Studies Taking over my Life!

So a few weeks ago school started back for me,I homeschool but have a few classes away from home.Alot of my friends invite me to go places or simply go eat dinner with them,most of the time I can't,Of course nobody said High School was going to be easy but I do feel like it's taking all of "My Time" away from me.There's alot more work to be done to count for credits,a ton of tests,& it affects my homelife too, with not being able to spend alot of time with my family.But for the most part i'm making it work,so I can get an education & next year go to college...i'm actually looking forward to college! My grades are pretty high,in the 90% range so i'm proud of myself.Today I had a "meltdown" over Biology,it's very confusing to me & I don't enjoy it,hopefully I will catch on.I had a test & only got 13 out of 32 questions right so I'm a little disappointed at myself because I know I can do better.It's the lowest score i've gotten so far.But i'm not giving up i'll keep trying & start over fresh next week! Right now i'm just looking forward to this weekend,because i'll be spending it with family! STAY STRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xoxoxo :)

The changes in weather

Almost 5 months ago from today,Alabama got hit with a really bad storm "Aprils Fury" there was over 80 deaths & 27 tornadoes just in alabama,the storm went on into Georgia & etc.. more deaths happened through the other states & all together there was over 136 deaths.The storm never slowed down from Mississippi it became a deffinate tornado at the State line of Alabama & destroyed Tuscaloosa & left a path from T-Town until it finally died out in the North-Eastern states somewhere,the path of destruction it left was 1-2 miles wide in places.It was Heart Breaking,Shocking,Devestating,& everyone was speechless & shocked,Alabama has always been a safe place to live and now when we have a chance of rain everyone is terrified...including myself.Recently my parents & I drove to Tuscaloosa...My Dad & Aunts are from there & grew up there,My dad kept getting "turned around" he wasn't lost at all...there was nothing he recognised because everything is gone the house he grew up in was gone,signs,stores,the land marks he remembered,weren't there & he didn't know where he was at first.It's been a looooong 5 months of recovery but T'town IS up & the people are functioning by helping each other & being there for each other.Everyones lives have been destroyed by a massive storm but on the surface it didn't destroy the people!

On the bright side Alabama won the first Ball Game of the season! ROLL TIDE! Obviously the Bama team didn't let the 4/27/11 storms bring them down.

I think Alabama has had all of the severe Weather it can handle for 1 year,& this post isn't just for Tuscaloosa it's for the whole state! My Grandparents live in Birmingham & when it had turned for them I started to panic...How was I going to get there to them?? Thank God it missed them by 3 miles.I hope the survivors can get back to their lives soon & for the lost loved ones,I hope they rest in peace. :)

Lets keep our fingers crossed through Hurricane season & keep Re-Building & Getting Stronger through the mess of (Aprils Fury)! SWEET HOME ALABAMA!!!! ;)

Life's A Climb

Summer is coming to an end for me,time to start studying again.In a way i'm kinda happy,i'm ready for a change even though i'm going to stay busy with working part time & being a full time student.But the past few months during Summer break have been tough,alot has happened & alot of good things have happened also.My title (Life's A Climb) is true..or it is for me,because i've had ups & downs just like a mountain when I get half way up,I seem to fall back down to the bottom.But between my Family Friend being in & out of the hospital & the other chaos in my life,i've managed to get this far & i'm not looking back,it's best to just keep moving on! From my childhood to now,i've been through alot emotionally but I wouldn't go back at all,& even though it's still tough being a young adult I will never complain about where I am today.I keep in mind the most important thing in life to me....FAMILY! & I remember what they've done for me in the past,so whenever I feel like i'm in a emotional wreck again I go to them,I will never go back to my childhood! I'm just going to keep CLIMBING!!!

Life is precious!

Being a teenager is fun for alot of kids because all they do or want to do is party,& it usually comes back to them twice as bad & they wind up hurt or injured for the rest of their lifes.But for me it's totally different,I had to grow up quick & I never wanted to go party because i've seen the results to that life style.I am more focused on college & my future,I want what I can get out of life & live my life to the fullest,I don't want my life shortened by drugs or alcohol.I have been paying attention to how precious life really is, I want to be a roll model to young adults & teens because some kids just don't have anyone to talk to or parents to show them & tell them whats right & wrong,thats why there are so many teen deaths due to drugs & alcohol.I want to have a family one day & raise my kids the way I was raised & be a good parent so they know i'm there for them,I don't want to be in rehab or jail trying to raise a family.So just think before you make a wrong decision,& do what your heart says to do not what others are doing or pressuring you to do,& get help if you are forced to do the wrong thing....such as illegal drugs or drinking. LIFE IS TO PRECIOUS TO DIE YOUNG!   In memory of Joe jr.!

