Hey everybody, I just want to start out by saying that this is an awesome place. Okay, now with that out of the way, I am going to describe myself. I am short, like 5'3. I have blonde hair and blue eyes. I live on a farm. I have one dog named Fred. He is Australian Shepherd crossed with Border Collie. I might be getting another dog named Logan. He is a puppy. He has Australian Shepherd in him, but he is crossed with Husky. He has one blue eye. He is really cute. There are a whole bunch of cats here too. They don't seem to practice safer sex, hehe. At least most of them wonder off. Then I have two horses. One is an Arabian. The other is an Appaloosa. I will be turning 17 this November. I am going to be a Jr. this year in school. I can tell already by my schedule that it will be one really, really hard year. The classes that I am taking are Chemistry, Advanced Biology, Accouting, Trig., Metals and welding/small engine repair, and Spanish II. I will have my work cut out for me this year. I am one of those lucky poeple who don't pay attention in class, study, or do their homework, but get excellent grades. I am like 3rd in class I think. I also have a pretty demanding job as well. I am a Nurses Assistant Registered where I work at a Retirement home. I had to take a college course to become one. That was pretty cool. I have been working at the retirement home Since December 2001. It's a really good job, but it gets really hard a lot of the time. At least with that job I could by myself a car. I bought a 1997 Dodge Stratus. It is a really nice car in my opinion. Of course the only choice of car that I could have gotten had to be Dodge. My dad only drives Dodge, and he won't let me drive anything other than it. But that is okay I guess. I have to go to work today, I really don't want to but I have to. I have to work a 2:45-11:15pm shift. I really don't like them that much. I don't like staying up that late working. Then I am tired and I still have to drive home. But I always manage by staying up as late as I possibly can the night before, so I am not as tired by the end of the shift. Well, I think that about covers it for now. Gotta start getting ready for work. Ish. Laterz.------------------ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You have but one life to live So Live it to the fullest ~by~I don't know ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ?¿?ßµŧŧε®çµÞ ßãߥ?¿? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hi Buttercup Baby. That's really neat that you work at a retirement home. I want to get into nursing, too.
See you around the ST Boards.

I've thought about working in a retirement home. What type of college class did you have to take for it? because I was planning on taking some college courses anyway. You sound very cool, I used to want to live on a farm when I was little. I've actually stayed the night at a few and got to name a "kid(baby goat)."

Yeah, it is pretty cool to work at a retirement home, because you get to learn about the people and what life used to be like. That's really fun. But it is really hard when someone is starting to pass on. Especially if they have a terminal illness or something. I hate seeing people suffer. It is so sad. The college class that I took basically was to teach us about being a Nurses Aid. Some places that hire NA's don't need them to be certified. But the class I took made me certified after I took and passed the test at the end of the class. The classes were really long. They were like 5 1/2 hours once a week for like 6 weeks. I got 3 college credits for nursing because of that class. I am thinking about becoming a Nurse, but I don't know. I always wanted to be a vet, but the more I think about it, that harder it becomes. Like, there are so many different kinds of animals to work with. So you need to learn different things about different animals. But I don't know yet. I will probably figure it out sooner or later. I do have 2 years of high school left.

Thanks for the compliment. Man I am so tired. I just got back from work, ish. One long day. So I am gonna go to bed. Laterz.

