Yes, I know it seems that I dropped off the face of the earth. But I did not. In fact, I am still very much here! Here’s what’s going on. I met with my CollegePlus coach and degree advisor. We picked my remaining courses and lined up what I needed to take. Because I switched…

September Focus: And my computer broke
Hey everybody! The best laid plans of mice and men, right? I think we will carry our September focus on into October, because blogging has not been my strong point this month! But I’m studying like crazy for a test I don’t understand I’m labeling 200 articles of children’s clothing for my mom – we…

Interrogation at the Wedding
You are at a distant friend’s wedding. While other people fill the dance floor, you linger near the water table.

While you can’t see it there, you can read it here! Let me know what you think, please!!! I bowed my head and prayed…
