Hey, so I have a couple questions for all readers out there interested in responding. For both questions I'm just interested in others' viewpoints.
1.) How would you define femininity? Do you see it in the different women you interact with? (This is a question from my bible study that my group has been discussing at length.)
2.) What is your opinion of single sex classrooms? A good idea or a bad one? (I saw this on msn.com today....I personally think it's a good idea, but I want to know what others think.)
Thanks!Current Mood:  cranky |

I feel like I should attempt to provide some kind of update, but at this point that would require too much brain power. I did however successfully finish school (although a day late) on June 22. This past week I did VBS at church with the pre-K group. That was a fun experience. :] Today was day 1 of actual relaxing....I was able to actually sleep and not have to get up to an alarm! So, I woke up at 3pm....who cares!?! :]
Anyway, here's a fun little list that was forwarded to me from a teammate. I especially love numbers 1, 2, 7, 8, and 13.
YOU MIGHT BE EMPLOYED BY A SCHOOL IF...
1. You believe the playground should be equipped with a Ritalin salt lick.
2. You want to slap the next person that says "Must be nice to work 8 to 3:30 and have summers off".
3. You can tell it's a full moon without ever looking outside.
4. You believe "shallow gene pool" should have its own box on the report card.
5. You believe that unspeakable evils will befall you if anyone says "Boy, the kids sure are mellow today".
6. When out in public you feel the urge to snap your fingers at children you do not know and correct their behavior.
7. You have no social life between August and June.
8. Marking all A's on report cards would make your life SO much easier.
9. You think people should be required to get a government permit before being allowed to reproduce.
10. You wonder how some parents ever MANAGED to reproduce.
11. You laugh uncontrollably when people refer to the staff room as the LOUNGE.
12. You encourage an obnoxious parent to check into charter schools or home school.
13. You can't have children because there's no NAME you can give your child that wouldn't bring on HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE the moment you heard it uttered.
14. You think caffeine should be available in an intravenous form.
15. You know you are in for a major project when a parents says "I have a great idea I'd like to discuss. I think it would be such fun".
16. Meeting a child's parent instantly answers the question "WHY IS THIS CHILD LIKE THIS?"Current Mood:  calm Current Music: You Send Me - Shawn Kane |

| You Are Apple Green | 
You are almost super-humanly upbeat. You have a very positive energy that surrounds you.
And while you are happy go lucky, you're also charmingly assertive.
You get what you want, even if you have to persuade those against you to see things your way.
Reflective and thoughtful, you know yourself well - and you know that you want out of life. |

"I need a hobby. Something to pass my time - a goal I can work toward. I've tried knitting, square dancing, social work. I need to have passion about something. Here I am, sitting at my kitchen table, staring at my pancakes and coffee, feeling the emptiness of a life with no meaning.
It's like I'm sitting in a car but the engine is idling. I'm not even on the road - just off to the side. I see the others swoosh by me. I can recognize the shapes of the cars but not the direction they're going. I'm alone, all alone in a car on the side of the road."
"I rent a room and I
Fill the spaces with
Wood in places to
Make it feel like home
But all I feel's alone
It might be a quarter life crisis
Or just the stirring in my soul"
My life seems to be one thing over and over and over again. Monday - wake up, get ready, school, stay until reeaaallllyyyyy late, stop by my parents for dinner (because I'm poor and afraid of my own kitchen), work on school work until the late hours, sleep. Tuesday - wake up, get ready school, stay untill super late, stop by my parents for dinner, work on school work even later than the night before, sleep. And repeat three more times. Saturday and Sunday - sleep and work on school work. How exciting.
I've realized recently, I have to get out of this hole that's burying me alive. There's got to be more than this. I have to leave school way earlier, but what's the use if all I'm going to do is just go home and work on school stuff there for hours on end? I need activities. I need hobbies. I need a purpose.
I looked back to my school days and wondered how I got by then without getting so down. Now I know why Sarah remembers, longs, and cherishes those MWC days. I had things to do. I had places to be. I was needed. I had a purpose. I was at the BSU almost everynight for some activity or another....dinner Tuesday, bible study another night, choir another. There were people to eat with every day. I remember not having enough time for school work, because I was so busy, but it was all okay. How I long for those days again.
Now that I'm "on my own," it soooo much harder to find a place you belong in. There is no BSU across the street. I understand how easy it is for relationships to fall apart because people become workaholics. Work is a safe place...you know what's expected, you know what to do, and it's easy to put hours and hours into it. You surround yourself with your "safe place" (work) and everything else goes out the window. I've turned into a hermit. I don't talk to anyone outside of school. I don't visit anyone. I don't hang out with anyone. Who knows, due to my actions, I may not have any friends outside of school.
Life stinks. But there's *got* to be a way to fix it.
"There's gotta be something more. Gotta be more than this. I need a little less hard time. I need a little more bliss. I'm gonna take my chances. Take a chance I might. Find what I'm looking for. There's gotta be something more."
I despriately need to find my "Purpose Driven Life."Current Mood:  lonely |

 | You scored as Shepherd Derrial Book. The Preacher. Out here, folks need a minister, if only to remind them that God hasn't forgotten them. It isn't about making them worship, it is teaching them to do right by themselves and other people. Why is that so hard for some to understand?
