| You know, since 5 months ago. Time flies. I guess I'll do a list, then.
1) Work. Last I checked this xanga, I left Babies R Us, thank god. I stuck out 8 months of my life in that place, but at least I had money and was able to pay for things on my own. Since then, I worked at a chiropractor's office for about 4 months. It was nice. I learned how to rake leaves and shovel snow there though. (I totally forgot how to shovel snow since I left that place.) Currently I am jobless and broke. Good stuff.
2) School. I finally registered for school! I'm not going for Early Childhood Education anymore, though. Yes, I'd still absolutely love to care for kids for a living and teach them all these new things, but things change. Like this economy. Because of that, the Department of Education put a freeze on all teaching jobs and the like, thus, going into that long-term probably wouldn't get me that far soon enough. So, I gave in to my mom's wishes, after so many attempts to change her mind, and picked a new major. Medical Assisting. That's right, you read it, Medical Assisting. I guess I liked doing that so much at the chiropractor's office that I decided to learn what they actually do. I never thought I'd get into the medical field, at all. If for anything, I wanted to be a psychologist, considering all of the therapy I've had throughout my life, plus, I find it interesting. And it is hard. Medical Terminology. Anatomy & Physiology. Well, those are my two hardest classes out of all 6. Yes, you read that right again, 6 classes. I was sure I wouldn't be able to handle more than two at a time. I was so scared when I found out that I had to take 6 classes this semester. Plus there's a shit ton of stuff to learn that seems so crazy to me. Like the spelling of these medical terms. Like, wtf?! For example, thrombophlebitis. Does that even look like a word to you? Well it is and it means blood clot. THAT'S IT. That long obnoxious word replaces a two word condition. But whatevs, it's still interesting, learning about all of these parts of the body. And the last time I went to see a doctor, I was able to understand some of the stuff she was saying! Well, that was in the emergency room, but that's a whole other story altogether. I'm getting really good grades in my classes too! High 80s and low 90s. Didn't see that coming. Yay me, I guess.
3) Frank. Yes, I am still with him. We've now been together for a year and 5 months. Again, time flies. It has been so comfortable. We've had a few spats here and there but we're doing well and still really love each other to bits. "With lilies..." There's, of course, a lot more but I feel like I typed so much that that could wait for another time.
I love and miss all of you!
