While talking to a "5-year senior" I came up with a title for myself. People keep asking me if I'm in graduate school and of course I say no and smile at their confused look. While I do have an associates, in my program I'm technically a freshman and then didn't go to school right out high school... Anyway to simply things I now introduce myself as
"an 8th year freshman"
Yesterday I was talking to the Lord in the car (seems to be a profound place right now) and kind of shocked that I'm getting comfy in my little place here. Why am I not more disappointed my job might limit the overseas trips I want to take in summers? I was telling Him how I wanted to see more opportunities in my life here in this town. A few minutes later I got a call on my cell asking if I'd help at the nursing home. But...but...Lord...its the PREMIERE of the OFFICE!!! AHHHH I've only had a tv a short time after years without and I'm fussing about a stupid show?!? I did go to the nursing home and was glad I did. And the extra blessing at the end...the premiere stunk.

[in re: to the FD] You know what they say..."next week na lang...next week" ginhawa.
eight year freshman...i got you beat. after enrolling in a new school the other day, completly having to start over, i relized it it now eleven years since i took my first college class. that however does not stop people from asking me what grade im in or if i am indeed old enough to work (happened twice in the past 24 hours). too bad we dont go to the same school, we could start a serority or something.
...im signing this anonymous due to my sudden embarresment at my 11 year run in two year colleges. can you guess who it is.
Well...actually we may be in the same boat. I took a few college classes while in high school (of course Dad was chaperoning), so I could technically call myself an 11 year freshman.
You'll have to email me your identity, cuz actually I have quite a few people in my life who could share this title. =))
[now knowing anonymous identity] Your secret is safe with me...as long as my paper towel confession stays on the DL.
