Day 21 - Exhausted

One good thing about working so early and having zero free time is that now my homework will be done early and the night before and I will get plenty of sleep. Since I got up at 6 today, I am exhausted and it is only 8:30. I wanted to go to bed at 8 but I know that is ridiculous. I am though sad that I will have less of a life and I have to consstanly watch the clock and make sure I get to sleep. I'm afraid I won't wake up in the morning if I don't get enough sleep.

Yes I was talking to Kallie and we are going to live together this summer and take ASL 3! Plus I will then get to work at daycare and make money and life is fantastic!!!

Yup so tomorrow I am going back to college. Today I babysat. So much fun! and then Amy came over and she helped me make my tie blanket and then we watched Revenge of the Bridesmaids. I just love Amy because we have the simplest of nights and it is fun and ok. Heart her and Sylvia!

Day 17 - Having A Life

The reason why the blogs have been very late or very very late or very short is because I am busy having a life that I then don't have the time to write about it. Either I am so very tired from a long day or I am out all night with friends and forget to write.

On January 17, 2014 I went to About Time with Brittanny. Then I went bra shopping with my mum and sister at Aerie. eww. So strange but I did find 2 bras! and they were $20 each. Such a good price. 

This is the good part. I went to my old high schools pep band at a basketball game and goodness it makes me so happy. I couldn't stop smiling and I ALWAYS sit there tapping my foot and such with the tempo/beat. I kept giggling. I just love band. And I sat there threw the game crocheting lol. I am making a scarf! I got to spend awesome time with my best friend Jerek and also Jacob. They are both seniors in high school still. After pep band was over we hung out with some friends at Jacob's house. Then when we had to leave Jacob's house we went to Bobby's house. House hopping :) But there we played The Game of Things and it got so weird and crazy. 

At one point Britt, Bobby, and I went to Festival to buy supplies. There I seemed to become loopy and I was acting like I was under the influence. I don't know what got into me. I'm pretty sure the cashier thought I was drunk. When leaving I said happy Easter to him.

Oh! So cute! Jerek drove me that night and when we drove to Bobby's he pulled up to the driveway and let me get out before he pulled to the curb because there is a lot of snow. Also at one point he was all, "Let me get that" and opened the passenger door for me. Gosh touch my heart. Love him.

So yeah. I did not expect my day to turn out that way and I am so glad that it did. I love my friends... which are my family.

Meet the Supervisor

Today I meet my supervisor at daycare. Her name is Jenny and she is so nice! I am really excited to work with her. I'm pretty sure it is just me and her in the morning with 8 kids. I can't wait to start! I may even be getting more hours so I can spend more time doing what I love and have the added bonus of making more money!

Hot or Not App

Holy balls. This hot or not app is going insane right now. I went on it today and I got all these connections. And normally I don't talk to most the connections but now everyone is chatting with me. I can't keep the people straight lol. whoa.

And one of the people I connected with was in my English class last semesters so we have been chatting.

Not So Bad

Daycare wasn't that bad! Once I finally found the building it was all chill lol. The daycare just switched buildings and it is so nice inside! I know it sounds cheesey but it is beautiful. I just can't even explain it to you.

There was only one guy in our group! (He is ginger! lol) There are only 16% of the staff that are male.

{ LovingLuuna }

Super Nervous!

I have my orientation tomorrow for daycare! I really am not that scared for the actual orientation. It's really finding the building. They have changed buildings since I went for my interview. So now I don't know where it is and it is stressing me out! Wish me luck on finding it!

The Little Things [1]

I am one of those cheesy sentimental people who find the smallest, microscopic things the sweetest. Today I was babysitting my favorite kids and I had to take Henry to his martial arts class. He had missed a few classes and wasn't quite remembering the moves. He needed to get one more strip on his belt to move up to the next belt and be able to graduate the next week. Well today he got his strip :) I was so proud of him. As I watched from the viewing area with his little brother (Charlie), Charlie was standing on his chair watching and clapping his hands. It was adorable. When the class was over Henry came over to me and I told him good job and I was so proud of him and such. He is smiling all big and then gives me this huge hug and a kiss on the cheek. Oh, gosh. Touch my heart. Little kids and their love. So simple and pure. You know when they show it they mean it. There is no hidden message.

My crazy kids (Henry and Charlie)

So anyway, that was just so sweet and those to boys just make me so happy.

DIY Bracelet

I go through these phases. Sometimes I am so happy and all "Let's live life" and the next I just want to stay in my room. I have zero motivation to go anywhere. I hate it. I don't know why this happens.

Lately that is how I have been. It is so lame because I am literally at home all the time unless I work and my little sister, Lily, and her boyfriend are always here. Her boyfriend, Brody, probably thinks I'm weird since I am always here. Ugh. Whatever. I mean it really doesn't matter what he thinks but when I think about it. It is not ok.