Always here for my loved ones!

My Uncle has been complaining of intense headaches for almost a week,he has taken stuff to help it from home like....Advil,Motrin,Tylenol,& even My Midol.He says it's getting worse,I told him to go to the E.R.Then a close family friend is having open heart surgery,his heart is going to be taken out,stopped,& fixed.But he could die from this,I already have another family friend in an assisted living because he fell down 25 concrete steps & broke almost everything & almost lost his life,but thank goodness 2 months in the hospital has gotten him this far.& keping a close check on my grandparents! they are doing good but they have done alot for me & i'm super close to them,so at their age they do need a little help every now & then.I'm so exhausted...mentaly & physically  from my family being sick,hurt,or in the hospital. but i'm here for them & they know it,& they would be here for me.I only treat others the way I want to be treated! Sometimes I think why does the bad stuff always happen to innocent people,but it's not just me & my family it's everyone,it's just exhausting running here & there,but i'm glad to do it because these are people I love & care about! So if your in a situation like me one day,don't give up stay strong & let them know your there with them,it comforts the person by letting them know they're not alone,& also shiws you care! The best thing to do is STAY STRONG for them!

4th Of JULY!!!

This weekend is 4th of July! I'm going to our lake house to watch a huge firework show over the water,it's beautiful & lots of fun! I hope everyone else has a SAFE & FUN 4th also! :)    Remember to use cautions and safety around fireworks,you can use coolers to put them in once they've been shot off to help prevent burns & fires.FIREWORKS ARE NOT TOYS!!!!

Life is tough but i'm tougher

This is my new saying! (Life is tough but i'm tougher!) because it's true & i've been trying hard not to let the little things bother me or take my frustrations out on the people that I love.So when your mad,try walking away to cool off then come back to discuss whats wrong or what happened with that person.When your angry,take a walk or read a book,even try listening to music.When your sad or down about something,talk to someone you can trust or write it down.Other things you can try,to help your mood or emotions or whatever it is bothering you,out but by letting that person know how you feel without causing a fight or a good friendship or even a relationship to fall apart.Focus on your breathing,take a warm shower,paint your nails (for the ladies!)that helps me,just by being alone for a few minutes.Coloring, sitting outside by yourself,holding a rock or a bead in your hand just playing with it,can help calm you down because your focused on the object in your hand.Think about things before you say it or do it,there are other ways to let a person know how you feel without yelling or throwing things & possibly getting physically hurt.I know people can say things that might throw you over the edge & you just want to slap them,but cool off first then discuss the issue.Remember (LIFE IS TOUGH BUT BE TOUGHER!) It took alot for me to learn these things before it finally sunk in one day,I CAN talk to someone without yelling or causing a friendship to fall apart for some stupid reason.DON'T let this happen to you,I hope these things can help you too! :)

The road to my future.

As i'm planning my future,i'm realizing there's gonna be bumps in the road,financially,& emotionally,nobody ever said life was easy or is going to be easy.I will face those times when they get here,but for now I have to focus on the future because I can't go back and redo the past.I have been trying hard to do whats best for me,because I was trying to please everyone else by make them happy & putting them first,I let myself get forgotten & I realized that I wasn't happy or making myself happy.So i've started doing what I want to do for me,but NO I haven't forgotten my loved ones! My goal is to finish college & go into the Medical Field....Ultra Sound Technician,or a Neonatal nurse.Then start my career & continue on with my life.But some of my family isn't supportive,some of them are jealous because they didn't continue with high school or quit & didn't even go through college,because they had babies really young & had to work.I want to be the one who does right & not look back & regret not doing those things,not saying that having a baby is a mistake,but I want to wait until i'm financially stable before I have kids.I've learned from my family & friends who have had kids young & it's really hard at times.I wish I could go back at times & re think some decisions that i've made but I can't so i'll keep moving forward. I'm focusing on my future & ready for whatever life throws at me.

T.G.I.F

I'm just now starting to blog,I hope my blog is interesting to you.I know it's going to help me out alot,because words can be hurtful,once you say something it's said & you can't take it back.But blogging is a way to let it out & kinda keep it to yourself at the same time.
