What if the ‘Hokey Pokey’ is what it’s all about?

My boring world, in a weblog…

Hello Again Bloggers!

Hey everyone! I know it’s been too long since I’ve posted anything….I’ve been really busy with school stuff and Army stuff lately.  I switched Army units back in July and have been trying to get everything straightened out in that arena.  I started school back in August, and have been trying to spend more time studying than I have ever spent studying before.  In addition to all the school and Army stuff,I have had several health issues come up that I am dealing with….not fun…

Anyway, I have some updates on things that have recently transpired in my life….I am no longer going to move out of Arkansas at the end of the year…In a way I’m happy about that, but in a way I’m not happy about it…I could have gotten a little better degree in the state I was going to move to, but since I’m staying where I am, I will finish school about a semester sooner than I would have had I moved…I won’t get to be with my boyfriend as soon as I had hoped since I’m not moving, but he will be moving here very soon, so I am extremely happy about that! :)   One of the best things about me not moving is that I won’t have to give my pets away.  I was going to have to sell/give away my ferret and my cat, but now that I’m staying here, I can keep them!  Plus, I was worried about taking my pup with me because I would have been living on a third floor apartment, and that would have been difficult with the potty training skills my pup has developed….He is used to getting to go outside and stay outside for a little while so he can play, and waist time looking for the perfect spot to potty….If we had moved I would have had to start going out with him, and I wouldn’t have had the time necessary for him to look for the perfect potty spot every morning….

The neighborhood I would have been living in isn’t the safest area for a female to live either….Granted, I wouldn’t have been living there alone, but I would have been there by myself a lot at night, and I felt so uncomfortable going outside to get something out of my car after dark, so I can only imagine how unsafe and uncomfortable I would have felt having to take my pup out to potty late at night before bed time…I felt safe every time my bf was there with me, but as soon as he would leave for work, the safe feeling I had would go with him….I don’t know if that makes sense, but that’s the way it is..

So….Yes, I am bummed that I’m not moving at year’s end, but I am glad I’ll finish school on time, I get to keep all of my babies, and when my bf moves here I’ll be in hog heaven! Oh! We actually had a conversation about marriage the other day when he was here visiting!  I have never been so happy in my life! I mean, we have known each other since we were 13 years old, so we know each other pretty well…He knows just how to make me smile, even when I don’t want to smile.  I can make him laugh just by saying something in a goofy voice, or with a funny face…We can talk about anything and everything with each other, and no matter what we say, it’s alright.  I am so in love with him!  Of course, our conversation was about marriage, but it wasn’t a proposal….But, if he were to ask me to marry him right now, I would in a  heartbeat!  It would be just wonderful!!!!

Anyway, I spoke to the dean of the college of education at my university…He told me that I have to make three a’s and one  B in order raise my GPA up to where it needs to be by the end of this semester so I can get into the College of Education…Of course, I can make all A’s and be fine too, but I’m really worried about being able to make three A’s and one B….I have two teaching classes and two math classes this semester, and I am horrible when it comes to any type of mathematics….So, I’m spending extra time on homework and studying this go round….I’ve never had to study before in my life, I’ve always made good grades….Never straight A’s, but good nonetheless.  Now, at 26 years of age, I am learning how to study for the first time…It’s not easy…

Anyway, I have class tomorrow morning, so I’ll end this post here…I’ll try to post things more often than I have been from now on….Oh! BTW – I have two math tests this week, one on Wednesday, and the other on Friday….Wish me luck!

Until next time~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Happy Blogging!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
