One Plus One Equals Two

Wow, that should be the title of my book, if I ever decide to write a book. If I did it would be based on fiction and real life. What kind of book is that? If you know please tell me. Oh oh is it historical fiction? Idk, anyway so I've been so used to being on my own and doing what I want to do that it's been hard thinking of myself as part of a couple. I do so much for myself, I go to work, go to school, and I sit there in those class rooms and offices, alone, dealing with those ppl alone. But when I come home there is always someone waiting to talk to me, to find out about my day, who loves me. It's a hard concept to grasp for me. I was sitting in bed thinking about this and wondering am I part of this team/couple and I thought, yea I am. We are a couple. Before I didn't think that way, I thought of us as two people getting to know one another. I guess we still are but we've learned so much, shared so much that if we've decided to stay together that must mean we plan to go forward with this, to reach the goal, to be a team, a couple. Wow. That just totally blew my mind. I still have some more growing up to do but realizing that has helped me tremendously. I just hope I don't screw anything up. I'll keep praying and trusting in God that we'll grow closer and make decisions that are best for both of us. Ha, tomorrow makes fifteen months since we've been together, maybe I should do something nice for him, to thank him for putting up with me. I am a tough cookie to crack. Happy Tuesday. Much love, K

He's Mad

I reckon the boyfriend is mad at me, sad but possibly true. Yesterday was Memorial Day. I baked all morning. I made brownies, cupcakes and chocolate chip cookies. I enjoyed making all these things. Then I went to my Aunt's house. It was pretty cool. We ate hot dogs and burgers, chicken, potato salad, rice, beans, corn on the cob, sausages. It was all very nice. My cousins were there, four out of six. There use to be five of us first cousins and our ages are in numerical order. I am the oldest, then the oldest boy from the two brothers, then Jinny, then my sister then the youngest brother who also happened to be the youngest out of us all until two Christmases ago. My uncle had a daughter Caira. She's alright I guess, saw her last summer. She likes to be loud and play and watch Dora. So yea, it was us four and two friends of my cousin and my aunt and uncle. It was cool. Talked, watched WMBA and a little tv. We went home then nothing, I didn't do anything, kept eating candy and started to read a book, which reminds me that I should start on my Goodreads account. Jinny left to see her friends and the rest is history. Called my boyfriend to tell him I love him, but he was busy with his friends. Called him later on when he got home but he got mad at me for not telling him what was wrong with fried pickles. I don't know how I feel about them, they're okay I guess, I don't know. I can't knock it until I tried it. So that was my Memorial Day. Much love, K

The Friday to End all Fridays

Today is my last Friday at work. Yesterday, I had an interview at my school for a teaching position. It went really well. I'm a little scared about it but I know that given the opportunity to do the job I'll learn a lot from being there and will try my best to help the students out. After that I went to work at BCC where I got lots of hugs and kisses from my upper level students but none from the lower level. After work, I went to my other job where I had to review my 15 page research paper and work on my presentation for later on in the day. Class went by in a moderate pace. It was mostly presentations, and mine was pretty okay. I think I did well and that I may even get an A in the class. However, I failed my comprehensive exam. This is a bummer for me. Overall the semester went pretty well except that hiccup. I will be taking next semester but I guess over this summer I should come up with some kind of plan to study for it again next semester.

All week I have been breaking out in hives. I hope after today I can plan on all of them disappearing because this is no bueno. I also plan to work out this summer as well as work on my Spanish and hopefully get some money so I can continue to save for my future. I guess I will also be making new things with yarn and trying out new recipes. Busy summer ahead but I can't wait to jump in and have some fun. I hope you all have a wonderfully fabulous summer! Much love, K
