Seems like i've been posting my blogs on mondays recently.... lucky you guys...
lol.
anyways - so far the day's been ok.
the week's been alright-
school got out last tues - well thats when my last final was - over all... i passed the classes.. yay. didnt get as high of grades that i was thinking / hoping for. but at least i dont have to retake the classes (thank goodness)
this is leaving me with 3 classes left for the community college, and hopefully i'll be able to get my grades up so i can get in... GPA is still short to get in. may have to take a class during that second set of summer classes.
anyways - we will see...
lets see, I am keeping very busy with church stuff and work right now... I love doing stuff with the church... but there is alot to be done. - i know that im not even the main person, but between lessons, figuring out what the kids want to do, scheduling those things, getting them ready for summer camp, and just stuff... its alot... we were busy this month, we had a concert to go to, and of course lessons and stuff, we had a HUGE garage sale a few weekends ago - and made over $2300! it was amazing - this is to help cover the youth's cost for the camps (1/2 of it) and then cover some activities in the summer as well as prob. help out in the winter as well. (yaaay)
I know that many of the kids enjoy my lessons and stuff... i feel like some are just judging me and waiting for me to mess up...
recently - (like within past like 2 or 3 days, i've just felt like people are disappointed in me - like just several people basically have said 'you should have done_______" or "you should have said ___________" basically telling me that whatever i did was wrong, and i should have thought abou tthings, and i should do ___________this or _________that" - just i want them to realize that i am who i am, and that i say what i say... i do what i do... just tired of them treating me like a little kid... i dont know...i appreciate advice, but when it feels like they are just degrading me, and that i do everything wrong.... you know.... just a little disheartetning... i wish that they would just appreciate me for who i am. and just go with it... but everyone has a say so.... just gotta live with it.
Job: its alright... still ready to get out..
ready to travel and go,
especially since many of my friends are already out for the summer -and they arent doing anything.
simon reminded me that I am making like twice as much as many of these people are making (the ones that are working at least) i dont know a single other person, my age that is paying for EVERYTHING themselves... no help from parents... apt, car, insurance, electricity , internet/tv, groceries, entertainment money - clothing... everything.
I am still ready to do my photography.
so far no one is willing to pay for my services. i think theres one person thats ready to, but a matter of setting the day.
other than that, some inquiries but no bites. im thinking about doing like a summer special (like 75% off...) i need some bites... if i can just get 4 or 5 familes... this summer - then really vamp it up for halloween / fall / christmas photos... then hopefully next yr it will grow. i was hoping to have a full - fledged photo business by Jan of next year, but i dont think thats going to happen... its moviing slower than what i had anticipated... oh well.
i have to remind myself that all of this is in His plan :)
it will be alright.
