Still Adrift

Speaking.

This was supposed to be posted last night (10/17) but it didn't post..so here ya go. ; )

I am feeling pretty good tonight. I spent most of my day working on 2 essays for my Geography class...there's a test tomorrow and these were take home essays for the test. The questions were kind of tough, but I am proud of myself, I feel I worked hard and really thought about the answers, I just hope the teacher doesn't think i'm trying to BS, cause for once, I'm actually not. ; ). I also think doing these essays helped me for the test too. I really want to do well on this one. I still need to study for Government, but I am not too worried about that one. I have an a in that class right now, so I have a little cushion there. : )

Today, I also went to the IRS and got some application forms...me working for the Government, who would have thunk it?? : Þ. It's not that I necessarily want to work there, but I figured I'd try. Though, they are not hiring until Dec. or Jan...I was hoping to get a job now, but we'll see what happens. I have testing on Nov. 3rd, which will take 4-5 hours. Not looking forward to that.

Yesterday I went to the orthodontist. Turns out I have TMJ, which I figured I did. I'm going to have to wear a splint to help w/the disc in my jaw. And until I get my splint, and probably for sometime after that, I am on a soft diet, which means no chewing. : (. Though, there is a good side to that..maybe I can lose some weight..heh heh. I have to wait to get the splint when my parents can come up the half the the splint cost, which is $300, so it might take a few weeks.

*yawns* I'm tired...
