Current Life Happenings: May 2017

A summary of my first week home.

Current Life Happenings: May 2017

Since classes are over for the semester and I am at home for the summer, I figured that little updates on my life would be a change to my regular not so serious content.

Last weekend I spent two days driving home; well my mom drove and I rode in the passenger seat, but that is how I got to spend the beginning of my summer break. When I got home, I needed to complete some homework that was due after the semester ended which still doesn't make sense to me. While finishing that, my cats decided to forgive me for going off to school again and leaving them at home with my family. They "helped" me by snuggling at my feet while I finished doing construction drawings for my studio class and when I needed little breaks, I forced them to cuddle with me.

Tuesday I got to watch my sister play for her high school team because I have been up at school for most of her season. They had a tough loss and a few of the girls were pretty bruised up after the game, but they played the best they could especially with all of the injuries her team has had throughout the season.

I spent most of Wednesday sleeping and resting from all of the travel I did during the weekend since I didn't get the chance to when I got home.

Thursday was the fun day I spent taking care of stuff that I needed to get done. I finally got my license renewed from when I turned 21 and I worked on writing my cover letter and resume for different architectural firms in the area that my mom helped me find the contact information for. Later that day, my sister's soccer team was scheduled to have a game but after they started warming up, thunderstorms came through the area and the game was delayed for a few hours and then cancelled because of all of the lightning.

Friday: I spent most of the day resting because I had a large knot in the muscles on my back so it hurt to move around or even turn my head.

Overall, my first week back went pretty well (besides the knot in my back), but I hope to do more in the upcoming weeks like finding an internship and practicing soccer to keep up my skills over the summer.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.

What is "talking?" How does one "talk?"

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.
