Doing this a day early so I am on top of my game. How was your week? Cant believe tomorrow is Memorial Day the first official day of the Summer. And May is nearly done. It is now Summer it has not hit me yet that all I have before me is work and freedom.
1. My new phone came on Wednesday. I miss my old phone. I am mad that unlike my new phone my old phone did not keep memos on file, back up my capture or my screenshots. IF it had I would not be so upset. I lost so much because it backed up so little. I am GLAD I figured out how to back up my photos weeks ago or that would suck even more so. Little things I am learning about having a smart phone for the first time and then losing it not even 6 months later...
2. Did the GYM twice last week. I would have gone a 3rd time but my parents decided to take me later to work on Friday. I appreciated the extra sleep but I am sad that my next for sure time to workout wont be for another week. I was so used to the gym twice a week or more and now next week just once. Sigh. I miss you GYM. We had such good times last week the twice I went.
3. So an odd thing happened and a bad thing happened Sunday night last week. My computer lost the ability to use the keyboard. Some of the keys work some do not. So I bought a keyboard to plug into my laptop and that is how I will be till I replace this old thing. Had it almost 5 years. Never had a laptop need this. But since I googled it I found out others too have had this odd issue. Also our router died and had to be replaced. So I had to wait till I got home on Monday night when it fixed to do my homework due before midnight NOT fun. And I lost some points as I could not do all the things I had due in an hours time. Oh well I tried
4. School is done. I will know my grades soon. As much fun as it was thinking about an internship this Summer it is probably not happening. I applied for 3 and the last one has not gotten back to me. I could still try for the one on the campus but it is probably not going to happen. Sad. So no Summer school for me. No catalog so when I register for Fall classes in 2 weeks have no idea what I am taking. I will be sad to not have this but Summer is still fun hopefully
5. Work has not been so great. Less hours all the time. I have no idea why they continue to do this. I have done nothing wrong. I sadly wanted to work an internship around this for the Summer. Now all I got is work. I might try to volunteer at a tv station. Anything better then nothing. So I am unsure still if I am changing my schedule yet or will keep it with two days off.
Well saw Pirates of the Caribbean 5. Not a bad way to end the series. I love those films every single one of them. Sure the first one is the best but I love them all. I hope they do a spin off with Will I would so see that. Have a great week everyone. A Happy Memorial Day. And a great last few days in May. See you all in June!!
Every weekend I write down the top 5 things that happened to me from the week it ends on (usually Sundays). Stole/borrowed the idea from author Sarah Dessen. Very fun!

