I think it is hard to keep this up everyday. Someday's are filled with more than others. This week I feel exhausted, my part time job is like a full time job with stress, drama, lies, and all the other stuff that comes with working with the public.  I just want a teaching job, and nothing more. 

Today I will go talk to my boss about my schedule and the changes that are made and how they get there.  People are always lying. will it ever stop?

I hope teaching jobs are posted soon, today I updated my resume, I hope it looks better, I need to work harder on answering the long questions, but I know what I'm trying to say but believe it or not employers do not always understand me. The answers need to be near perfection, show my professional writing skills. I feel like grammar and whatnots probably make a bigger impression then what I am actually saying. Unfortunate. English is a strange language, it is used to communicate, so many dialects, it is always changing, even MLA and APA are always changing. Why should it matter as long as you can communicate. What is perfection?

Beezzzyyy

I have been pretty busy the last few days. We have been preparing for Taun's going away party at the church, after 19 years of service at OCC he is leaving. It is a bitter sweet ending and beginning.  It was a beautiful day and could not have gone any better.  

Doug came to town and we were able to sneak in a mini golf round and tomorrow I will go visit him for Super Bowl Sunday.

I am exhausted and need to plan for Sunday School.

bestie and shopping

I didn't blog yesterday because I was busy and I got home after midnight and it was past "today" But I had a great time with Claire and we painted nails.

Today I went to Spokane to see Oh Snap and it was so wonderful. She drove me all around and we shopped basically for 7 hours. I loved it because we were able to talk, have fun, and laugh.  We even ate fancy hot dogs.  My most favorite thing of all time is we can talk about God and it's so beautiful and real. 

Long day ahead of me tomorrow, Friday, and Saturday....for now a little Harry Potter before bed.

Drama free Monday

After work today I sat to watch Harry Potter but got back up and went to the gym.  Hit my 10,000 steps for the day. Thanks for the cheer fitbit. The problems of wanting a blog and writing everyday is having nothing to write about. It's one of those days.

Falling into Place

I just finished reading the book "Falling into Place" by Amy Zhang.  Man. That was good. Young Adult category. It is hard to explain this book without giving details away.  To start the book never says who the narrator is, I have a few ideas.  It's a remorseful bully, being mean and popular has consumed her. It is hard to not like her. The things she has done are awful but as a reader I still felt for her. The ending is simple but mysterious. I recommend.  Triggers in this book may include eating disorder behaviors and suicidal thoughts. The main character crashes her car on purpose to make it look accidental. If you or someone you know needs help resources are available 1-800-273-talk(8255).   I look forward to more Amy Zhang, as this was her first book.

New makeup

Today I went to several stores to find Covergirl Ultra Smooth makeup, and I found it.  I love it.  It comes with this rubbery applicator and goes on so nice.  I am happy.  Applying makeup with my hands can leave my face feeling dirty, leaves fingers dirty, nail beds dirty and you have to wash a lot off your fingers because it absorbs in your skin. Using brushes and sponges etc also absorbs makeup.  This rubber applicator has no make up left on it when you are done easy to rinse off and have a clean start for next time. 

I played frisbee golf with friends today, what a beautiful winter day. I also am making crock pot lasagna for the first time. Noodles, hamburger and sauce mix, ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, and cottage cheese layers. 

More Harry Potter for the night.

New Beginnings

i"ve been thinking about writing a blog but I do not have a whole lot to say. I decided that it will be somewhat of a journal a place to record my life. I want to keep it up.  Post things I like share my thoughts and ideas, look at others.  Relate to humans.  I am not a great writer my punctuation is not the best. I get on a roll and make up sentence structures my own way.  I am unapologetic to this. While my life is not exciting and I am not doing a whole lot, it is my life, and it is worth living for and I have and will do some pretty great stuff.

 I currently am having my first Harry Potter marathon of 2015.  I recently graduated from Lewis-Clark State College, after six years of studying, with a bachelors degree in Social Science:History and Secondary Education.  I really want nothing more at this point than to get a masters and perhaps a docterite degree. I 100% feel I am capable but I 50% do not think I can afford it. 50% there are always loans. 50% I am drowning in loans as it is now. I was the first in my family to graduate from college and I want to go all the way. Set the future standards high.  Which brings me to the point that as an educator I believe in high standards, kids can and will meet them.  I currently work at a public library. I love the library atmosphere and wouldn't mind getting that masters in Library Science.  The library realm is similar to teaching. I get to research, help, teach, learn, grow, develop, and so much more. I do only work part time though, which means I substitute teach on my days off.  Did I mention I did not get hired as a teacher yet?  Becoming a substitute teacher is one of the most defeating things in my life. I am selfish. I want my own classroom. Own students. Own ideas, lessons, plans, scholars.  I have an amazing boyfriend. He is dreamy, and also a Secondary Education History Teacher.  He does have a teaching job and sometimes I am so jealous, but often I am thankful as he is having to figure it out first.  I am learning from him.

I am currently working on losing weight.  I am trying to be proactive in my life. I am uncomfortable and feel like I am failing.  I am not being humble when I say I am overweight.  I am aware, ashamed, and trying to fix it.  Along with working out and being healthy I want to keep up this blog. Once a day, or several times a day, but none a day should not be an option.
