Tubular Tuesday!

Today was a fabulous day.

All my stresses went away. And I learned that if you're just willing to work hard and try your best, that everything will fall into place &  that I am EXTREMELY blessed. Also, my cute little boo called me randomly. That just made my day. He's a sweetie pie.

School Stuff:

I was stressing out. My friend took the math placement study course and the test itself three times without passing. Math 1010, the pre-req if you don't pass was four days a week with homework EVERY day. And me and Kylee thought we were doomed. We looked up our options, we thought about solutions and finally we trekked to the building that could help us. She was a funny lady, her desk had a little jar that said "Ashes of Problem Students."

She answered her phone and said, "Please Hold... oh you can't hold, okay then why don't you jump off the education building," but she was just joking around. Funny middle aged women are the best. I want to have her charisma.

Anyway, after one sentence she answered our worries. No test, no Math 1010, so say hello to Statistics 1040. Mr. Boyd, as much as I hated your class, I hope some of it sticks with me.

ALSO, in the class I skip consistently. I found out that we get extra credit for attendance on days without important tests or group work! YAY YAY YAY! Also our final is to watch Finding Nemo and to no explain or write about the disabilities.... nope that'd be too much of a challenge, we just have to list them...

I went to SI and learned everything I haven't been learning during my actual Biology class period. Then mm, taco tuesday.

Eye-Opener:

I went to Invisible Children tonight and it was so heart-breaking!!! Wow, I really want to make a difference after that. And even fly to Africa. I have some friends who did and they are amazing for their involvement in it. I have bins full of shoes, cupboards full of foods, a computer, cell phones, clothes and an education. Here I have everything I could ever need and these kids don't have families, they don't have any education or opportunities. What the organization does is amazing in order to spread the word and get help to that country. I can't believe that at nine years old I could've been in a war, taken from my home, seeing family members dying, forced to kill babies and shoot families. Wow, what those kids do is so shocking and it really shows me what I have to be grateful for.

It's not just thousands of kids in a group. Each and EVERY kid has a family, has a life, has a future and all of it is affected. They are abducted by Joseph Kony and are used as soldiers in his disturbing army.

Honestly, I have no right to be sad when something doesn't go my way, when my friends are being mean or someone hung up the phone on me. There is so much more to life than the dumb problems and minor trials, I truly am blessed.

To finish the night strong: 

Me and Brad finally tie-dyed & I cannot wait to see the beautiful creation we created. Just another fun night in the dorms. 

Oops. I may have been too cheap to buy gloves???
