someday I know it will all turn out

Last night was way awesome. I was invited to dinner with some people in my ward. They are two really awesome, smart and funny girls. I enjoyed their company immensely. Though I will say I am slightly intimidated by them. I hope to go over again soon.

On a different note, I am constantly soo busy and I feel bad when I can't hang out with everyone that I want to. But school is hard, and work is well, demanding. I have been sick and my hours are slim so I know I am going to start hurting soon. I hate that. I want to buy a car, I just keep praying it will work out you know?

I am still sick and I hate it. I think its going away though. My right tonsil is swollen and has mucus all over it. It looks quite revolting.

I have been doing home work all morning and I told work I would be in an hour later so I could do home work and also so I could sleep a little more. I keep hoping that the more I sleep the sooner I will get better.

I have been doing more creative writing work. I have a lot in my repertoire now.

Here is one I turned in a few weeks ago.

Paths

This is the path I never wanted to take,

one I never expected to be on.

Yet I keep walking the dusty road,

over the rigid rocks and boulders,

through the sharp edged tumble weeds,

underneath the blistering summer sky.

She walks a path I would have chosen,

one that I am unable to be on.

The paved even ground underneath

carries her safely through.

While gigantic oaks shade her trail

she, smiling, carries on her way.

I envy her as she strolls along effortlessly

while I grab onto barren branches

desperately trying to brace myself before I fall.

As I look at my worn shoes and deep cuts,

my torn clothing and shaking hands,

I see the path I have tread...and how far I have come.

My teacher says that it is very prosy. I agree. i need to figure out how to fix that. It was an exercise in imagery. She says I should make it longer. Go in more depth. I just need to figure out what exactly I should do with it.

And now I am off to work.
