Ick. I can't figure out what I want to do with my life... I just know that it has to involve helping children. I enrolled for spring classes back in October... I had enrolled myself in whatever was required to get a degree in Social Work. Today is the first day of classes... so I show up on campus bright and early, and head to the nearest cafe to get myself a caramel steamer. I then take a seat and start wasting time until class starts. I started thinking about the classes I was taking, and it dawned on me... they fucking suck. I have no desire to take ANY of those classes. I know they are required to get my degree in Social Work, but surely I can find another way to help children. Hell, in all honesty, I guess I could have a job completely unrelated to working with kids and still find time OUTSIDE of work to work with kids... so now I'm roaming. I ended up coming to the library and skipping my first two classes so I could completely rearrange my class schedule. I was enrolled in four boring classes (sociology, math, history, and music) and I dropped three of them... I only stayed in the sociology class. I then enrolled myself in a political science class, and two criminal justice classes. I have no idea what I intend to do with those credits, but damnit... that's what I want to take. *sigh*
Am I making a mistake? Bleh.
Not much else is going on in my life. Now that school is back, I'll probably be on here a lot less... between school and my two part time jobs, I don't know how much time I'll have to sleep, much less blog and post. I'll find a way though. :biggrin: I can't stay away from this place for long.
I cut my hair in half and dyed it red. So now it's a really short cut (but I love it) and it's two different shades of red. The naturally dark brown part of my hair is now a deep red, and the part that had been bleached is now bright red. I love it. I also got new glasses, but I won't actually have them in my possession until the 28th. They had to be shipped off to get all the protective coating and anti-glare shit done to them. I'm excited about those as well. Tomorrow, while Skyler is at school, I think I'm gonna try to get two of my tattoos touched up - they're looking a little rough.
I love having money. :biggrin: I was able to pay off about $500 in bills. And I got a new cell phone since mine had been shut off a couple months back. I think I'm also going to get a gym membership and just pay them for six months in advance, that way I don't have to worry about paying them again until fall, when I get another round of student loans. At the YMCA, I'll qualify for a scholarship and will have to pay very little (if any) monthly fees. I'll be able to go at least three days a week with no problem. I'm pretty effin happy. :smile:
I guess that's about all. I know I just basically said a whole lot of nothing, but I don't have shit else to do until noon. I think I'm gonna go grab a bit to eat now, though. Ya'll have a good one!
