This week has been pretty crazy. I had three tests in big subjects. Oh yes. Ethnicity and Diversity....he taught us new material that night. Hahaha I love collage history classes. It was a pretty decent test though. I won't say how I thought I did becuase I don't want to give myself bad luck but it wasn't that bad. I had a STATs test. Everyone thinks they failed it. I hate that class. I am not fond of my teacher. She needs to retire and crawl in a little black hole where she can't hurt people every again becuase she has no people skills. I hate it when teachers are socially inept...they should make you take a tests on that before you can teach. God knows they test you on everything BUT that. Thank you to our current administration. Then I had a Sociology test. Who knows when we'll get it back. It was a lot of essays and he went to party down south this weekend at a wedding so we probibly won't get then till wendsday. .: Life's more painless, When you're brainless:. I also helped at field experiance again this week. I love field, and my school. The teachers are great. The school is just big ewnough but they have enough rooms/teachers so that classes are still small. The teachers know the kids and they have a good relationship. At least in the history department. I got to teach my first week in my one class and then he had me prepare an activity for the kids this week. All I can say is how incredibly lucky I am for that. Most teachers don't so that. I know a lot of people just sit for their field...I'm actually gettign to teach. It's so uplifting. I could see myself enjoying teaching teenagers for the rest of my life right now. I mean it's hard...I had a hard time just with the review game. People, ask me about it when I come home or when you next see me becuase they're stories to be told face to face. lol. I also get hit on by the kids. Yah, Chad and Julie where right. It's kinda disturbing and funny at the same time becuase they're like 'Hi, where did you transfer from?" and I'm like "I'm a sophmore at COLLAGE." .:Now I know it isn't fair:. So I was missing people this week. Oh yes, I was homesick. It seems like everyone is just seeing everyone else and I'm just here. But I'm not just here...I'm making a life. I can't go off campus every weekend. I can't just be like "Oh hey I'm gonna drop everything today." I mean I can drop things for most of the day but then I have to do work that I need toget onlin e for my women's class or something. I also like it here. I mean I love it at my school. I like helping teach at field experiance. I always feel like I'm letting people down by not coming home or that if I can't make a ton of time to spend with them while I'm home. I was talking to Anthony about it last night and he made a very good point. I don't break promises. I don't commit to anything. When someone asks me to come home I have stressed all of this first month that I have to wait and see how everything is. Then I get back to them as soon as possible. If I haven't made a promise then I haven't really let someone down. It made me feel a bit better becuase my mom had told me how so many people where at the game and I wasn't. I also realized that people can always come and see me. I was in mass and I was thinking this morning and suddenly it struck me. Like I'd invited people up before but this whole "come spend time with me" thing is a two-way street and sometimes I think it would be easier for people to come see me since I do have so much work. I mean and it's not even always school-work. Sometiems it's work, work or it's for clubs and stuff. I mean it's all important though. Like club things raise awarness or help people in some other way. Since thats the reason why i join ed those clubs, to help people. Which reminds me, this friday SAPPA (students for the advancment of political awarness) will be having an open mic night on Friday night, on campus 6:30 pm doors open and 7 pm we will start. EVERYONE IS INVITED! I don't think that we're charging...a donation is encouraged but it c an be a can of food for the kids at the St. Joe's Center, which this whole thing benifits. I will be helpign set up AND reading some of my poetry. Yah. I'm gonna try and write soemthing new if I have time. Hahaha. Yah just let me know if you need a place to stay though so I can get you a room if you're a boy. I also worry about relationships. I know I've changed so miuch and other people have changed or are changin g right now. It's hard to keep things going. I dunno. It just takes some work and a shitload of understanding. So um yah this entry makes no sense. I'm really tired. I need to do wash cuase I spilled ice-cream on my only pair of jeans. I miss people but I'm worried about everything and I don't feel like going home. I'm probibly going to dress like Hermione for Holloween. Yah well so I'm done. PS I named our Freshmen, Kristine...it's Meko. GLINDA I've heard it said That people come into our lives for a reason Bringing something we must learn And we are led To those who help us most to grow If we let them And we help them in return Well, I don't know if I believe that's true But I know I'm who I am today Because I knew you: Like a comet pulled from orbit As it passes a sun Like a stream that meets a boulder Halfway through the wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you I have been changed for good ELPHABA It well may be That we will never meet again In this lifetime So let me say before we part So much of me Is made of what I learned from you You'll be with me Like a handprint on my heart And now whatever way our stories end I know you have re-written mine By being my friend: Like a ship blown from its mooring By a wind off the sea Like a seed dropped by a skybird In a distant wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you: GLINDA Because I knew you: BOTHI have been changed for good ELPHABA And just to clear the air I ask forgiveness For the things I've done you blame me for GLINDA But then, I guess we know There's blame to share BOTH And none of it seems to matter anymore GLINDA ELPHABA Like a comet pulled Like a ship blown From orbit as it Off it's mooring Passes a sun, like By a wind off the A stream that meets Sea, like a seed A boulder, half-way Dropped by a Through the wood Bird in the wood BOTH Who can say if I've been changed for the better? I do believe I have been changed for the better? GLINDA And because I knew you: ELPHABA Because I knew you: BOTH Because I knew you: I have been changed for good.