Okay. I am listening to Spotify right now and this really good song came on. Go listen, Isabella by Dia Frampton. Amazing.

I was on Pinterest and saw a cool bracelet DIY so I went to Hobby Lobby and bought the materials. It turned out pretty cool. Here is the link. DIY Beaded Bracelet Go try it out and let me know how it turned out. Super easy.

Never Thought College Would Change My Friends

My senior year of high school, I finally found and grew close to my friends. All the years leading up to my senior, I juggled friends and they came and gone. But then everything fell in to place senior year. Through out that year, my friends and I didn't understand how people didn't stay friends once they moved away for college. We were all so close. It didn't seem like anything could pull us apart. We all exchanged addresses so we could write letters and in the beginning we did Google Plus Hangouts and all chatted. It was fun.

But then we all started to make new college friends and we stopped communicating as much. The sad things is, when I am at college, I hardly notice since I am having fun with my new friends. Once I come home to visit though, I notice. Yes we make plans to hang out but sometimes I just want my college friends. It really makes me angry because I love my friends from high school but I seem to not be putting in effort to see them.

Always Being Ditched

I hate to sound like I am complaining but it just really plain old sucks sometimes. I like to think I am a relatively good and nice person but sometimes I am just treated like crap. When I sit and look back, it seems there are so many times that I have been ditched or left behind. Being all my friends left the dance while I was still getting my things together (and we were all going to my house so they were all there before me) or simply changing or cancelling plans. I especially hate the boyfriend card. I really don't care if you have a boyfriend. I get along fine with the boyfriends but why is it necessary to ditch plans with me to go out with him. You were the one that wanted these plans in the first place and now I have to do it alone.

Sorry. If you guys really knew me, you would understand better. I normally don't let these kinds of things get to me but after awhile it all just builds up. And it hurts. Makes me just want to stay home alone and stop trying. But thankfully I am not dumb and I do like humans so I don't just stay in my room like a nub (is that right?).

Anyways, I am not going to let that get me down. Next week I get to see my BEST FRIEND!!! I am so excited! I miss her so much. We are roommates so this winter break has been torture. Plus we are finally exploring the city of Milwaukee around our campus and we are going to go to AJ Bombers for lunch. It sounds delicious and the have a veggie burger so I can't wait.

Adina and Me

Ta Ta. See you tomorrow ;)

Waking UP Way To Early and Missing Humans

I don't mean to sound ungrateful but next semester is going to suck on some level. I finally got hired at the daycare on campus! So excited until I realized I work 7:30-10:30 Monday through Friday every morning. Then I have to go to class. I love kids and I really wanted this job but... EVERY MORNING. I guess I will have to get my homework done right after class so I can sleep and do it all over again. But I am so happy. I promise.

In other news, my friend Austin tends to date constantly. He said this semester he would take it slow, focus on school. And now he turned around and got a girlfriend. Ugh. I mean she lives far away so it's not like she will be here distracting him, but he always moves to fast. Oh well. His decision.

I miss humans. At school I live with my friends so I see them all the time. At home I just don't make the effort and neither do my friends over all. The one person I REALLY want to hang out with always never contacts me and I'm done being the first one all the time. So I basically sit at home and Lily's boyfriend is always here so (it sounds lame, I know) I hang with them. Obviously they do things separate but sometimes I am with them.

Going Off Topic

Gosh, I had this whole idea planned out in my head that I wanted to go on about and now I lost it. And I still have the feeling inside of me that went with what is on my mind but now I don't know what is on my mind. Life is rough lol. Hmm... what was it?

I think it had something to do with boys are being used by friends. I seriously can't remember. So I am going to talk about this amazing feeling I had the other day.

I don't know if you guys know but I am a vlogger. I do daily vlogs of my life. The other day I was watching a vlog from this summer and it just filled me with so much joy. It showed my why I vlog. I never really knew why I did. I just started doing it and I enjoy editing the videos. But now I really have a true reason as to why I do. Here is the link to the video that gave me this AHHH (imagine angels singing) moment. (You Can't Keep the Seniors Away From Band) It was the simplest of days but just looking back and remembering oh ya I did band rehearsal even though I graduated and remembering how good it feels to play (btw band makes me really emotional and I just absolutely LOVE playing). Also just showing myself that "Yes, Heather, you do have good times with your sister." because sometimes she can be so annoying. But seeing the videos, I'm like, "Oh ya, she can be fun and not annoying sometimes."

Irritation

Today I was so irritated. Everything bothered me and I don't know how to deal with it.  My little sister and her boyfriend were just hanging out doing homework together talking. I was telling them not to be so obnoxious.  They are never quiet and constantly giggling. Ugh. And I do really like her boyfriend. And we all hang out. But for some reason today I was just not having it.

