Loser.

So I feel like a loser. I'm not sure exactly why. I am full of way too many emotions. One thing is that I need to move out. I've made plans- May 10th. I'll get my nice new apartment (with a washer/dryer) to myself! I have all my living room and dining room furniture picked out. And a new TV. I'm going to get a sofa, a sofa bed, a sofa-chair, cool TV stand, coffee table, and kitchen table/chairs! I'm still going to be completely out of debt in a year!!! May 10th isn't soon enough. I love my roommate, but she's not the easiest to live with. No need to go into details. I just deal with it. Until now, hence I'm moving out.

The days I don't work in the evenings I always nap. I think that's bad. But that's all my body wants. And it's not like I'm super social during the week. I went to FHE last night, and besides talking to Jacob, it was pointless to drive that far. Nobody, except Jacob and John, cared I was even there. True friends. I'd rather be in bed.

And my students. I really lack respect from my class of boys. They do everything that's annoying possible. From farting, rude comments, stealing diet coke from my mini-fridge, adding too much food to the fishbowl, and MORE obnoxious comments. Not fun. I have like no control over them. Nor my chem chommers, but we have less to worry about content-wise and I like those delinquents.

What am I doing?

Spring Break= Spring Stress

Last week was spring break. It was not a break. Babin's had me clocked in over 50 hours. I was miserable come the end of the week...all my energy socked out of me. I'm beginning to loathe that place. We were so stinking busy the later part of the week, and working 15 hour shifts with NO break, just killed me. And I couldn't get out of it. They needed all of us. Well, okay, so tears one day got me to go home early... Man. Do you all have any suggestions on what job I could get for the 10-11 weeks of summer? I DO NOT want to do this all summer. I'm not sure the money is even worth it. Not my idea of a break. I had Wednesday and Sunday off.

So if I wasn't at Babin's working my little tail off, I was probably with Jonathan, my neighbor. He's great company. We went to a car show (he loves cars...), and did other fun stuff. Yesterday was Easter, so I invited him to come to Church with me. He enjoyed it (I think!)...and I made a pot roast for dinner (it was SO yummy!) Who knew I could cook. :) I also wore my new easter dress...which I got a Macy's in the KIDS section! yes, a size 16 kids dress fit me perfectly... It was white with big pink and orage polka dots on it and a poofy underskirt. I wore it with my pink easter-style hat. Super cute. :) Plus I was a happy I fit into a kids size! ;) I, uh, keep losing weight, probably from running around at Babin's and not eating. Pants I just got now are too big.

Today is Monday, and I'm back at school. I am SO grateful to be a teacher and to do what I do. I am excited to be back and see my kiddos. I hope they had fun spring breaks! At least more fun than mine!

Leslie is gone again this week. Her little brother is leaving on his mission on Wednesday to Sweden so she went home. Poor thing is so stressed out (family, work, family, work...) and sometimes I get the blunt of it.

Another week...sigh...chao.

The Boy Next Door...

First, it's spring break. So last week, needless to say, was crazy! Friday- the day before break, I seriously couldn't get my kiddos to do anything. They were crazy. I just gave up after a half hour. But we have SO much to cover and they have a 9 weeks Exam the week after spring break...it's insane. My patience was tried last week at school, that's for sure. Mud story- I got my car stuck in the mud parking at work (we have to park 1/2 a mile away!) so I was totally stuck. Then miraculously this big black truck with tow equipment pulled up and got me out, without me even having to ask! Amazing. I was out in 2 minutes! Whew. Somebody up there loves me. :)

But this spring break isn't looking to 'break-ish'...I'm logged in for over 50 hours at Babin's this week. I have Wednesday and Sunday off and also Saturday day. Other than that I'm working 10-12 hour shifts. YIKES! That's no fun. Especially when I really really want a social life- which I had a great one last week. Let me tell.

Miss Restroom Monitor Goes Clubbing

My life continues to be crazy. But a good crazy. My roommate was pretty sick for a week or so and now it's my turn to have it do its course. Right now, besides being tired, I have a sore throat and a stuffy nose. But I've been pumping Vitamin C, airborne, and other stuff, and Vicadin (oh that's for my foot, haha). My foot is healing!! It's neat to see how it heals. I am back in regular shoes again. It just hurts sometimes. Like this morning. I've been on it a lot this week. Waitressing was especially hurtful for my foot. And it was a really lame week (not much business...which means not much money) and there's a mean manager. I'm glad that isn't my main source of income or work in general!!!

On Tuesday I had a date with five boys. Not really, but I was the only girl. We went out to Joe's Crab Shack and then rode the rollercoaster in Kemah. I rode it! It was very jerky- a fast wooden rollercoaster. The pictures are cute.

So Leslie has had a Dow training up in Houston (about an hour away). She's got a hotel and everything for the two weeks. So I've had the apartment to myself. It's been quite nice! I've been toying with the idea of getting my own apartment...I think I will this summer. That'd be a good time to move. And it'd be to a complex just down the street. I'm accumulating kitchenwares. It's exciting. I'm going with a red theme. Anyways, I have missed Leslie- we always talk to much! So last night (Saturday) I got off work about 5:30 or so and went up to go hang out with her and her Dow peoples! We went to a club! It was actually quite fun! Obviously, we didn't drink, but we sure danced and had a good time. And we both crashed when we got back to her hotel room. She's still sick! What a fun time, though!

State testing. TAKS. Pain in the butt. I was a "restroom monitor" on Wednesday from 7 to 1. Which means I just sit outside the girls' restroom, only let one go at a time, and listen to them pee all day. Testing took forever! I read a lot in my Sleep book but I got so bored of reading after awhile!

Hence another week. Hopefully I won't get more sick. Love you all. Peace out.
