  • Ok, yes, this is way outdated.  I am finally an offical college graduate. My diploma came in the mail this week. It was pretty cool. I have no life once again. I thought once I got home I would be dancing every night of the week. But that hasn't happened. I don't know, I still love it, but it's just not felt the same lately. I just need to shake myself out of this funk and get back on the dance floor. I did go to an awesome linedance workshop last week. I know this means nothing to people who aren't in the dance circuit because this guy is simply a name to them, but to those who are dancers he is so much more than that! Our guest instructor was John Robinson and he worked our tails off for 3 hours. It was so cool to be able to learn fimr him in such an intimate location. Usually the only time I take classes from him is when the HUGE 3 day dance event Peach State takes place in Atlanta in the Spring. And there's so many people, it's not very easy to talk to him or anything like that. But this was awesome! I even got to demonstrate the Hustle with him and mom and I had our picture taken with him afterward. It was a great night!

     I'm working at my old physical therapy office that I worked at last summer and during christmas break. Things have certainly changed since last summer. I don't think I will try and work at this location again. There's a new location opening up by the end of the year and it will be a little closer to home for me. But I have to wait for them to get their revenue up before they can justify hiring temporary workers. I'm not happy with the company right now because they didn't get my info. into their system in time for me to get my first paycheck. It's kinda stressful when there are bills to pay and you know its a pay day, but you aren't getting any money. But only one more week to go until next payday and I should get my first check.

    If anyone does read this I have a question to ask. Can you recommend a church that is not too far from Paulding Co. that has a lot of young adults there? I'm really struggling to find some Christians to fellowship with that are my age. I know there's a big church thing that happens in Alpharetta, if someone else knows what I am talking about can you give me specific info about it? I love my home church and all the friends I have there, but they are all a lot older than me and I am starting to feel a void inside that's caused by not having Christian friends my own age.

    Today I was lazy, I did not make it to church :(  But that's ok. Later mom and I are going out to Cowboys to do some linedancing. I thought I would go out to the Marriott for the swing dance club, but they are having a party tonight and I can't really afford that admission, since I have had a pay check yet. That should get you all caught up with me!

    Later

  • Only 3 days to go!!!! WOO HOO!!!    

    Today I went to lunch with one of my professors that I simply adore! I love being in the Health Science at CSU, until recently there were 2 main professors and I just love them both dearly. They've both done so much for me inside and outside the classroom. The professor that I had lunch with today got a me 2 precious gifts. I have a beautiful card/envelope set that I get to have personalized for free and also a great set of self-esteem booster cards. It's so cool, I've never seen anything like that before. It's such a perfect gift me for cause I don't have the greatest self-esteem in the world. It was great spending some time with her today. Now I am getting ready to go see Man of the House. Oh, also, I got a gift from my friend Katie, she got me one of those willow angels, but it's one that I already have so on my way to  the movies I am going to exchange for another one, lol. It was another great gift because I love those angels.

  • Well, it was reinforced today that I am not the brightest crayon in the box. My GRE score was pitiful. I scored a 910. That's only 10 points higher than I scored on my SAT and that was 5 years ago. Evidently I have not learned anything in college, and am on the same educational level I was when I graduated highschool. That's what the negative side of my brain tells me. The other tells me that the important thing is I met the minimum requirement of 800 in order to get in graduate school. And also that I know I've never been a good test taker, and my concentration is NOT in math and english stuff like those analogies and crap, so I shouldn't sweat it. Other than that I've been packing up some more and starting to clean the house. Tonight there's a group of us going to Buffalo Wild Wings to party and celebrate the end of the school year! WOO HOO!! Bring on the alcohol! Just kidding. One is my limit, cause when I drink more than  that, I go to sleep. Yes, I turn into a real party pooper.

  • Finals are over, you would think stress would be over. But not, I am stressing more over the GRE than I have over my finals. I can't believe I was stupid enough to schedule my GRE the day after exams. What was I thinking??? I haven't been able to fully prepare for it because I've been studying for finals. I  really need to score a 1040 so I can be exempt from the PRAXIS I and can go on and take PRAXIS II and have my provisional teaching certificate. But I just don't have faith that I'm going to score that high. It's not the end of the world if I score less and have to take PRAXIS I, I know I could pass it, it would just save me time and money to not have to take it. I found out I was 1 point short of being able to skip it by using my ACT score highschool. I needed a 43 and I scored a 42. Totally sucks! I've been reading "The GRE test for Dummies" for the last month or so. It's really helpful while I am reading it but as soon as I try the practice exam, I forget everything I just read. I know I'm going to that same thing tomorrow when I have the test in front of me!!! Oh well, there's my venting for the day. Please cross your fingers and say a prayer for me tomorrow at 12:00.

About Me

  • I am 23 and a recent college graduate from Columbus State in Columbus GA. I am home in Dallas GA for the summer. Will return to Columbus in the Fall for graduate school. Not too much to say I guess. I am a Christian, searching for other Christians my age to fellowship with. I love to dance! This is my favorite time of year cause I can be out in the sunshine and on the water.
