It's been a long, it's been a long way home
It's been a while hasn't it Dreamwidth? I guess that's mostly due to real life hitting me in the face and hitting me hard.
First thing's first though. School has been going really well thus far. I have A's in all of my classes, and my practicum supervisors love me. For those that don't know, practicum is basically an internship for education majors. NKU has three consecutive semesters of this--the admissions practicum (what I am in now), and two professional semesters--all of which lead up my last semester of college where I will be student teaching. Anyway, it's all going well and it all just furthers my belief that I was meant to teach.
On the not so positive side of things, I just got a dog. Now, some of you might be saying "But Crystal, that's kind of awesome." And it would be...If my mom hadn't decided that we had to get rid of her. This is because Virgil, our dachshund, is jealous and antagonizes her--and he finally pushed her enough that she nipped at him during a play fight. He wasn't hurt but it freaked my mom and brother out enough that they demanded I get rid of her...The kicker is that the older lady that gave her to us just asked if we could make sure she sees her again before she dies...I...feel terrible. Especially since I love Roxy so much already.
My mother has also brought up some delightful curve-balls of judgement. She says I have no human connections with anyone or anything because I "love" my computer too much. I'm sorry then that most of my friends aren't in Cincinnati, and that the internet is the main way we keep contact because you are a freak that monitors who I call and when and for how long. I'm sorry that you have told me before that I wasn't allowed to bring "those people" into your house when it came to my gay friends. I am so damn sorry that you are such a creeper that you stalk my friends facebooks and that I am too embarrassed to introduce you to any of my other friends because of this outrageous behavior. And I am sorry that you asre so judgmental about who I choose to be friends with that I have decided it might be better for me not to have any friends at all.
Wow...this entry has no structure and has gone on some tangents but...it's an update at least?
