some stuff

The weighted blanket I ordered should come any day now. I really hope it works as lately I am having much trouble sleeping. My online courses are going well! I don't know why I just couldn't do all my school from online...There isn't much going on, other than some redecorating. My room will have a beach theme...and I will paint over those horrid yellow walls finally. The most exciting event lately has been my assembly of a cabinet with drawers for the bathroom. I needed a place to keep my stuff organized and off of the bathroom sink area. It took me a little while, but I have my own methods of putting things together. I don't know what is more fun...taking things apart and THEN putting them back together probably.

I hope everyone has a Happy Memorial Day. Let us remember all who have served for us, especially those who have given their life, as "there is no greater gift than to lie down one's life for a friend."

Another Update

Once again I have neglected my blog. Anyway, online classes are going well. 2nd lab class tomorrow night. I am going for 2 taekwondo belts this testing so that I will get my black belt recommended at the end of June. My birthday is coming up too...not sure how I feel about that. I am saving money up to purchase a weighted blanket. That should help me at least with calming down. I don't know what I can do during the day though... I have lots of reading to do for my courses so I will try and remember to write more often, but for now I must read the text books. Bye for now.

summer classes




I decided to take summer classes to help speed along my degree. I made the Dean's list for last semester and was happy about that. Right now I am taking another Biology with its Lab (the course is online, the Lab is at the school), and general psychology online. I wish I didn't have to take psychology...but I might end up having to drop it anyway very soon. I'm having a hard time lately. Yesterday was my Dad's birthday. My mother and I were headed to the cemetery and then my grandfather asked if he could go to...so, he came with. The whole time he was talking while I was trying to remember my Dad in my thoughts and posted his birthday card on his stone. My grandfather kept on talking to me, completely ignoring the fact that this is supposed to be MY time with my Dad. I was very upset and still am. I didn't get any time alone with him. Also, I had a terrible nightmare last night and woke up crying and was desperately craving to be wrapped up in a heavy blanket, but there was none to be found. I am having difficulties with reading only it is a little worse, and I am not sure whether it is medication issue, or if it is a learning issue, or if it is a courseload issue or all of the above. Well, thought I'd catch up. I hope things are going well for everyone else.
