Busy...

Wow! I have been so busy that I have not written in over a month....
Here is a little update on my life!
Right now I am helping teach fifth grade. I love it! I thought that maybe fifth grade was a little too old for me but I absolutely love it. I spend every week day here from about 8:30-4:00. I don't work at GC during the week since I am usually wiped out from being at school all day. It's a lot of work but I usually get it all done while I'm at school. It's nice to have my evenings open and to do things that I really enjoy. My class is so great- 17 fifth graders that are all VERY different. I have learned so much so far and can't wait to student teach. I am actually done at this school May 13th so I do not have much time left here :(
I also bought a new car the day before Easter. It's an '08 Kia Spectra and only had 8,900 miles on it when I bought it. It's a darker blue and sparkles! I love it :) Unfortunately I am pretty broke from buying it. I did sell my old Corolla to a guy at work. I'm sad but over it because of my great new car!
I got the job at a new restaurant this summer so I am SUPER excited for a summer of fun and money making! I get to work outside EVERY day and I also get to wear shorts and a T-shirt. My friend told me that it's super laid back and that the people that go there love to tip! I think it will be a great experience, plus I need a break from my other job. My last day is this Monday. I'll miss the people but I know that I will still see them.
I am living with my two friends next year and we got a GREAT deal for our rent. I can't wait to move in and start decorating and getting things situated. I will miss my current roomies tho :( We have been through a lot the last two years and have become very close. I know that they will be coming over to my new house though and we will still talk a lot.
There are so many changes taking place in my life right now. They are very exciting but also overwhelming. I think this summer will be a huge stepping stone in my life and will really be a learning experience. I can't wait for what's ahead!!
More later....
