So I think I'm going to actually attempt to BLOG today. Weeeeird.
Yeah, so, I haven't really written anything in awhile. I feel like nothing interesting and blog-worthy has happened (which is utter nonsense) and also I really just ... forgot.
But right now, I'm in the mood to write something, so here I am.
I'm drinking a latte out of a large cup, and that makes me happy.
The forecast for Monday is snow, and that makes me unhappy. Getting to my evening class in snow is not going to be very fun. And I don't want to miss it.
It's now February. Which I almost can't believe. But I am very thankful as well, because this past year had been a long and hard one. It's had it's very good times, but it's had much more bad times then usual. Part of it, I think, is the fact that I put off going to school for a year, and that's always hard. I believe I made the right choice to take a year off after highschool, and save, so I don't have to go into debt, or stop school, but that fact doesn't make it any easier to wait. I love the kids I nanny, and I love my family, but when you're in the "waiting" stage of life, it feels like limbo, and it's just not very fun.
I have a lot of things to do before I can get into school, and so today I'm going to work on them. First thing, is achieving my GED. Homeschooling was good for me in a lot of ways, but not so good in the diploma area. If I was going to a conventional college, I could take the SATs and placement tests, and it wouldn't really matter. But since I'm going to a Beauty School, I need a "government approved" diploma, which I don't have. So off to earn my GED I go. I'm terrified that I will fail the math portion, however, and then I won't be able to go to school. I would be so upset if math ruined my life.

Just kidding. So anyway, I've been putting off getting it, which is stupid, but now it's time. It's time to get my rear end in gear and start working for my dreams, because they don't just come on their own.
So that's what's going on with me. Working, dealing with a lot of family stuff, getting thru each day, acheiving GED, applying for school, getting into school, finishing work, and attending school. I wanted to get a second job, because I'm only working about 20 hours a week, but it isn't workin out so well. Unfortunately for me, nobody seems to be hiring.
Sigh.
