i found myself in wonderland

♪♫ Alice - Avril Lavigne

I'm back! Its been a very busy couple weeks. I started back up at school and things have been amazing! For those who don't know, I take child and youth care at my local community college. Instead of exams, my class must run a camp for kids ages 5 - 12 during March break. So, in preparation for this, we all apply for different positions within the camp. The top position is the coordinators, followed by team leaders and then camp leader. I applied for team leader because I wanted a leadership position and guess what?! I got it! I have four camp leaders and two groups of kids that I will oversee/support. I also do a lot of behind the scenes stuff! I'm so excited!

I've also been really good with getting my assignments done. I've actually gotten most of them done a day or two before they were due. Wooo! I feel so productive. Also, in April/May myself and my class will go off for our internship (our last placement that we will hopefully be hired from). I applied for the youth shelter that I did one of my placements at. I hope I get it! I feel like the next month and a half will go by super fast. I feel so excited and nervous. I just keep thinking about how amazing it will be when I graduate!

On a less happy note, I have fallen on the ice on my street three times now. I have a bunch of bruises on my legs. Ugh. I keep trying to avoid the ice but its everywhere and it blends in with the road. I don't see it most of the time. I'm hoping I don't fall anymore. Its really upsetting! Another upsetting thing is that I need to get my driver's license in the next year and I have driving anxiety. I'm going to start working on it next week and I'm worried. The reason I need it is because most jobs in my field requite it and I plan on moving in with my boyfriend. He lives in a small town with no bus system, so I need to drive everywhere. I hope all goes well!

To cheer myself up, I've done a small bit of shopping in the past week. I ordered The Love Witch on DVD and a small black coffin shelf. They are both things from my wish list and I have enough extra money, so I thought why not?!


I also took a cute new picture of myself. I have been feeling really good about my appearance lately! Dieting has been a bit hard though. I've eaten really healthy, but still am eating more junk food than I'd like to be. I'm trying to go easy on myself though.


I have also been thinking lately that I need to drink more tea with my fancy tea cups and I need to read more fantasy books, like Alice in Wonderland. I used to do that all the time, but its been a while since I did it. I want to get back to the things I used to love doing!

  1. I'm glad to hear the that about school, and the kids camp. I feel like that is something that had to take a lot of patience and skill, especially with children.

    I hope that the internship goes really well for you and you get what you want out of it. That whole time going fast thing is so true, I remember my first year on the ship when I was in the Navy another female told me that your first year will go really fast, and I didn't believe her but it did. It's just interesting how that works.

    I hope that you feel better, that is rough. I feel like that a lot of people don't really understand anxiety, and a lot of people also throw that word around, but I totally understand how you are feeling, I hope that you don't let your anxiety push you too fast either, just work on doing it on your own pace.

    I think eating healthy is one of those things that takes time, and it's more about the little steps you take to make them habits. I feel like that cutting everything out as once can be too much, and make it easy to fall back. So, I think how it sounds like your doing is great. That is a really cute selfie, your a very pretty women.
