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.

Cassidy

Hey there girl, I know exactly how you feel.

I hate hate HATE school. I literally have to force myself to do any of it. It just doesn't seem like reality, like you said. I feel like I'm going through this dream land, and when I wake up, I'll finally be an adult. Only... unlike you, I WANT to drive and all ASAP. haha. =P

Love ya, chick, and I hope to see you in a couple weeks.

I know what you mean about not accepting responsibilities. I think the culture really hammers it into our heads that we're teenagers, we can do what we like. But we really need to realize that we'll be adults soon, and if we don't start handling the few (in comparison to the many in adulthood) responsiblities we have now, our future is going to be pretty bleak.

Ooh, and I made a new template! I'm mainly done with it, but there are some small things I still want to change. Tell me how you like it. And I have a new cooking and baking blog. I'm still working on its template.

awwww *huggles* I'm sorry you're struggling. :( I have some of the same problems.

No... my mom says it probably comes out of slefishness, because if something isn't important to him or happening in his world, he forgets about it. He usually thinks of work and the yard and the cars...

Oooh... Shony. :( *sniff* LOL "I've got the mind of sieve." *snicker*

About Me

"One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure." -- William Feather This quote best describes the attitude I want to have about life. Instead of looking at life as a poor and miserable journey, I want to look at it with as much optimism as I can! I want to embrace each God-given day with a smile and enjoy the expeditions that life brings. Of course, I face many perils in life but I believe that, with God's help and my optimism, I can rise above my struggles and live a happy life. Join with me as I share with you stories of "My Life."
