My Crazy Day!!!

Well, it's now 11:17 and I just finished studying for my first problem solving math test, but I am super excited my sissy (Lindsay Allen Branch) has set me up a blog where I can update everyone on my busy life while I'm away at school in Starkville. (GO BULLDOGS!!!)So, can I just begin telling everyone how CRAZY my day was today!!! I woke up as normal and got ready to go to the local elem. school here in Starkville for my one hr./one day a week involvement with a kindergarten class. Well, I arrived right on time(11:00). I walked in with a fellow classmate that actually helps in the same classroom. We sign in go through the whole visitor "junk" and we go to our classroom to find a pitch black room w/ no teacher and no students...? We were puzzled so my classmate asked me what do we do? So I said let's go back to the office and ask where they are... So we do and the secetary proceeds to tell us today is an early release day... We asked what's that? she said the students will leave today at 12:30. We were kind of frustrated that our teacher didn't think to tell us not to come and we had to drive all the way across town for nothing! Oh well, now we know what an early release day is and that they have one for the first Wed. of everyother month. The next one will be Nov. 5th so I know we won't forget!haha
Well, then the next crazy thing that happened was while I was at my apartment and I was watching CNN news I believe and it was 5:30 and I said oh my I better brush my teeth and leave for church services before I'm late. So I'm rushing to services and I finally make it with like 2 minutes to spare so it's 5:58 and I look in the parking lot and NOBODY was there!!! and I said to myself BECKY you are CRAZY... Services don't start at 6 on Wed. they start at 7!!! so luckily a friend that attends services with me lives like 5 seconds from the building and I called her up and told her what I did and asked if I could just stay at her apt. until services started so I didn't have to drive all the way back home and then all the way back to services! Wooh! I tell ya what today was just a CRAZY DAY!!!

I haven't been able to post from the beginning of the school year so I'll update you on some exciting things that have happened since the first of the school year. So, we had this paper due in my Literature class(which by the way is my hardest class I've had ever in my life! It's way over my head!) and I was stressing and stressing over it so much that when I came home for labor day weekend I didn't even enjoy the holiday because I was reading my book and focusing on the paper. I turn it in on Tues. not feeling very confident about it because our teacher is very strict and I knew he was going to grade hard and to top it off Lit is just not my thing.... So Thurs. rolls around and he tells us we can check our grades online and I say a lil' prayer before I check mine and I made an A... YES I said an A!!! I was super excited about my A! :-)

Also our preacher here at Northside has been doing a series of lessons out of Luke and as of right now we are in Luke 6. I have come to find out that I struggle with certain things in this chapter. Luke 6:27 "Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you." Not that I believe I have any enemies, or atleast I hope I don't, but I know at times I struggle to "love" someone who is hateful towards me. So, I need to work on this!!!


This weekend is Bulldog Bash so there will be a lot of activities going on including "mini" concerts. I've invited an old friend and her boyfriend down friday night to attend the music part of Bulldog Bash weekend! Then Sat. night at 6:00 we play Auburn... Wish us luck! Maybe we'll have our second win of the season!!!


Well, I guess I need to get in the bed to get my atleast 8 hrs. of rest!!! Wish me luck on my first math test!
