forward motion

this week is just creeping on by. It is ONLY tuesday. And ONLY noon. Gosh. Two sentences in and I am already being a whiney baby. I apologize. I am in my first class of the day and I finally gave up on taking notes because it is so very boring to me. I have not touched on this before, but school is my very least favorite thing. I do not like going, I do not like being in class, and I do not like homework. Oh yes, and I don't like tests. I have never been a school-lover. I have always gotten by and was even veryyyy good at school for a large portion of my life. But not this portion. Much to my dismay.. and Jan and Scott's dismay. I will keep trying though. In December this schooling chapter of my life will close forever! That is until I get a teaching job.. ha!
For weeks like this I find it necessary to focus on the GOOD stuff- the stuff to look forward to. I know, I know. Live in the present. Well I am living! And blogging! But I don't see any harm in getting a little excited for the days to come...
looking forward to...
1. being finished with my papers

2. my friend's ring dunk

3. EASTER- I love Easter. I love Easter clothes. I love Easter eggs. Always have, always will. Duh. The church we go to with my family in Austin is a little bit out there.. but hey. What can you do?

these are eggstra beautiful.. I better start practicing.

4. Glee returning to television. I still have a little less than a month (21 days to be exact) until my favorite group of twenty-something year olds sing and dance their way back into my life!! Can't wait.

5. Spending some time in the sunshine. It is going to be warm this week and I am going to lay in the park. I just have to. I like being tan and I like feeling the sun on my pastey skin. Wanna join me? You guys probably should.

6. Tomorrow night- this probably should have been earlier on the list.. but this list has no particular order. The bible study gang is re-uniting and I can't wait. Shroom time with Megsy. Ah, how sweet it is. Speaking of Megsy, she wrote a great blog post about God and dogs. I love it so much. Here is sweet Megan.. she is so dang cute.

7. I look forward to finishing Carson Leslie's book, Carry Me.. He writes about his battle with cancer and gives such a real testament of a young person battling with big disease. If you have time, check out his story here.

8. Reading Laura Daniel's new BLOG! It's a blog-eat-blog world our there, Laura, and I am so happy to read what you have to say and for others to be able to read, too!

That is all I can think of for right now. I am now in another history class listening to another boring teacher. Ohhhh poor me :)

Bye, say bye!!
