School...

So my very first semester as a college student has come to a close. I went as well as I could have imagined, except for my political studies class. Government is not my cup of tea. I had 13 credits, all night classes with the exception on my friday morning class and I enjoyed it. However it trained me to be a night owl. I'm blogging at 3:40...that's just plain wrong. I like going to school. I love to learn. My next semester is going to be very different and very challenging for me. I have 16 credits and a lab science course. Here's my schedule...
Sorry if it's hard to read...I'll break it down for ya.
Monday: Biology class 12:45 - 1:45
Biology Lab 2:00 -4:00
Spanish 7:00 - 9:00
Tuesday: Geometry 10:15 - 12:30
Circuit Training 12:45 - 3:00
College Writing 4:30 - 6:45
Wednesday: Biology Class 12:45 - 1:45
Spanish 7:00 - 9:00
Thursday: Geometry 10:15 - 12:30
Circuit Training 12:45 - 3:00
College Writing 4:30 - 6:45
Friday: Biology Class 12:45 - 1:45

See what I'm saying about it being different?
Last semester it was one class a day. Each class one night a week. Condensed classes. This semester is kind of a test. I wanted to do day classes to see if I can handle it both ways. I wanted to figure out what I like best and in what type of class set up I succeed in.

Okay... So I'm sorry about my last post. I started to update it twice and got destracted both times. I'm a pretty good multitasker however Apples to Apples is a little more fun than blogging...ha.

I need to go to bed but I have a funny story to share. I was driving around tonight and I was out on alpine. I was driving to Walmart to pick up my friend Jenn who I brought to Dr. Grins with me tonight. While on my way there I drove past a lot of really bright and distracting store signs but one in particular caught my attention. I tried to get a picture to share with you all but it didn't work out so well while I was going 45 mph down the road. It said "Bed, Bath & Beyo." You may not think that's funny but I couldn't stop laughing at the fact that this store claimed it could provide you with B.O. Haha.

My new office / sewing room...

Given the fact that I now have lots of time on my hands I've decided to make the best of it...
This is what I finished today...



My sewing machine...old yet faithful



My desk and my iMac...love it



Okay...i had to put this up. It's a self portrait of my youngest brother, Eli.
I love the potato wedge eyebrows...



This may look like a disaster but I assure you it is organized chaos...



This is probably my hardest 'in progress' sewing project.
It's a summer dress I was making for my ex-boyfriends graduation from boot camp.
It'll more that likely stay there just like that for a while...



This is a one of a kind.
Eli drew my name for his make gift this past Christmas and knew I needed a spool holder.
This is what was under the tree for me. Can you tell what it is?
For those of you who maybe don't sew...It's a gigantic bobbin.
I know you're jealous...

Encouragement...

I've recently learned a few things that will better my life in the long run...

-be your own best friend
-when you believe in yourself you can do anything
-when things get tough look to the Lord for comfort...

These may seem rather obvious to most of you but it never hurts to be reminded.

I wrote this on Marcia's driveway as a personal reminder of the last one...
