I'm..Almost..There!

There are only 6 days left until school is out! I am almost done with my first year of college! We get out Wednesday and I'm heading to Victorville to visit the Canchola's. Then I head up to Laguna Hills to visit the Hogg family and spend a couple days with them. Dad and some guys from our church are going to the Master's Men Conference in Fresno, CA on Friday and Saturday and I will be meeting them after that is all done. Then we head home! I am soooo excited to see my family! I have ONE more final to study for... Orientation to Teaching. So I will catch up with you all later. =)

Almost there!

Hey everyone! Only 12 more days until school is out! It has been crazy! I am really excited about coming home and seeing the family. Joey lost his two front top teeth and my mom sent me a couple pictures. He is soo cute! And all the kids are definitely growing up! I can't wait to get home. Things are wrapping up here and I will be back in a jiffy! Well, I will write more later... a friend went out and bought some Panda Express and I am hungry! Later! I have some teacher jokes that I will post later. Love you all.

Counting Down! 22 Days Left!

Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't blogged in a while. Things have been pretty crazy around here. It seems like everything has been going on!
You know how when you drop a marble or a penny on the side of a large funnel (come on, you all know what I mean and you have done it too! You see them in museums and zoos sometimes) how the closer to the bottom the penny gets, the faster it goes? It started out nice and slow and slowly went faster and faster until it is spinning like crazy at the bottom. Then it plops into whatever is underneath.
I'm feeling that the school year is like that. With only...wait, let me double check!...22 days left of school, things are starting to spin faster and faster! This happened last semester too, though. I'm thinking part of it is because I put things off and wait until the last minute! Bad Kaitie! =(
Anyway, things are going okay with the jobs. Actually the Census job is literally "going"... we are pretty much done with our job and I'm thinking that I will be officially done by the end of this week or maybe part of next, not completely sure yet.
Well, gotta run now. School awaits! Oh, joy..... =)

Back to the Crazy Life

Hey everyone! My spring vacation officially ends tomorrow, however, I am not heading back to school. I have been hired by the Census Bureau and am doing full day trainings for this new job that will start next week. Training started Friday and will end on Thursday, so I am taking class cuts for the next three days of school. Class cuts, for those who are unsure, are pretty much permission slips for missing school! lol This week is also the week of the Church Planters Conference here and so I am sad to miss that, as I hear it is very good, but it works out for me because classes are shorter. Thus, I will miss less! =) Things are going well here. I went to Chinatown on Wednesday with a couple of friends and that was a lot of fun. I went down to a family friend's home on Friday for the weekend. I had a great time with the Canchola family. (Thank you Tom and Susan for hosting me and my friend Rebecca!) Well, gotta run for now. I am going with a friend to pick up her roommates from the airport tonight and, as usual, I have stuff I need to get done first! Chow!

Spring Vacation!

It's here.... Spring Vacation starts Monday after chapel and I am excited! I am spending the week here on campus and then the weekend with a family friend. Things are going okay here. I am dropping one of my cases for California Psych Care and picking up a job with the Census Bureau. I am planning on getting a lot of school work done during the break so that when I start working both jobs, I won't be as stressed with school.
The weather out here is gorgeous! I had the AC running and my car windows down yesterday when I was on my way to work. I was texting Mom and she said that it was 1 degree in Utah that morning! The temp had risen to about 35 degrees when she was talking to me that afternoon. Crazy! I gotta say that I am liking this California weather! lol
We are having an Andy Griffith night tonight at 7 so I gotta go get dinner eaten while I can. Later!

Four Day Weekend!!!!

Hey there! Time has been flying these last couple of weeks! Tomorrow begins the Fine Arts Competitions hosted by West Coast. The cool thing about that is that instead of classes, we just have to attend the chapels (I think) and help out in assigned areas for assigned times. For me, I help out Thursday 6:30pm-9 pm and Friday 9:30am-12pm. Not bad. This is going to be a nice break. Even though it is not completely off, I'm still thinking that this counts as a long weekend! Hallelujah! One more week of school after that (midterms week) and then we have spring vacation! I'm staying here for the actual week in order to work, rest, and work ahead on school stuff. However, I am going to the home of a friend of mine in Victorville for the weekend, possibly with friend of mine from school. I'm looking forward to that! It will be a nice break and a chance to get off campus for a few days. Things are going pretty well here. Work was a little crazy and stressful for about 1 1/2 to 2 weeks, but I believe the majority of that issue is behind me. =) I cannot believe I have been back at school for 6 weeks already. This semester seems to be going by a lot faster than last semester. I go home in 10-11 weeks. Not quite half way there, but close. Well, I must fly. I have some stuff to get done before I head to work. Love you all. Later

Happy Valentine's Day!

Hello everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend serving the Lord! We had 13 kids show up for our parks program today and another team had one accept Christ! This is what the ministry is all about. Sincerely seeking Christ and then winning others to him. A friend and I were able to talk to a man named Mike today outside of the Dollar Tree. We went through the plan of salvation with him. Not sure if he is saved or not, but he said that he might come to the church sometime, so we will see. We did our part and now it is time for the Holy Spirit to do what He does best! lol Well, it's time for me to go work on that big pile of stuff that has been staring at me everytime I walk into my room! I love you all and hope you all have a wonderful Valentine's Day. I think that on this day that loving each other as brothers and sisters in Christ is just as important as love between a man and a woman. If the members of Christ's church are not in one accord concerning their love for one another, Christ, and the millions of lost souls around us, we are worthless to the cause of Christ. Something to think about today. Good night!