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, May 21st 2017)
Welcome! Not been the best week for me. But hopefully YOURS has been better. When life hands you lemons make lemonade or whatever saying that makes you feel better. I'm just trying to get through this and find what lessons I am supposed to learn.
1. School is almost over! One more week just ONE more week and we are done. This week that I am writing in will be my last. I am unsure at this point if I am doing an internship. I have two in mind I am going to apply for late but still tomorrow I hope. If they don't work out then give up. Summer classes begin May 30th I have not even signed up yet to intern or gotten the $20 needed to register to do so. I wanted so badly for me to be able to do an internship this Summer. But so far not looking like it. I am lazy and sometimes the ability to do such a thing just is hard for me. I am not young even if I look it. Anyways. School is okay I think. I am getting a B in my photo class. I pray for a C in the end. I still have SO MUCH due this week SO MUCH. 2 more photo projects due tomorrow. Then my final project which is oddly enough NOT my photos due on Thur. Also due tomorrow one more discussion board and one more quiz. Then Thursday in my actual in person class is our final. Tuesday is our final projects due we having a party. Watching our clips. I hope my group got our project done. Reminds me I was going to write someone from the group tell them why I was not in class on Thursday.
2. Speaking of which. Thursday I went to get off the Sprinter AND LEFT MY PHONE ON THERE! I turned around realizing it gone WAY TOO LATE. The Sprinter was leaving and so was my phone. It is Sunday. It went away on Thursday. I have not had a phone for 4 days now. If it is not back by tomorrow at the lost and found it is gone for good. We have to replace it. I had it less then 6 months. I am trying to not blame anyone but myself. It is NOT Gods fault I did this it was me. I should have just stayed home like the little voice told me. I was unsure if it was the little man or my being so tired I just wanted more sleep. We just had a party to help with and our last actual day of class. So I hopped on the other Sprinter took it back to the OS station using the wifi on my ipod the only thing I had with me to tell my mom, sister, teacher and even contact the people for the public transportation what happening. We reported it, checked the Sprinter when it rolled back in that station 30min after me and realized it not there. My life sucks
3. My week began bad too. On Monday nearly a week ago now I was getting ready for work we doing the GYM first then work. I already late. I went to put my foundation on and the bottle yes made of glass as most are fell on the ground. I didn't think it like broke. It has fallen before and this time it bounced off my foot so it was not like straight to the ground. Well it did break badly. When I picked it up I had no idea it was broken and I cut my hand open. I was freaking out got ready came out and my mom had to shake the rug outside I had no idea so much glass on it. In the mean time a nice sized piece had stuck to the bottom of my foot traveled with me to the front of the house and so when I went to put my sandle on I screamed. Cut my foot open. I hate Mondays! Mom paid for a new bottle but I went with a softer kind I can squeeze out used a coupon. I might never use a bottle again. Sigh
4. Did the GYM twice last week. Monday was like 30min for the whole trip so 20min on the floor. I did the bike 5, elliptical 10 and treadmill 5. I had to work so that was that. On Friday I didn't work till 6 so I had enough time for more treadmill, same for my other 3 and even some weights. Oddly enough I was tired after but didn't feel as bad that night. Maybe I am finally getting in shape again HURRAY! This coming week promises 3 days again like 2 weeks ago
5. Work has been slower. I mean I had a regular 6 hour shift on Sunday, then both Monday & Friday were later shifts only 4 to 4.5 hours. Wednesday I came in for a shocker fill in shift mid day 4hrs which meant I got in at 10 left at 2 haven't done one of those in forever. I got to ride the Sprinter back yeah. Saturday I did a mid 8hr not bad. I like change. I hate closing but know the next two weeks it is all I am doing. My job is such a mystery. I am top on ICs in my store, for sure got bronze again for 3rd time but they cut my hours right and left and refuse to give me more. I haven't given a summer schedule yet as I am still trying for an internships. But still why job why. By end of year I pray for a miracle for a new job. This one is going no where fast and I need one in my career no more retail if possible yes please
Well that is all for now. May is nearly done. One more of these for this month. Heat waves this weekend. Summer is coming. I am ready truly I am no matter what it holds. And miracles for my phone this week and finishing school right. Have a good one everyone. See you all soon!

The Weekend 5 (Sunday, May 14th 2017)
Happy Mothers Day to all the Moms out there!! My kids might be furry and they might be the only kids I will ever have but I am blessed. Sorry this is late it was that kind of weekend
1. School has been kinda blah. I am at the end and I can feel it. I have 2 weeks left. Our final project should be filmed again by now and being edited. I am not really part of this part of it. I was there for part 1 then that was kinda a mess. This past week we were in the studio for the two in studio groups. It was almost like being on Palomar Live I surely miss that show. Too bad I cant do it again. Unless they let me intern there in the Fall. The issue would be I want to take radio which I failed to take a year ago. I truly don't know when I will be done going to school here. I get what I can while working around it. Photo class doing okay. But really need to step it up for my last 2 projects, re do some old ones and hope I am going to pass with at least a B. Heres hoping
2. Work was busy this past week but not as busy as it could be. I had 2 full shifts around 3 smaller ones. SO I was really just going to the GYM before work (more below) and doing lower shifts. Next week wont be much better nor this one. Sigh. Makes no sense I am top on IC's a good employee and crap hours for no reason at all.
3. GYM this week I did it 3x. Which was nice. Sure it was tiring. GYM then work 3x all week long. But I love it too. The pain sure. It tiring sure. But worth it I am sure. I cant just go to school and work I need to work out. Plus I pay $20 for this per month its gotta be worth it.
4. Its been 7 years since the trip to CALI from TN that changed it all. We thought we were supposed to move closer to home not closer to the east coast. Who knows had we not come out in 2010 how different things might have been. Just a what if I will never truly know. It was a fun trip mind you. Interesting with the dog and a plane. But yeah
5. Its been 11 years since Grandma Swank died. I miss her every day. When May 10th rolls around I am just reminded another year she is in heaven while we are waiting to see her again. I miss her. Her encouragement's and believing in me when no one else did. I love her. I miss her. I will always till we meet again :(
Well that is all for now. I gotta do some homework then gym and work again. See you all next weekend. Have a nice week!!

