this is what's up

lee is very happy right now. he is at a GT game with two friends. i'm really glad i'm not there (he knows this).
i stayed in bed until 1 today. maybe it was 12:45. although i did get up at 7 and make biscuits and fried some turkey bacon for lee before he went to work for a little bit. sleep is really great!!!
i made my first pound cake tonight. it's just a basic cream cheese pound cake - turned out pretty good.
the weather is starting to feel like fall, and it makes me really excited. it kind of reminds me of being in band in high school and being at football games (and never watching the game), and also of walking across campus at Winthrop - weird, it's not like I was only there in the fall. but this is what i'm reminded of.
i'm going to start teaching ESL in a few weeks. that will be a new adventure that i'm really looking forward to and scared about at the same time. it's really interesting how you teach it. i've never been more excited about any other ministry.
it's so nice to be at home for a weekend - i'm really a homebody and we've been traveling a lot lately.
we bought a grill today. merry early christmas, lee. i'm excited though, cuz this means he'll do some of the cooking now - yay!

INFP

I was just reminded that my personality type fits less than 1% of the world's population supposedly. So no wonder I feel so out of place and weird most of the time - I am!

According to this particular test I should be a teacher, writer, and psychotherapist or something. I am going to have my first private art student next tuesday. That is going to be really cool!

Lately I've been regretting my choice of college degree. I hate interior design - it's either too technical for my liking, wasteful, or retarded. Okay, maybe I don't hate it, but I really don't like it. You wanna know what color to paint your bedroom - whatever the heck color you like, people! Look through a magazine - find a bedroom with a paint color that you like and take it to benjamin moore and have them match it.

I'm kicking myself. I wish I had majored in painting and illustration - or maybe graphic design. Or at least English Lit or Religion - stuff I like. I probably would have hated the critical writing part, but it still would have been cool.

But, I didn't - I majored in what I majored in. There's nothing I can do now. I can't go back and change it.

I was introduced to the scrapbooking world over the weekend. I think I might have a new obsession. It's art using paper, junk, glue, photos, poetry, and memories!!!
