The week I went on a blogging hiatus for no apperant reason.....

Whole outfit: Apt 9 via Kohls

I have been missing. I have no good excuse. I have been lazy. Now I am back!! Today I am breaking a rule- white pants. I have never worn white pants because I am scared of them. I am afraid my butt will look huge. I am afraid something will get on my huge butt (like dirt or ketchup or something) and draw attention to my butt. But (no pun intented) I broke down and tried on a pair at Kohls last week. I love them. I love the way they make my legs look. My butt does not look huge. I am still scared I will get something on them, but I decided to try anyway. So here's to my rule breakin' attitude!!

On a totally unrelated note, I have a somewhat annoying but kinda funny story to tell. Last night in my Lit class, we got our mid terms back. Most grades weren't what students had hoped, including mine. Thankfully our professor is going to let us revise them for a higher grade. We also found out that we have to turn in a rough draft for our 10 page paper on Hamlet next week. Well that is alot of work, but its upper division college courses, so suck it up. There is this girl in my class that told the professor in a not nice tone that she didn't think she would have time to complete her revision, do her oral presentation for this class (because she decided to wait to give it), and go to the library to do research for this paper. I mean 15 other students, and she's the only one complaining. Then we find out she LIVES ON CAMPUS. So, me and my friend in that class have no sympathy for her. We both work 40 hours a week, have 2 kids, a husband, a house to take care of, church responsibilities, along with school. I have 2 other classes this semester, too. My plate is pretty full. But yet, I am thankful the professor is giving us a chance to revise our midterms, I am thankful that she wants to read our rough drafts to help us focus our papers, I am thankful I have the opportunity to attend college. I really wanted to smack this girl and let her know school is hard. Life is hard. Nothing is going to be handed to you, especially not a degree. Get over it and get to work!!!

Ok thats my rant today! Have a good one!!

Although I cannot relate to juggling a family and school, I was once a college student with no one to care for but myself and I applaud your ability to juggle it all. Just keep it up!
