Shame on Me

I really shouldn't wait this long to update...especially when such exciting things have been going on!

I got back last Sunday from the Mission Trip I went on with my church to Pennsylvania. It was INCREDIBLE! We did VBS for a church up there, and the children were SO eager to learn about God. It was a real blessing. And I also got to know some of my fellow church members much better. I'm thrilled to death that I have 2 new ACTUAL friends in my church!!! It has probably been since the 5th or 6th grade since I've had actual, real, and true friends at church! God is amazing!!! Goodness I love those two women to death!

Ok, onto other news. Michael and I have begun registering for wedding gifts! It is sooo much fun to go around the store and scan what you want! I know there is probably NO way we'll get everything, and that's totally cool, but it's still exciting!!!

Hmmm, what else. Oh, Ellie, my cat, is sick. She has a BIG hole on her buttcheek, and we don't know why. It isn't draining or bleeding, but we are keeping a CLOSE eye on it, and we are going to give it a few days to see if it gets better. If it doesn't, it's gonna be time to take her to the vet...ugh.

On a final note, I'm hopefully getting some relief here in 2 weeks. I have a problem with clenching my teeth in my sleep, and it's causing me to have problems when I chew gum, when I try to close my mouth when I yawn, and I've been having really bad headaches. My dentist is having me get a custom night guard made. I'm thrilled because I'm ready for a good night's sleep, and no more headaches!

Ok, so I lied, there is one more thing I want to address...school. I go back on the 27th of this month, and I'm not happy about it anymore. I'm taking 18 hours. 3 of my classes are in the area of marketing, and a new prof is teaching those...I got to meet him, and I'm fearing for my life in these classes now. He tries to come across as a big and bad economist...telling me he's a jerk and he isn't nice, and bull like that. That didn't bother me until he asked me if I was good in math. Yeah, I'll admit that I SUCK in math. The word "terrible" would be too good of a word for my mathematical abilities. I told him I'd be fine as long as I had a calculator...and that's when my life hit the fan...he told me that he doesn't allow calculators in his class...simply because he could fit the whole course on his palm pilot, and he doesn't want others doing that and bringing it to the tests. NOT OK. I told him all I needed was my little scientific calculator that you can't program anything into. Then he told me that it still wasn't allowed because people would still try to use their cell calc and text the answers, or use palm pilots and keep notes in it to use. I think he just wants to make life miserable for his own sick pleasure. But whatever. Pray about this.

Ok, now I'm done :)

P.S. I'm reading the new Harry Potter book, and if anyone spoils it for me, I will have some sort of vicious payback in store! ;)
