Apr. 7, 2008 - Happenings
Wow! It looks like you all remember me, after all. (Well, at least some of you. )
Ok, here's the update you all have been waiting for:
I am currently enrolled in five online classes for school (Chemistry, Spanish, English, Life Management, and Physical Education), and am currently waiting for them to place me in the second semester of Algebra II. I'm really enjoying the courses and I'm making excellent grades. My dad calculated my GPA as a 4.0 so I guess that means I'm doing very well. Isn't that exciting!
Last month, I took the SAT for the first time. I got the results back, wasn't too happy with them, so I'm going to try the ACT, instead. Oi... I'm not good with tests. 
I've been babysitting out of the ying-yang, which is a really good thing. Also, I'm planning on getting a summer job soon, so please pray that I will get one and that I will do well in it. I'm trying to save money up for a car, insurance, and some other "Big Girl Toys," so I definitely need the money!
I am going to share with you all a current struggle of mine...
I am having a hard time allowing myself to grow up, meaning, I'm having a hard time accepting the added responsibility. Yes, I act very maturely (except I am very selfish, which I am very ashamed of and am trying to get rid of), but I am having a hard time accepting the added responsibility of being a young adult. I am terrified of driving, and I'm too impatient to watch my parents drive. I, unwittingly "expect" my parents to pay for everything, and most importantly, I'm terrified of going to college. All I can picture is the results, but I am not taking the time to analyze and think of what I will need to do to get to my results. I want to be a wife and mother more than anything, so I tend to spend a lot of my time dreaming of that instead of how I'm going to get there and what I am going to do in the meantime. Also, I'm still viewing my high school graduation and college and "growing up" as merely a dream instead of it being reality. --Sigh-- So, yes, this is what I am struggling with right now. I would love your feedback.
Enough about me -- what about you? What have you been up to?
Later.
