Sick...

I'm sick...*sigh*. I've been reading "Persuasion" by Jane Austen. It's pretty good, but sometimes it's hard to read. I'm doing some embroidery and some writing, but mostly on short stories. My novel has come to a stand still and I can't seem to get it going again. Hopefully I'll get it going soon and I would love to get well, also!

Tomorrow... And What I Missed Today.

Well, I didn't make it to the Library... ugh! I really wanted to go today, now I'll have to wait until Wednesday and I'm not even sure if I'll be able to go then... *sigh*. Tomorrow I work all day and then around 5 or 6pm I'm headed to the NC State Campus for RUF (Reformed University Fellowship), should be fun! Going to try to squeeze in some learning on my lunch break, but it depends on how my day goes!

Monday And Assignment #3

Today, since it's Monday, I'm going to Latin Class for an hour, then hopefully going to the Library, and then AFY (Theater) to do costumes for two and a half hours. That's what I'm doing today!

Plus, I'm working on an assignment: To Make A Blue Print Of My Dream House. It's coming along really well and I can't wait to get it done and down on paper...it's made out of shipping containers!!!

Saturday :)

Saturdays...they seem like just part of the week to me. Usually just as busy as the other week days. But thankfully today will not be quite as busy as usual. Due to the fender bender I had on Thursday which caused me to pull a muscle in my neck and shoulder I will not be going to pull costumes for "Cinderella". I'm going to my little sisters (ages 7 and 11) soccer games and inbetween those times I will be reading and working on some assignments. Well...I'm off to meet the day!

Wednesday...

Today has been tiring and a bit boring. I'm a part of an envirothon team and due to that I have to go to many classes even though I'm not studying what they teach. I'm majoring in Forestry and Wildlife, the 5 hour class was on Soils. There's also Aquatics. Soils I find very tiring and complicated and I have no idea what the teacher is talking about half the time. The room is like being in a public schoolroom. Plain walls and no source of happiness or freedom. Next week I will go for another 5 hours...fun.

Assignment #2

Assignment #2: Get an interview with an author or blogger.
I have sent an email to Deeanne Gist, one of my favorite authors and who inspires me to write. Hopefully she will respond and be willing to answer my questions and give me some good advice. I'm really hoping so!

Today...

Well, not only did I work today, but on my lunch break I also did a whole week's worth of Latin. (Which is the language that this blog's name is in). I've also read up to the second chapter in "King Solomon's Mines" and I've read about 40 pages of "Daily Life on the American Frontier". So I'm doing pretty well.

Tuesdays

Today I'm working from 8:45am - 3:30pm. I will read one of the nonfiction books on my lunch break and whenever I can. I am aiming to be done with this assignment in one month, but am pretty sure it will take longer.
