... go figure ....

So here I am, in the library, I grabbed the last table with a comfy chair (like one from a living room... comfy like a couch!!)... I knew I packed all of my text books, extra paper, pens, my clipboard, my phone charger (phone was dying), enough snacks to last until the library closes... what did I forget?! My binder - with all of my notes... I can study out of the text books for now, and use my notes tonight or tomorrow.

My computer automatically signs into MSN for me, and one of my best friend's little brothers is online. I love the kid like he's my own little brother, I have lived 8-10 hours away from them forever, but I have watched him grow from a tiny scrawny 6 year old to a scrawny eleventh grader... Might I add a world class fencer?! Not world class yet, but I have no doubts that he will make it to the Olympics one day, he is already competing with people beyond his age division. He and I talked about how he was trying out for the Arctic Games, and I knew he'd make it, but he had some doubts - we had a little pep talk and I think he felt better. I talked to his sister a couple weeks ago, and she was up north visiting her family and she told me that he made the cut - he is going to be competing! And I was beyond thrilled, excited and proud of the little guy!! I texted him a bit on his sisters phone and let him know how I felt. He said he was surprised I cared! I reassured him that I care for him like he was my own brother. Anyway we're chatting now about the games! I am sooo excited for him, and I hope that his sister decides to head up north to watch him compete because if she does, I would kill to tag along and cheer him on!!!

That was my exciting news! Oh I have a bit more - I have a babysitting job - that I hope will make me tons and tons of money! I have a couple other intersted families too, hopefully they will call soon!! I could really use the extra money!

Ok - now to go study Math (which I totally understand the two concepts we will be tested on them, but there are parts I would never be able to teach to a class of elementary students... out instructor doesn't understand that... oooh well as long as I pass the class!!), Educational Psychology and Spanish!!! AND read Hamlet (again, for the third time!!), unfortunately for me, I have forgotten everything about Hamlet... grr... I am considering buying the sparknotes and reading them....
