It's been a rough last couple of weeks with my grandma dying, my mom not coming to visit, and well, just Nick. I don't think I've cried as much in my life as I have in the last two weeks. Seems like everything sets me off.
The week that my grandma died I had an essay due. I finished it and man was it good! So why, why did my teacher give me a C on it? I cried for hours. I've never gotten anything lower then a B+ on an essay. Why now? I emailed her asking her what the deal was...actually I was pretty brutal in my email.
Basically I told her that I was in shock that she would give the illiterate students in my class good feedback on their public discussion, but wouldn't say anything on mine. I called her out on it, yet this was her response:
"I agree that what you wrote in your paper can be described as clear, in that a reader would not be confused when reading your work. Your paper shows that you are competent in clearly expressing your view. Unfortunately, I cannot change your grade as it wouldn't be fair to the other students."
I think my next essay will be written by Pieter. I mean obviously I need to keep up with this woman:
"Well my passion is shopping for shoes, stiletto, flats, flip flops, in fact all type of shoes. My love for shoes is so great that I have two closets full of shoes. I have tough of opening my own shoes business, but specialize in comfort. Many shoes may cause discomfort, back problem, deformities of the feet, and nee problem. There are some company that make comfortable shoe, but not very appealing. I would like to offer comfort with some elegance, for the general public as well at to diabetics, and other’s with foot problem that would benefit from my product."
Seriously, just reading that makes me want to cry.
ANYWAY, I've come up with a solution to keep my car safe. I've had a few people tell me it probably wasn't a safe idea to sleep in my car. Something about men being stronger then I am...blah, blah, blah. I'm pretty sure that if I was trying to steal rims and someone popped up in the window with an AR in their hands, I'd be peeing down my leg. I don't think my first reaction would be to open the door and grab the person. Fuck that, I'd be ruuuuuuning. So my other solution? I bought a video camera. A really cool one that will sit in my neighbors window. If anything weird happens an alert will be sent to my phone and to my email. I'm excited to get it in the mail. In the meantime, I am getting up at random times in the night to check on my car.
I feel like I've been insanely busy this week, but I haven't accomplished anything. Okay, I did make a cake...but man I need to really do my homework! It's tough doing online school, especially when I'm taking care of someone else's child all day. Pieter is calm when it's just him and I, but when Joey gets here it's pretty much a throw down all day. It gets even worse when his friend Gavin comes with him.
Oh yah, I also need to get Kristen and Sean's wedding photos sent out! Here are a few of MY favorite photos from their day.
