Another $20,000 in mini scholarships from UT for my first year alone!?
I’m lovin this school more and more ! Hook ‘em ! :D
SOSOSO INCREDIBLY BLESSED<3
Which means I am one of 200 kids in the U.S. who will be awarded $10,000 or 50 kids who will be awarded $20,000 for college ! Hehe, I feel so extremely blessed.
So I told my dad about it, and his face was extremely serious and straight at first, and then after about 5 seconds, he grabbed my mom’s hand with a huge grin on his face and said, “5,000 for you and 5,000 for me!” And they both started giggling/laughing and my mom started jumping like a fool. LOL ! Geeee, thaaaanks mom and dad. -.-“
Hehe, I guess busting your butt for these darn scholarship applications really does pay off !! :D
*dad wakes up from a nap
Mom: Why do you look so upset?
Dad: I had a bad dream..
Mom: About?
Dad: I dreamt that I was visiting you, but then I had to leave to go home to my wife.
*LOL ! Whaaat!?!?!? Hahahahah !
Mom: Hahaha ! So does this mean you want a girlfriend!?
Dad: No, only you.
I’ve been kind of crumbling lately. I’ve tried to be strong, but sometimes a girl just needs to fall, right?
I was sitting in the foyer-area of my house tonight. Just on the ground, thinking about everything. My mom came out and sat next to me. We talked and stuff, and I told her what was going on at school. She said, “I’m not worried about whether or not you’ll be number 1. I’m just worried about you,” her voice cracked, “Seeing you sad makes me sad. I haven’t been able to do anything all day because I’ve been so worried about you.”
Even when I try to hide from them, my parents see right through me.
Our conversation shifted to… boys. Heheh, or rather, just a boy. :)
My dad came out and asked what was going on. We both smiled and said, “Nothing!” He said, “Don’t make me feel lonely in this house!” My mom and I laughed. My dad said, “Fine, I’m going away, then.” My mom said, “Nooo !! Come back !!!!!” with her arm outstretched. He walked off and my mother and I laughed again. Hehe. We continued talking, and then out of nowhere, we see my dad with a broom in his hand sweeping the floor about 3 yards from where we were sitting! LOL WTH!? My dad doesn’t sweep the house..!? This happened a few more times - he was getting water, he was going to the restroom, he was watching the TV on mute, etc. Hahahah, he’s so silly.
Then my little sister came out and started talking to me about that boy. Haha, and just cracking jokes and such and such.
Yeah, my family’s pretty great.
But I’m not really sure of what lies beyond it, and that kind of scares me.
Ahhhh, sweet freedom !
Hehehhehehehehe, goodbye you wretched DPS office ! See you in 6 years !

Yeah, I am missing first period..
I am in need of His guidance.
I don’t know where to look or which way to turn. I don’t know what to think.
Why am I so chicken?
I just want to know what to do. I just want to be completely happy with my decision.
