Oh my, when I last posted...I don't remember. I will say I have changed some. I guess you could say I'm more mature than I used to be...to some extent. I am sitting here and watching my friends as they go through life, thinking that I will have to be there some day. That some day has turned into today. I have just realized that this summer I'll be taking pictures for my last year of high school. I have been dreaming of this moment for a long time and now I'm wondering where the time went. Before I know it, I'll be packing up for college and moving out. It makes me think of this one country song where one of the lyrics is "You'll wish it hadn't gone by so fast." I look back on my past few years of life and realize that I really don't wish it hadn't gone by so fast. Maybe I'm weird in thinking that, maybe I'm not.

College is, like I said, soon on the horizon. I'm starting to pick them out and decide which one I want. SIU is pretty cool, but the smaller price tag of the community college is beckoning to me. I will just have to cross that bridge when the time comes.
I will be a CNA by the beginning of summer this coming year, so hello job that pays well. I love working with the people in a hospital, as well as the hustle and bustle. It keeps me from getting bored. The nursing home, however, has that lovely atmosphere that makes me think I might work there. We'll see...I'll keep that updated.
School at the community college is going well so far. I managed to pass my first college semester, so I hope to keep that going. A new semester will start in January, as will new adventures and opportunities for me. The home-schooling stuff isn't too bad either, so I feel pretty confident in everything regarding my education.

I do believe that is it, for now. Another post on some other things will appear within the next few days, so keep reading!
Cheerio!
