My life up til this point..

I have not been able to post very much because I could only post on my dad's laptop. I can now post on my computer but it is slightly annoying. Oh, I can't wait until I can get a MacBook. I will be able to blog and read while I am doing other things. Till then I have to live with a computer where words show up seconds after a type. The delay is really bothering me. I am not sure if I can blog like this. I copied into OpenOffice. It is much faster and more like real time now. Hahaha, I am so smart.
Now, on to what I have been up to.

I got my wisdom teeth pulled. It was a marvelous experience. No pain at all. Oh, and the swelling, oh it was so little you could hardly ever know it happened.. Yeah right. The first day was REALLY painful and the Vicoden did not do anything at all. I actually took some Tylenol and that made if feel better. Then later the narcotics made me sick and I threw up. One weird fact about me: I don't ever puke. I had not puked since I was maybe 11. It is not a very common thing for me, so I did not know that I was going to puke. I threw up in my hand on the way up to the bathroom. It was rather nasty. But now, I am feeling so much better. My gums back there are a little sore and it aches a little, but it is not as bad as before. I actually felt better Last Friday because I was able to go to a concert with my friends. So, that was not an awesome experience but I got through it and it is over now.

I have still been looking for a job. I am not really sure if I ever will get one. I am kind of thinking that it might be a better idea to get paid entering data online or taking surveys. This whole process has gotten frustrating and I don't feel like dealing with it any longer, but I am willing to do it to find a job. Applying and waiting... applying some more.. waiting some more... calling.. waiting.. Would you believe I have not had ONE job offer? NOT EVEN ONE! I am not sure what that means. It could either mean that they don't like me or I am not trying hard enough to impress them. I don't want to suck up to people, ya know? So, I will wait and relay on God to supply me with what I need.

I found this new site.The Experience Project. It is really cool. I like spending time on there because it is like a site where people share what is on their mind or what has been going on in their lives. I already have a few friends and I really hope I can still have time to hang out there. Yes, I am one of those geeks that hang out on the web. It really is part of my social life. The funny thing is I don't think it is any different then talking to people off line. People still need encouragement and they still want others to talk to. Yeah, I don't give my info out there though. I do realize that there are people that do bad things will good information. I am not naive in anyway but I also know that there are people like me, who find it sometimes more comfortable to talk about things when they don't see the expression on the other person's face.

COLLEGE. Oh yeah, I almost forget to tell you. I got accepted into college! Yeah, Cedarville. The same place I went for that summer program. If you want to know more about the college, you have view my posts from June. I am really looking forward to going there next fall, but not in a way that I thought I would. Ya know on TV when they jump up and down and then run to tell their friends. Well, I had a similar plan, but now most of my “friends” don't know that I got accepted. My plan was to first tell my boyfriend (hahaha) Then I would tell my family and we would all jump up and down and then go out to celebrate or something. Then my friends would find out and they would be really happy for me. I would squeal to them and they would squeal back. It would be a squeal fest, like the ones on TV where the girl tells her best friend that Brad asked her out. But, it was nothing like that. I did not jump up and down. My family was happy but they did not get together to be happy. I did not rush to the phone- or internet- to scream it to my friends. When I told my mom she got happy but not like on TV. No hugs, no “You got into college!”, it was nothing like I thought it would be like. I mean, so many people don't know that I am already set to go to college next fall. I felt like I could announce it to the world but it would not make it feel real. Maybe it is because at this time, I would be applying, not already accepted. My friends will most likely ask in April and I will get to tell them that I got accepted in August. Maybe I am making a big deal out of it, but It does not seem real almost. Like, I am still applying and searching when in truth it is all over. But, I must tell myself that I really am apart of the class of 20012 and I am really able to go to college next year.

That is what has been happening to me so far in my life. I will be trying to keep this up a little more. Just keeping watching for new posts and keep reading those who do. Hey and spread the word. There is nothing I like better then complete strangers knowing my deep thoughts. Ok, not really...
