Day One

So today was the first day of new experiences. It went well...OK so laugh at me. I was late to class because I went a different route to school, was sprayed with water because I took my car to get washed and was dropped from my English 102 class because I was "over flow" so.......I guess you could say at least I wasn't bored!!! Now I sit at work with nothing to do and piles of homework waiting for me at home! Sigh*

I am happy to tell I was offered a position working for one of my professors. Her name is sally Kroelinger and she is the Design Department head at Mesa Community College. The job is a Materials Librarian. I would visit the suppliers and order new sample packages then when they come in I would be in charge of displaying and organizing. So cross your fingers and pray real hard that I will get the position. Chat later!!!

Thoughts....

What does Interior Design mean to me? Well.... I hope that I could possibly bring a feeling of comfort and warmth to a persons home or special spot. Creating the possibility for someone to dream. Tearing down the white walls and splashing wonderful color. Re-purposing family heirloom's and adding that desperately needed personal touch! Ahh...just thinking of the smile that could be placed on someones face because I was able to touch one small part in there life. That my friend is what I want to be! That is what I dream to do!

So now I'm in school. At least four years of learning and acquiring new skills! Four years of hard work...mentally and physically.....but most of all emotionally. Balancing church life with family life and mixing in all the school time....no wonder I am crazy! ......but I love it, every second of the madness!!

Good ol' Monday

Whats up readers? I have made up my mind. I will for the next three months try and do something new or different each day. So, it could be a new hair style, route to school or a different word as long as it changes from day to day. I feel that this will be a learning experience! How many of us out there still do the same old same old every day, week or month! It is time for a new more mature Kara to spring forth! As Ashely Smith has said, "Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.”

Sigh....

Hey.....Bloggers....what a day. I do believe that I felt each and every emotion today. From high to low, side to side. I might even be admitted if this keeps up. Every decision I have made in my life up to where I am today has been a example of careful thought and prayer, But today is a different story. I find my self in this place where I am rethinking and wondering. Is this bad? Is this good??? Or am I crumbling??? Many souls would say that in life we are always searching and that we can always do better. Do I want to do better? yes. Do I want to change? maybe. I guess what I am trying to type out is that I am in a spot in life where my body, soul and mind are in neutral. Running but not going anywhere. Alive but not feeling. Hungry but not satisfied. OK, OK enough with the metaphors !!!!

Round two ;)

I am back~

So many decisions have to be made at my age and I am only 18 1/2!! Yes the half is important because being a second year college student requires me to be just a little bit older!:)

My English 102 teacher, Mr. Ron Fanning looks like the 80's fitness guy Richard Simmons!!! He walked into class today wearing tan shorts (if you can call them that, the were so tiny that I was forced to look twice!) a pink polo with a thick brown belt. To top off the outfit off he added white tube socks with Keds! You should have seen my face! I wanted to scream! He looked ridiculous!! But it was when he started to talk that I really lost it. His voice was low and soft. Like we were babies and he needed to whisper. By the end of class we were all leaned so far forward that we were numb from the waist down. I dread next week! Two times a week with this chap!!! I will need serious prayer to make it through!!! Oh yeah, its a research class so we all need to spend extra time with him to discuss a topic! Yay!! I am just so thrilled! ;)

Ahhh....Thursdays

Hey All!

Just sitting here, school is done...work is done and I have no idea what to do next! I know that I should be reading the next chapter in my Color and Design book but......:) I think I will cram it in to my already rushed morning! It really is good to be back to school but to tell the truth I really wish it were December and we just finished finals!! Hehehe...skip all the learning and jump right into winter break! Not saying that I dislike summer but the 109 to 112 temp is really getting old!!!
