A break would be nice.

I am so burnt out. burnt out on everything. school. work. more work.

This last weekend was fall break. guess who did not get to enjoy fall break.. oh yeah me. why? because I worked ALL weekend. Oh and I had a microbiology test @ 8am the morning after what was supposed to be fall break.

And Thanksgiving is coming... about a month away. Oh wait.. guess who won't get to enjoy that break either... me again... because I work retail.

I'm 20. I'm supposed to be enjoying life. right? That's what I've been told. But it's so hard to do when I'm ALWAYS busy. I want to visit family, hang out with friends, enjoy my years in college. I feel like I work soooo much. I want to be less stressed out. I want to be able to get a good nights sleep. I work hard because I want a good job, I want a good life... but I want to enjoy growing up.

I wish I could just quit. But I also don't know if I know how to do that. I have bills and goals which make it hard to make an irrational decision like just quitting my job because I'm tired of being busy. But maybe I should try it and see where I'm taken.

I realize I'm having a minor pity party for myself right now. However, I needed to express these thoughts to someone... whoever may read this I suppose. I know that God has a plan for me.. and I know it's going to be WAY more awesome than the plan I may have for myself. But for now I'm just here figuring it out.

If you have any advice please do share.

kitty

This past saturday I adopted a kitten. She was free and came with pretty much everything. Someone found her and couldn't keep her, but bought everything she needed. My sister hooked me up and now kitty gets to hang out with me everyday. She is about 8 weeks old. And is veryyy active. I love her to pieces, she is so cute. But she's quite the biter. She loooves to play. She bounces spastically from one place to another and runs like a rocket. It's quite entertaining... And she plays in her litter box before she does her business. It looks like she's chasing an invisible bug haha. When she isn't playing she loves to snuggle. She sleeps with me at night. She has gone exploring around the house and finds the tiniest spaces to get into. But whenever I leave the house I always come back to find her nestled in the middle of my bed. It is the cutest thing!

This is my new kitty.

I haven't settled on a name yet. I'm considering Cleo. So if you have any ideas let me know!
