Thoughts of School

Well, as far as kids go, summer is in FULL swing! As far as mosquitos go, summer sucks! (literally).

I've been out of school for one month and 13 days and I can't believe how much I'm missing it. I sit here everyday and look at the college website, thinking about my classes for the fall. (Aug. 29th to be exact). I was very excited the day before yesterday after I got the mail. I got a card from Delta congratulating me for making it on the Vice President's List....I was very excited about that considering that I did rather bad in one of my classes. I am however struggling with the idea of taking another math class this fall. I looked a little more closely at the requirements paper for an Associates in the Arts degree and was VERY saddened to see that I have to have 2 math credits and the math that I just took this last semester doesn't meet the requirement. *sigh* I really hate math! It looks as though I'm going to have to miss one semester of Sign Language, that really bums me out, I'm afraid that I'm going to forget so much, I know that I've already forgotten a lot of little signs since I've been out of school. This isn't my choice by the way for not taking ASL 3 (American Sign Language 3), it just happens that not enough people took ASL 2 to warrant a section 3. It looks like there's more than enough people taking it this summer that they'll offer it in the winter semester. At least I hope so!!!!!!!! I guess I'll be taking Spanish, Child Psychology, a Nutrition class and Algebra(blech!!). I really can't wait to get into the Child Psych class, I really enjoyed my last Psych class. I think in the winter semester that I'll take Abnormal Psych, that should be REALLY interesting! I would highly recommend for anyone in college to try to take a Sociology class too, they're quite fun and a lot of what you do in there is reflected in Psych, helped a lot!

OK...Tuesday night was quite enjoyable, I went out at 7 pm and started a fire in hopes that some people would show up for S'mores and hotdogs later on. Well, people showed up and it was wonderful! I have to admit that next time I am going to have to put my foot down and be sure that Christen and Dominic will HAVE to be in the house NO later than 9:30 - 10. I know they like to have fun and with so many people around it's hard to not get a little excited, but a bunch of teenagers don't like to have little kids around. I just hope that my presence wasn't too imposing. The game of hide and seek tag in the dark was REALLY fun! Ben and the boys have been playing this game for a few years now and I've always abstained from participating. HOWEVER, Tuesday night I had the opportunity to play and so with the "Deathgrip" on my hand, I went bravely out into the woods to try to find the other group. After everyone was found it was our turn to hide. I teamed up with Emily and her friend Brandi. We quickly went into the woods and alond the ditchbank. Now, did any of you realize that crab apple trees have thorns? This is one thing that I DID know, but, in the pitch of darkness, this fact becomes a little blind, especially when you didn't know that there was a happy little youthful crab apple tree growing, and it was FULL of thorns! My leg still has the evidence of this. I'm happy to say though, that I beat the youthful "seekers" back to the safe spot of the porch!!!! I AM PARENTAL UNIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol. I can't wait until the next bon-fire!

I do believe that I'm going to leave this blog now, it's already quite long. I do believe also that a trip to Wally World is on the agenda for today. I have a few things that I have to purchase yet for my trip to Tampa, which btw, I leave for in 6 days, WOO HOOOOO!!!!!!

Y'all take care,
Love ya :)
