I feel like those are the themes of my life right now... although a little more of the serenity and a little less of the wisdom... although I am hoping the wisdom starts to kick in around the 20th.. ie my first day of college....

Anyway here we go....

1) Like I just said my first day of college at UH is on August 20th. I leave with both my parents on the 14th... yes that is really like 13 days from now. I am excited to go to college becuase I know I will really enjoy it. I almost have my whole room put in boxes... I don't want anything left out. I am only taking my clothes, laptop and a couple of nick nacks and pictures to decorate my dorm room with. Everything else stays... It's weird my whole childhood I felt as though I had tons of stuff but putting it all in boxes I realize how little I have collected in my first 18 years. It's not a bad thing becuase I know that is not what I find valuable anymore.

2) Luke and I am going out again.,... I don't think he thinks we ever stopped... mainly because I was with him through think and thin... I think he was pretty happy about that because he didn't complain. I am in it for the long haul and I know he is too. I love him alot... it's really hard to be away from him all the time.. especially with me going to college soon we probably won't see each other for three years... I will be in college and he in Iraq and still in the Marines for the next three years... But hopefully we will make it through the next couple of years...

3) I really enjoy working at Joann Fabrics. I can't understand why people think they have the right to be so rude to us though... most of the time we aren't the cause of the problem but they don't get it so they get mad at us... that sucks but hopefully they learn... but yeah I really enjoy the work... it is right up my alley... I am working on two quilts right now and i also started scrapbooking since I started. My coworkers are nice and they said that I could have my job back when I come home for christmas and for summers. I am really glad I work there......

4) As far as the group goes i think it will be interesting to see where and what we are all doing in four years and I look forward to seeing what we all do... I think the next stage of our lives will be hopefully rewarding...

Well that's it for now... Teal out!!!!!!!!!!
