Sometimes life feels sooooo overwhelming that I just want to sleep and pretend nothing exists but me and my covers. I think I feel nutty right now mainly because I'm living out of my car and have no real roots planted until I get into my condo on Friday (fingers crossed)!
The idea of starting school again makes me have a headache! I decided late in the game that I want to teach history to high school kids. So now with a degree from BYU I'm taking classes to get a teaching credential from UVU. I should be excited, however just thinking about the reading for the semester again gives me a headache.
I start teaching dance tomorrow. Although I made it through a year of teaching dance already, this year I'm teaching more classes and I'm not sure that I'm talented enough to really do it. I know that satan is the moron who puts these thoughts into my head but I'm just tooooo tired today to really think I can choreograph anything worth watching.
The districts that I'm teaching right now are also causing me sleepless nights. I don't know how the male teachers I work with do it. They are always saying that the sisters should just leave work at work. I'm not sure how they expect me to do that when some of these poor missionaries go through so much in a short amount of time. I'm with them almost all day everyday and they become a part of my life for three weeks. The group I have now brought a lot of issues with them. Some of them have gone home and some have fought through their MTC expreience and have become great young men. It has been very emotional for me and them.
Maybe I'm just tired. I haven't gone to the gym in a week which is horrible since I was doing so well with going every day. I really love working out. It gives me time to myself and just over all makes me feel great. Please excuse my complaining. I promise to write a happy blog entry next!

You are going to be such a great teacher! You're fun, but not the type to let kids get away with stuff. I still have a bunch of teaching textbooks from UVU if you want them.
I am right there with you, friend! I start my MPH on MONDAY!! What was I thinking... Oh, right- I need to get a better job! Reading sounds AWEFUL, but it's only a short while! I miss ya, and if you need a listening ear, I am here! Teaching is so worth it!
Man, I think that all the really cool people go to UVU after they go to BYU!! You're going to do great. It won't be as hard as BYU and you'll be in education classes, and when I took them , they were pretty easy. Besides, you're such a smarty, you won't have any problems!
Love you! You are amazing and so talented!
Ashleigh, you know how much I love you. You will do great. I had no idea you were going to UVU. I know you will do great. You know I am here for ya if you need someone to talk to, I miss ya. I have tried calling you.
Love, Tialinda
I thought you were moving back to California; I swear you said that back in May when I last saw you over at Kjell's place. But things change, I know.
Teaching History. Right on! Will you come back to Cali then and take all the ridiculous standardized testing in order to teach here?
Work hard! Sounds like its a good decision. You will be the cutest little history teacher.
Baby cakes. I wanna see some new posts. NO falling off the face of the planet, k?
