| This entry (longcoming as it was) is dedicated soley to all of those who contributed a piece of the puzzle that is my education. Here's to you the late night graders, the paper readers and revisers, the keepers of the red pens, the mentors and the guides, the yield signs when I go to fast, the stop signs when I hit the wrong path, the founts of knowledge and the story tellers, the people I admire and hope one day to be like, my teachers and my friends, here's to you again.
Why God Made Teachers
By Kevin William Huff
When God created teachers,
He gave us special friends
To help us understand His world
And truly comprehend
The beauty and the wonder
Of everything we see,
And become a better person
With each discovery.
When God created teachers,
He gave us special guides
To show us ways in which to grow
So we can all decide
How to live and how to do
What's right instead of wrong,
To lead us so that we can lead
And learn how to be strong.
Why God created teachers,
In His wisdom and His grace,
Was to help us learn to make our world
A better, wiser place. | | |

Just Might (Make Me Believe) Lyrics
by SugarlandI got miles of trouble spreadin' far and wide
Bills on the table gettin' higher and higher
They just keep on comin', theres no end in sight
I'm just holding on tight...
I've got someone who loves me more then words can say
And I'm thankful for that each and every day
And if I count all my blessings, I get a smile on my face
Still hard to find faith..
But if you look in my eyes
And tell me I'll be alright
If you promise never to leave You just might make me believe
Its just day to day tryin' to make ends meet
What id give for an address on easy street
I need a deep margarita to help me unwind
Leave my troubles behind... But if you look in my eyes
And tell me I'll be alright
If you promise never to leave You just might make me believe
I used to believe in us
When times got tough
Lately I'm afraid that even faith is not enough
But if you can look in my eyes
And tell me I'll be alright
If you promise never to leave you just might make
Oh, you just might make me
You just might make me believe

Life is all about asses
you're either covering it,
laughing it off,
kicking it,
kissing it,
busting it,
trying to get a piece of it,
or behaving like one ...
Thank you Erin Oxford!

| Well it has happened. My best and worst fears have come true. I just got a call from the University of South Alabama. Because of Dco's call and him reminding them that they accepted his one Anatomy class before they will accept the waiver. I am indebted to him. The one thing I wanted to avoid more then anything in th world. And just a side note for those reading this and the before message I am not trying to be rude when saying this, but please dont tell me that its ok and its not a big deal just ignore him. I understand that, I understand that all people need help when doing somethings and that life is a game to be played its who yo know not what you have. I understand all this I dont need people telling me that everytime I turn around. If you knew how I was feeling and what I was thinking you what know a little about how important this was to me. It may be crazy to everyone else out there, but it is how I feel please dont judge me for that. The only person I have found that understands my reasons are my sister, she knows and understands, thank goodness. | | |
| This has been a frustrating week for me. Monday I got a call from the University of South Alabama. I was told that they could not except my petition to waive the 2 semester anatomy requirement. Ok so that was disappointing thing number one. I suppose something that should be considered a good thing happened today. Dr. Alleee called down to USA and talked them into re-evaluating my application. I know I should be extremely grateful to him for doing that, and I am thankful for the fact that I am getting a re-evaluation. I am torn up inside thought. I just wanted to be able to do this application thing without having to depend on him to make a call, in fact I didnt even want him to know anything about my application. Of course he also repremanded me for some of my recent behaviors and attidues. I will admit that I was somewhat snippy with him when I went to get my wstupid little packet things. I even apologized for that, which was a really big thing for me to admit to him I made a mistake and I really do recognize that i was not on my best behavior when that incident happened. Anyway he continues to talk to me about some bullcrap not to be mentioned and I sat there and swallowed all of it. Anyway this all lead s to the point that I am grateful for the calls made but I wish with all my heart that it had never happened. I wanted so desperately to be able to stand up and say to myself that my graduate school application and acceptence was something that I HAD ACCOMPLISHED BY MYSELF. I just wanted there to be one thing in my life that I could say I did that, me. I have never done anything in my life or accomplished anything that someone else can't take credit for, I have ALWAYS had someone behind me pushing me through or dropping a name in someone's ear. I know it is silly i suppose but I wanted to be wanted by a graduate school because of what I had accomplished, the grades I made, the test scores I have gotten, all the work and effort I have put in. The last thing I ever wanted to happen was that someone ESPECIALLY Dr. Allee would have to make a call on my behave. I am torn up because know I will NEVER EVER know if I get accepted by USA if they wanted me b/c of me and my skills and before mentioned reasons, or if it was only b/c someone made a call. To make matters worse for my heart now if I get accpeted Doc can say "I did that, I got her in." The thought makes me sick to my stomach. My mom doesnt really understand how I am feeling, I mean she does but she doesnt understand why having this feel of pride in the fact that I did something by myself is so important to me. I can't make her understand that it JUST IS. I want IT FOR MYSELF. I want to be able to have this one thing in my life. I dont want to deny credit where credit is due. I am thankful for Joseph McCauley as my advisor who has helped guide me though my college career, i am thankful for all those who have helped my study and prepare for tests and classes, I am thankful for the people who took time to write reference letters for me, I understand that all of that is stuuf I had help with and owe credit to. I dont know. I guess I am just to ideaolistic, I believe in noble presuits and standing on your own two feet. That is really all I am wanting. I want to stand on my own and know that I am good enough. I want to know that I AM GOOD ENOUGH that I AM A NUMBER ONE CHOICE on my own by myself NO ASSISTENCE NEEDED. I WANT TO BE GOOD ENOUGH ON MY OWN. | | |