Yesterday was a good day. I went swimming with my cousin and my aunt for 3 hours. I got burnt, but not too bad. Then I went home and I went to her house. We stayed there for like an hour. After that we went to a nearby town and cruised around for like an hour. Then we went to the movies and seen xXx. It was a really good movie, but it needs more action. But I enjoyed it. There were only like 8 people in the movie theater that we were in. I don't know about the other movies that were playing there. But I am guessing not that many either. It was a pretty quiet night at the theater. Probably because most people go to the movies before 6 for the Matinees. Those are like 2 dollars cheaper. I didn't get home until like midnight, but I was tired. So I stayed up until like 2:30. Today sucks because I have to sit home by the phone. I am On Call for work. So I have to be here if they call me in. I hate that. Most of the time you don't get called in. So it means you waste a whole day. Ohh well. Well, I gotta go, laterz.------------------ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You have but one life to live So Live it to the fullest ~by~I don't know ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ?¿?ßµŧŧε®çµÞ ßãߥ?¿? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Today is going by way too fast. It really bites. Tomorrow is my first day of school. I am not really ready for it because it seems like the summer was just way too short. I just can't believe that it's school time already. Plus, I also have to work tomorrow. So I will be really busy tomorrow. Ohh well. I will get used to it, I'm sure. I am so incredibly bored right now. I should be trying to find something to do that way I can end summer with a bang. But there really isn't too much to do. I was thinking about riding my horse, but my mom doesn't want me to. I hate that. So I am thinking about going out there and giving my horse a good brushing, cuz she needs it. She has been rolling around in the dirt. Well, with that in mind, I think that I am gonna go, laterz.------------------ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You have but one life to live So Live it to the fullest ~by~I don't know ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ?¿?ßµŧŧε®çµÞ ßãߥ?¿? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My first day of school was okay. It could have been way better, but it was pretty boring. We have a new Administration, so the school has changed in rules again. The same thing happened last year. It's really messed up. But other than that stuff, the day wasn't too bad. I am one of the only girls in metals and welding, hehe. That class should be so easy for me, because my dad is a professional welder. So if I need help with it, all I have to do is ask him. I wish my second hour class was my first hour class. Second hour I have my favorite teacher. He is so cool. I had him first hour last year. And there is no way that you could ever fall asleep in his class. He will yell at us. In fact, he yelled at us right away today. He yelled, "SUMMER VACATION IS OVER!!!!!!!!" He is hillarious. I have trig second hour. Well, that is about all for now. Gotta go, laterz.------------------ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You have but one life to live So Live it to the fullest ~by~I don't know ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It's only a flesh wound" Monty Python and the Holy Grail ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~?¿?ßµŧŧε®çµÞ ßãߥ?¿? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hey all!! So far school is going pretty good. Unfortunately it is freezing. But this week they are turning on the heaters, but this week is supposed to be hot. I don't get it, ohh well. My school is a little messed up. I mean, just this last week someone was arrested for pulling a knife on someone and then someone called in a bomb threat. But, anyways, I am really happy right now. I have an awesome boyfriend. He is so cool. The last boyfriend I had was/is a freak. I broke up with him and he started to threaten me. Ohh well. I'm not scared of him. Right now he is trying to make me jealous, but it won't work. It's funny because his friend is my current boyfriend. Well, there really isn't anything else that is too new, so I am gonna go, Laterz all.------------------ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You have but one life to live So Live it to the fullest ~by~I don't know ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "It's only a flesh wound" Monty Python and the Holy Grail ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ?¿?ßµŧŧε®çµÞ ßãߥ?¿? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

quote: Originally posted by Olive:I find it funny that your ex is trying to make you jealous . Yeah, it is really funny. He is trying to make me jealous by asking my friends out, and they won't go out with him. They are totally creeped out when around him, and I can't blame them. He is such a creep. I have been so mean to him lately though, I ALMOST feel sorry for him. But he needs to take the hint that I don't care about his car and racing, and that he really should just leave me alone. I'm sure I will get it through his skull soon enough. Well I gotta go, so Laterz.
Ohh by the way, thanks for the good luck.

Hey all. I know it has been like forever since I have written here. But I have been so busy lately. I am never home anymore it seems. That's okay though. There's not much to miss here. There has been a lot of things going on lately. One of them is that I am engaged. I am really happy about that. Another thing is that I am in the school play again this year. I love being in the play. I think it is the greatest, but that is just me. We are doing the Crossed Lovers. It sounds good. I haven't really read through the whole thing yet because like I said, I have been really busy lately. I can't believe Christmas is almost here and there is like hardly any snow on the ground. That is so not like Minnesota. But ohh well. I'm not really complaining about it, just shocked. Well, I don't really have anything else to say. So I am gonna go.
