Must Love Art

Seriously, when I signed up to do the layout for The Student Magazine, I did not sign up for artwork. I don't like pictures/artwork interspersed in my text, so I don't want to make the magazine look like that. Now, I know everyone else likes artwork, but not me! So everyone else should do it my way.

I was up until 3am, working on layout/doing nothing. Then I went to sleep and slept straight 'til 9 and then off and on until 1 when I had to pee so I got up. Now I'm just chatting on MSN and checking Facebook and email messages, and then I'll read for a bit.

Chris is in court RIGHT NOW to fight his driving ticket. I hope he wins. It was his fault, but he was worried about getting hit from behind. No one got hurt, there were hardly any damages to the lady's car - and he's already suffered enough. Let the boy drive!

This evening I am going to the mall with Amanda. She has to get her boyfriend's Christmas present, plus she misses me, so we're going to hang out. It's almost Christmas time! Amanda goes to the college, so she finished exams over a week before I did. I'm done, Chris is done today, and all our sad little friends are still working away. Ha ha ha.

It's Just Life: How Hard Can It Really Be?

I can never have a blog for more than one purpose. I had an "emo life" blog, on Livejournal. I had my Disney blog and my wheelchair blog on Wordpress. I haven't had a blog just for LIFE in quite a long time. So, here it is. This is just for life: my life.

We're finding our voice while we're living our dreams

My life is great. Seriously. I don't think a lot of people can say they're truly happy. Despite all the challenges of the last year, I'm really happy with where I've gotten. Of course there are things I change - like I'd like to have a million bucks - but the 66 cents in my bank account isn't stopping me from doing anything (except chartering a yacht/jet, etc.). I'm done my third semester of school, and even though it was a hectic BUSY semester, I think I've come out on top and will get some pretty good grades. And if I don't - oh well! I passed everything, I'm very confident of that, so the credits are mine. 

I love my Sparks and my Sunday School. The kids make me happy, and I like being as involved as I can be with a thousand different things, so they add to the list. Spend a couple hours with the kids, then send 'em home all hyped up and excited: my kinda thing!

The Student Magazine is my largest project to date. I'm putting it all on paper (well, computer screen, then paper) this week. I'm very excited to see the final product. I've worked really hard, and so has Chris, Jazz and Peter, my partners in crime.

My knee is getting better and better. I'm so proud of myself, as conceited as that might sound, because I've come so far. In August and September and the beginning of October to see me standing was a rare thing. Now I don't want to sit down!

So yeah. Life is good. I miss Disney and my friends from Florida (and all over the world!) but I know when the time is right I'll get back there and see them again, so it doesn't trouble me too much.

Christmas is coming. I have 20 days off school. I'm VERY MUCH looking forward to next semester and completing my second year of University. I'm also looking for a new job: McDonalds is wearing on me, but it's money in my pocket right?

All in all, I can't complain. 

Throw your hands up, 'cause we never gave in, and we'll sing hallelujah, we sang hallelujah, hallelujah.
