September update!

3 day News:
So i procrastinated for about... ohhhh... marzo abril mayo junio, julio, augusto, septiembre SIX MONTHS... I finally wrote my letter, folded them, addressed them, stuffed them, sealed, stamped, and the MAILED them September 16th. 7 weeks until the event. I'm proud to say that in those 9 days alone... I have gotten 84% of my funds raised... HOW CRAZY IS THAT?!?! I still have donations coming in too!!! My family is so awesomely generous and wonderful. As well as the neighbors, friends, and acquaintances that have donated. My room mate and fellow team mate is a wee bit jealous of my speedy fundraising. I kind of feel bad because she has been slaving over 3 Garage sales this summer, sent letters, and doing a fourth garage sale next weekend... and I passed her up in only a week. just with letters. I dont even need to take letters to work because Im going to make it to my goal without risking getting in trouble for soliciting... training tomorrow with Cassie.. hopefully we can fit in 10 miles... ahhhh... 6 more weeks!

Work News:
they have hired 3 new employees and my hours have been cut like crazy! i didnt even have to go to work today.... this is the first time they flat out did not even put me in the schedule. i basically dont even have a classroom anymore... i float around from room to room whereever they need me, whoever needs a break... im a filler. thoughts of maybe finding a new job have crossed my mind... but i cant bear to leave all those kids ive grown so attached too....

School News:
I'm only taking 12 hours, but two of my classes have 3 hour labs so it feels like 18 hours. another reason why my hours at work have been cut. the classes have been going great so far. good professors, not too difficult assignments. crossing my fingers for a 4.0. Mondays and Wednesdays Im pretty much unreachable. 8am to 8:30 pm im going going going.

the one good thing about not having work hours is that i do have more of a social life this semester. Im able to to hang out with my room mates at decent times and actually eat dinner with them. my friends are helping me keep my mind off the family situation so that's good. My dad makes me sick. literally... sick.. nauseous. i was "sick" for about 45 minutes today. He is too stupid to even realize he is stupid. apparently gets mad when i talk about the situation, but i really could care less about how he feels. Why should I care about his feelings when he doesnt care about mine, my mom's, brother's, or sister's. God he is such an idiot. Okay Im stopping Im stopping Im stopping because I am about to get riled up.

I am so grateful for what I have and would be nowhere without my extended family members. You have all been so wonderful and supportive to us and me, my mom, sister, and brother all really appreciate and love you guys so much!!!! There really are no words to describe how much love I feel for and from my family. okay getting cheesy now but it is the truth! thanks for reading!
