I found out that one of my former students was killed in a hit and run earlier today. My initial reaction: numbness. It didn’t sink in. It didn’t seem real. It had to be a mistake. However it wasn’t. He was 18 years old. He was going to begin his senior year of high school […]
It’s another sleepless night. In order to combat my inner turmoil and strife, I’m here again venting to a computer screen. For the first time in my life, I feel at a crossroads in some really major, significant, life altering ways. It’s strange to just know that whatever decision I make, my life is going […]
I’ll never forget the day I realized that love at first sight really does exist. I was 14 years old and I had just started my freshman year of high school. My last class of the day was on the other side of campus and I realized I’d have to walk fast so I wouldn’t […]
Remember that childhood nursery rhyme that went like this: “_________ and _________ sitting in the tree k-i-s-s-i-n-g. First comes love, then comes marriage then comes ___________ with a baby carriage.” Lately, I’ve noticed a trend among friends, peers, and acquaintances. It seems like the new thing is baby first and lifetime commitment later. Many people […]
I’m so pumped up and on the largest soap box I can find at the moment. Why? It’s all because of these perfectly, gorgeous, beautiful women I know who don’t seem to know just how perfectly, gorgeous, and beautiful they are. Today I worked with a woman who is around my age. I think she’s […]
I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired. Very cliché. Yet, literally true. I want to say that it has just been the last few months that I’ve been feeling this way, but if I’m being completely honest, I’ve felt this way for the last ten years of my life. I keep wanting to […]
Do you know someone who just can’t seem to get their stuff together? They try and fail or either don’t try at all and get no where and make no progress. If you said no and yet, you’re reading this…then congratulations because you just met one of those people. I don’t know why I take […]
When I first found my town home, I knew immediately that it was for me. It just felt right being there. Now if only everything else would click as well as me and my home. My neighbor across the way introduced himself on my inspection day and he seemed nice enough. He gave me all […]
Today was the day I finally fell apart. I pushed myself for almost two months and it has finally caught up with me. Today I had an emotional breakdown. I went to work tired and stressed over midterms, quizzes, and papers due next week. I didn’t get any sleep. The words of my crazy neighbor […]
A lot of interesting things have been happening lately. I really want to write a post about them, but between work, school, and studying I have no time to dedicate to blogging like I used to. Then when I take a moment to breathe, like I’m doing right now, I forget about most of what […]
