don't stay up late....

because if you're me, you'll sleep in and almost miss your business exam.
Yeesh!
At least my professor was pretty cool about it. She actually mentioned when I stepped into class that she was worried about me!
After I finished the test and we received our group projects, I was about to leave the classroom when my professor said that her daughter was named Madeleine, and I was the first student she'd had with the same name.
We talked about the different spellings for a little bit, and why she named her daughter Madolyn (I think that's how she said she spells it), and it was her grandmother that had the same name.
I am trying to push out of the rushing, always moving phase and take more pleasure in small talk with people and strangers.
That's something I think my dad passed on to me...the mentality that we should always be hurrying.
I'm glad I have the patience of my mother and her warmth and humanity.
I'm going to try and ensure that my children understand that they need to take their time through life, and enjoy it.
After all, what's a life if you're always stressed and running about?

I can't remember the last time I completely slept through all three of the alarms i'd set on my phone.
Looks like now i'll have to set my actual alarm clock rather than just my phone. :-\
Usually my body is pretty good at detecting what time I should be awake.
Sometimes, i'd experiment and not set an alarm (not during the week of course) but I'd tell myself before I fall asleep what time I'd want to wake up, and often I do wake up right around the time wanted.
I wonder how that stuff works. And if it's just coincidence, or if we really can control our bodies simply with thoughts.

I'm getting my new phone in the mail today! I'm expecting the FedEx truck to arrive anywhere from now until 3:00ish. Hopefully it'll come before my aerobics class. I don't want to have to miss it, and put the delivery off a day! (I have to be here to sign for the package.) Part of me just wants to skip class to get my phone. Hah.
Probably not the best of ideas.

After aerobics I will shower and give Kirk a call- maybe he'll want to help me move some stuff over to the new house.
My room is almost completely stripped. All I have is stuff in boxes waiting to be shipped away.
Cleaning my room makes me realize how much stuff I have and just makes me want to get rid of it.
I think i'm going to seriously start investing my time in selling my art and creations.
Not only do I need to finish Scotty's hat, but I need to be making money. And fast.