The Weekend 5 (Sunday,May 7th 2017)
Welcome to May! And cheers to me for getting this up on time. Not easy mind you. But lucky me I work later and my parents are taking me so I can do this before hand. Not like its not fun doing it when I am way tired after work and at home.
1. Work this past week busy. Not so much this week. This coming week I am down a full 10 hours less for no reason at all. Lovely. Need a new job. Last week was busy. I worked 5 full shifts. By full I mean my shifts were between 6 and 8hrs long. Last Sunday was no fun. Short handed and we left very late. Hopefully today wont be like that! But either way I am barely there today so even if it is bad I wont be there for the full fun of it.
2. School is going alright. I am up in the air how I am doing for my photo class. I do well on the quizs and discussion boards. But cant seen to get a full point set for any of my actual photo assignments. I guess its not easy using a new camera. But this IS a beginner class one of many I hope to take. Either way I am trying hard. I hope to get a C in the class at least. I want to take the next one up from this in the Fall in person. So hopefully this will work out. I love taking pictures but its something else doing it for class and learning things I am unsure if I will remember past doing them for assignments. How my brain works. In person my other class our class cancelled Tuesday. Then I find out our hard work interview was out of focus so 2 or 3 from my group (not me) will go back up for that part again. I suffered for the last time dirty feet, sore muscles and a bad sunburn that took 3 or 4 days to heal. Thur we practiced for this weeks 2 in person interview groups. But we were done very fast. Each got 2 run thrus we were done with class an hour after we got there. I didn't get a job I just sat there watching and trying to not fall asleep lol. I miss PL and cant believe this Fall marks 2 years since I did that show. And I am still here at PC and not gotten an internship yet even if I do try and apply sigh.
3. Did the GYM on Tuesday night. Only about 45min. I was so tired from my walk around down town earlier that day I didn't do a whole lot. But it was nice being back. I wish we could have stayed longer. But got a late start had tv shows to watch. So there you go. Glad we went. This week and next I plan plenty of trips before work as I have shorter evening shifts that will leave me down there hours before I begin work so I can do that. Yeah.
4. We saw Guardians of the Galaxy vol2 on Thursday night. Thankfully our experience at the theater was better then our last late night showing when our film cut out for 5 min and had to be reround and people were fighting in the mean time about it. Ha. Well the movie was good very intense is a good way to put it. Kinda creepy too. The things that come from comic books wow. But funny too. I want a baby Groot yes please
5. May 1st & 2nd marks 7 years since the floods in Nashville. I will always remember the events that unfolded right in our very state our area and how much it changed everything. It was so sad to see it all on tv. SO many affected. Nashville was never the same after that.
Well that is all folks. I am off to get ready for work. Been raining today. Yes really raining which is nuts. Its May. We haven't had actual rain like this for 2 months. We were just getting to hot weather I was wearing shorts to school and flip flops. Now I am unsure how this week will pan out. Over this man. Hope you have a great week. See you next weekend!

Good bye April hello May. That is the way we say good bye to this month. I like April for a lot of reasons. But I guess it is time to say good bye

2. Work is busy. Just lots of hours. 5 days a week. Inbetween school too on some days. But I like working a lot. Just tiring never having time off. It will change once we his Summer. Till then I keep pressing on with what I got.
3. Went to Disneyland for the last time this year till maybe September. Sister pass gonna expire. So we went on Tuesday for 12hrs longest ever done in one day. And had a good time. Rode a lot of rides. And had a lot of fun. Glad I am not sick this time.
4. 8 years ago we did our first volunteer race in TN. It was also my first picture on Facebook from my phone. It was so much fun. We tried to come back but never did volunteer for it again. Good times