That Nice Feeling

Have you ever experienced that feeling? That feeling where you have just pulled off the socks that have been on your feet all day. You drop them on the ground; pull back the covers on your bed. Sit down. Swivel and start to lay down. Then you begin to slip your feet under the covers. The covers are cold and the sheets are slick and smooth. It feels so good.

Oh, gosh. That was super weird. Basically, it is really nice to move your bare feet around in bed because they are finally free. And that just happened to me. So…. I thought I would tell ya’ll about it.

Your welcome.

Spring Cleaning?

I know people do spring cleaning but I am constantly doing "clean-outs". I'll clean my room or re-organize the bathroom and it will stay nice for a week or a month. But then slowly I'll stop putting the things were they belong and everything starts to pile up.

Today, it being the new year and all, I rearranged my room at home and then even cleaned out my bathroom drawer. For some reason it always makes me feel better when I clean my room. I blast the music and dance around as I clean. But the key is that I need to be working up to cleaning. I'll keep telling myself this weekend. I'll have time. And then one morning I'll just wake up and have this giant power in me and I just need to get my life in order.

Once I finish I always feel like I can do anything and life is good. I feel like everyone is nice to one another and we can talk out our problems. But then this dream is crushed and that is when the cleanliness of my space is over with :(

So.... ya. That was my day. Cleaning... and watching Netflix. Oh good ol' Netflix. Lots of GREYS. 

Alrighty. Ta Ta for now :)

Sorry Again

Once again I am so exhausted. I don't know what it is. I get enough sleep. I think it's the kids at day care. I haven't been around kids all semester since I went away for college so I forgot how physical it was. Thankfully this coming semester I got a job at the day care on campus so I can get back in shape lol.

After I saw my little sister's preview night for her show choir I went to a friends house and we did a little christmas gift exchange. It was so much fun. We each brought one gift and then took turns picking a gift from the pile. You were aloud to steal. I ended up with the movie "The Perks of Being a Wallflower". I am so happy I got it. Love the movie and now I don't have to buy it. :)

This group of friends are the best. They are all so sweet and kind. I have the best time with them. You know how you have different groups of friends and each group brings out different pieces of you and you have different good times with them? Well that's what I have here. This group is the awesome, pure ones. We have great conversation and they are the people I like to hang out with when I want that nice pure group. We are all religious  and are able to get together and not have the bad influences cloud us.

With my other group, they aren't all religious and our discussions are different. We may talk about boys more, or more "inappropriate" things I guys. The first group is all girls. This group is boys and girls so obviously different things will be brought up.

Amy and Sylvia are my last group. They are the ones where I can totally be me. They are my best friends. I absolutely love them and when I am with them, I can do anything and say anything and it is ok. I don't need to worry about being judged.

Ok, enough ranting on friends lol. Good night loves :)

Failing Already :(

Oh, no! Already on day 2 I am failing. My eyes are so tired. I am literally typing this with my eyes closed. They feel so weak. My body is exhasted. I worked today. It was only 4 hours, when I usually do at least 6 at Day Care but it really wore me out. Plus I didn't sleep as well as I wished. I had an awful nightmare that I am not going to rehash. 

Today at day care... it was strange. I am an assistant teacher so I am never alone for a long time with the kids. But today, the main teacher, in my opinion, left once the count was down and I was the teacher in the room with 4 little one year olds. It is just odd to me. Since I work in the afternoon, I am there when the parents pick up their kids. But I don't know which parents go to which kids, so I wait to see how the kids react. It's just so weird.

Kay. Nothing special happened today. I have a major headache right now so I am going to sleep. Goodnight.

Starting the New Year with ...

Today, January 1, 2014, I made a "goals" board type dealy that has "resolutions" on it. Basically they are things I have been meaning to work on, but never got too. So it being the new year and all, I have decided to commit. And one of my goals is to do a daily journal along with my daily vlog. Daily vlogs are great for capturing the things I DO everyday but not for capturing emotions and how I am feeling about more personal things.

2014 Goals painted on a canvas to look prettier :)

The first goal is "What's working out?". Essentially I am going to discover what working out is. I plan to get a schedule and stick to it. Along with that is eating healthy. For the past sixths months I have been MUCH better on eating healthier but there is still room for improvement. 

The next goal, as I mentioned, is daily vlogs and journaling. Since August, I think, I have been doing daily vlogs but have missed some days. This year I am going to do a vlog everyday! I am really excited about this. With the journaling, I can do what I am doing now and just explain whatever I want to discuss or I could have a purpose lol. Time will tell what I will actually do.

The final goal  says, "Teacher's give homework: DO IT". This just means I need to study harder and when I do my homework, realize it has a purpose and try and learn from it. I give about 80% for school and I need to give 100%. 

THIS IS MY YEAR.     LET'S MAKE IT GREAT.
