    And Theres Another Failure…

    by  • June 25, 2010 • Ramblings

    Well, I managed to completely forget about blogging last night. I have no excuse, really, because I was home and had plenty of time to get it done. Ugh, this frustrates me to no end. It’s my 3rd time trying to blog for 30 days straight, and my third unsuccessful try. Things like this make me want to go and delete my entire website from my cPanel. A bit extreme? Probably…I just don’t understand why I cannot remember to do something every day for such a short period of time!

    I have nothing else to say tonight…maybe I’ll pick up with Project Blog tomorrow.

    Halfway There!

    Today marks my 15th consecutive day of blogging for the month. Ecstasy’s Project Blog has kept me motivated to write a little something every day…and I am really enjoying it. Though, today’s blog is going to be a bit boring, as it’s done in a hurry so I can finish the writing assignment I’m currently working on and study for tomorrow Statistics final. After tomorrow though, I should be free to sit down and actually write something good!

    I took my last Children’s Literature test today, made an 84. Not very happy about it, but I took too long looking through the book for the answers and almost ran out of time. That’s what I get for not actually reading the chapters beforehand! I’m still waiting on two grades to be posted online for that class, but I’m pretty confident I made an A in there. That just leaves me to worry about Statistics. I had a 96 average before taking yesterday’s test, which will not get back before the final tomorrow. I hate that it’s a cumulative final…there’s just too much stuff to pile into one test! My professor gave us a review test though, so hopefully if I look back over it tonight, everything will stay with me until the test in the morning.

    So, my new cell phone was supposed to arrive today, but thanks to USPS’s crappy service, the Express Mail I requested (but didn’t pay extra for, thank goodness!) is pretty much meaningless. The package arrived in my city at 11am, was attempted to be delivered at 11:40am (I was at school), and then sat on someone’s truck until closing time today. Around 4pm, the tracking information was updated to say they left a notice. I went by the post office at 3:30pm to try to pick it up, and they said a carrier still had it. Once I saw the update to the tracking, I searched my front porch and mailbox for a notice….there isn’t one out there. Hopefully it won’t be a pain in the butt to go pick it up at the post office tomorrow…

    Winding Down

    Summer semester will be over Wednesday, and its end cannot come soon enough. My Children’s Literature class ends tomorrow with the last test (there is no final), and I have a Statistics test tomorrow as well. Then my Statistics final early Wednesday morning, and I will be able to enjoy the summer a bit more. I hope to tackle lots of writing projects and lounge by the pool until I get too miserable to do either. I’ve been using swimming as a good way to get exercise, as it is a good break in the monotony of a treadmill. I’ve been to my stepdad’s mom’s pool 3 times in the last week, and haven’t burned a bit. *knock on wood* Mary Kay sunblock is awesome, especially on my whiteness.

    Finishing the semester will also free me up to do better on my blog commenting. I’ve gone 14 days straight with blogging, but I’m slacking on returning comments and cleaning out my Google reader. I hope to remedy both this week. I’d also like to find new blogs to read, as some in my feed reader haven’t been updated in months. It’s always interesting to find new blogs that catch my eye!

    While I am writing this, Sawyer is kicking up a storm. He has gotten so much more active within the past 2 weeks. He especially loves to move around in there when I lay down to go to sleep. I’m thinking he may be a night owl like his mama! ;) I love that he moves a lot though, as it lets me know things are okay inside the womb. I am really ready to get to the doctor at the end of this month for the glucose test. I have craved so many carbs this pregnancy that I am worried my sugar may be high. Hopefully things will be okay though!
