ok. so to say the least, as of monday i am being TORTURED at work about my trip!! it started when shaila came in my office and starting making airplane noises then like it was crashing…THEN…she buzzed me up front and was like laura have you looked on the internet today? and i was like uh yea..why?? and she said there was a really bad earthquake in ecuador and there weren’t any survivors!!! and i mean, this is all like serious talk..no laughing involved.
then yesterday, it continued with rumors of new tribes being found and killing off all the americans and so many other things…then this morning, i walked back in davids office (my boss) and i was giving him his files. he smiles and sayd thank you then after i walk out he was like hey debra (the lady that works beside him) what was on the news this morning about that civil war that broke out in ecuador and they’re killin all the missionaries??? and she was like o yea..it started after the earthquake…which is just TERRIBLE!!! and its only 11 am!!
I have a feeling tomorrow is going to be just awful.
on an up scale note, i’m working a fiddler’s convention saturday morning at fort payne middle school, so if you don’t have anything else to do, come on down 
Ok..well, everyone have a great humpday!!!!!!
-torture- July 30, 2008
ooooooeeemmmmmmggggeeee!!! July 28, 2008
ok. so i am SOOO burnt out!!! i was up till midnight last night working on my history paper. FIANLLY got that turned in, but i gotta have my power point done by Friday. Then I also have to have at least one page of my English research paper done by Wednesday. PLUS my chaper 7 test taken in statistics by wednesday night. this is all on top of my 8-5 job 
i don’t think i have ever been this stressed and tired in my life!!!
Good news?? yes. as of tomorrow it will be one week until my departure from this boring old place I’d be ready to leave tomorrow if i could!! well all except that i’m not packed lol. other than that, i’m so ready!!!
One of the girls i work with informed me that she has been praying that my plane won’t go down when it goes over the ocean. lol. i was like o thank you so much for your consideration. lol
i worked tha ballet at the school yesterday. it wasn’t that bad actually. i watched the first half of it but had to leave because i had praise team practice..then justin informed me that the second half was the best half!! ah i was so mad….
anywho…i guess thats all for now…write later….
have a great week
–almost out!– July 25, 2008
so, while dusty and i were endlessly working on bbusiness statistics last night, we suddenly realized that school is almost OUT for the summer semester! but o my..we worked from about 8 to 11. then i went home and finished my history paper. so as for me, i will be EXTREMELY happy when classes are over. and how sad is it that i was registered for next semster like 2 weeks ago….
but..i sure am glad i did considering almost all the classes i am in are closed now!!! i was pretty surprised. i signed in and saw all the ones that had closed within a matter of days and i was like o wow…
anywho…the ballet is sunday so i’ll be busy sunday with that after church. then i’m going to dusty’s yet again to work on stats..i tell you…that is definately a class i DO NOT love. and the sad part is that i have to take the second part this fall 
ok..well i guess thats all for now…everyone have a great weekend
wrapping it up.. July 21, 2008
so its getting there..end of school, time for my trip, end of hosting for the semester…its all coming to an end once again. the sad bitter end. Except, its not sad, or bitter to me. This means I have exactly 2 semesters left at nacc and then i can graduate
Brody is doing wonderful. He’s still a tiny little ole thing..but then again I knew he would be..i mean look at anna and derek. they are both ittle bity so i knew he would be too.
work is still great. I’m still here full time and i am FINALLY feeling better! Although, i have a feeling that isn’t going to last very long. I have an english paper due, a history paper, like 20 more history tests, business stats tests, and i have to read hamlet to beat it all. yuck i know…but..like i said before, its almost all over.
I’m looking forward to me 2 week break from school. lol. Although I don’t know if i would consider it a “break.” I’ll be in a foreign country working my tail off so it may feel just like I’m in school. lol. o well.
So, guess this is all for now.
Hope everyone has a great monday and a wonderful rest of the week
-wEeKeNd- July 16, 2008
so its only wednesday and i am SOO ready for the weekend! It totally killed me not working for like a week and then having to come back to work. Definately not good for people like me who have been sleeping all week.
well, school is almost over. My daddy’s birthday is tomorrow so i was looking at my calander so i could see when me and my sisters could take him out, and i realized, this week, next week, and then the next and thats it! Which for me it all kinda ends a little sooner because i have to take my final earlier since i will be leaving the day finals start. This summer has just flown by! I was talking to my aunt yesterday and I was thinking, if I get the intership I am applying for, I will be gone this time next year. Like, for good until I come back to visit. Which to me is just fabulous. lol.
Its so strange how everything just flies by. Which, thats all i’ve heard my whole life. “Time will just fly by Laura.” But they also all said they would love to go back to high school. Ugh..not me. I liked high school about once a week and that was it. WAAY too much drama!! People wonder why teens faces break out..well i can tell you why; stress from all the rediculous drama they go through! Yep, thats it.
Anyway…time for lunch. Just wanted to drop a few lines and try my best to get out of the boredom. Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!
..bAcK iN tHe SwInG.. July 14, 2008
well, i’m back at work now..i was out ALL WEEK last week sick! it was terrible. I have mono, and evidently i have had it for like a year and didn’t even know it! so all week last week i pretty much layed around in the bed and wished my life away doing homework. lol.
the worst part…my doctor doesn’t want me to go to ecuador. he told us that and i just lost it and started crying. i could not even imagine doing all this work to get ready for this trip and then finding out 4 weeks before i’m supposed to leave that i can’t go. but, he pretty much said it was all up to me and that if i was feeling up to it, then i could. so, i’m doing my dead level BEST to get back on my feet and get back to normal.
brody is doing great. mom and anna took him back to the doctor on wednesday and he had gained an ounce. lol. i was like o wow..but, obviously that is pretty good. and he passed all of his tests and everything. hearing, heart, all that baby stuff..mom and dad are absolute goo-goo eyed over him still..i don’t think that will ever wear off. lol.
welp, i think that may be it for now. O..the play is this weekend..12 Angry Men. i haven’t watched it yet but i heard they all do a fantastic job! which that wouldn’t surprise me considering they always do!! so if you get some free time and don’t have anything to do, go out and watch the play
hope everyone has a fabulous week!!
