Do you have a "job" or a "career"?

I really love it when I meet a person, young or old, who actually enjoys their job. To them, it's a career, something they look forward to doing each day, even if they get tired or irritated or the money isn't as good as they might like. While talking to my student advisor a couple days ago at... Sign in to see full entry.

Sergeant Sam

I have survived yet another week of school. Well, at least another Thursday and Friday. I'll admit it--I'm a nerd who enjoys school. It keeps me out of the house and gives my dorky "I MUST LEARN" alter ego her fix. I especially like my child education class, since I get to peer tutor Thursdays and... Sign in to see full entry.

Calling all coffee drinkers...

My english class is basically comprised of three parts--read a book/essay/short story, discuss it in class, then write about it. It sounds boring, but the discussion part really isn't. Anyway, as part of our talks, we often get slightly off-subject, discussing other things and bringing in all kinds... Sign in to see full entry.

Is standing up for yourself such a bad thing?

There are some people in this world that I cannot put up with for anything. Well, not for long, anyway. You know those people; we've all got our pet peeves. The one type of person I really hate dealing with are those that are SO stupid, rude, immature, unfair, etc., etc. that the only way you can... Sign in to see full entry.

Once again, I find irony in my dependance on technology...

Convenience is inconvenient. Well, for me, at the moment, it is. I had a lot of free time to myself over my summer vacation three months ago, so I had a lot of time to do some organizing, cleaning, and other such useless stuff. My big entertainer for about a week was the cool features on the new... Sign in to see full entry.

Beware...

As a high school student, I've know EXACTLY why people pity my teachers. If I had to teach me, I would want to be pitied, too. Especially if I was my English teacher. Honestly, Ms. Perry is a really good teacher. She's stringent on grading, but I like the class and everything is so much more... Sign in to see full entry.

Try not to worry...

I've learned a lot about what fear is in the last 16 and a half years. Sadly, 90% of my knowledge isn't a "learn from the mistakes of others" kinda thing, but more of a personal experience thing. It takes a lot to overcome fears. More strength than ANY human has, so really, I don't think anyone... Sign in to see full entry.

Damn Felines

Oh, the joys of having cats. I mean, their such generous, loving animals, who wouldn't want one? Last night at around 2am, I woke up after feeling my sister's cat, Midnight, jump onto my bed and then run off. Rolling over to get more comfortable, I felt something rather small and furry lying next to... Sign in to see full entry.

Life on hold

I love rainy days. Well, for the most part. Rainy weekend days are the days that no one cares if I mope around in my pajamas and houseshoes until 2am any nobody cares. I can spend all day being an internet junkie sitting in the armchair with my comforter, and nobody cares. For me, rainy days are... Sign in to see full entry.

Why we're not having green beans for dinner

Why? Because my canner opener is a royal piece of crap! And my brothers decide to raise their hands when I mutter, "Who likes green beans anyway?!" as throw away the half-mutilated can. Ahh, life. Sign in to see full entry.
