Today is my 21st birthday!!
I am an executive board member for the Illinois Education Association Student Program.
I am going o a casino tonight.
It’s going to be a great day!!!! :)
So I have to give a speech in front of 300 people today.
Needless to say, I am freaking out.
I do not want to go back to Western.
I want to stay in Burlington for forever. Everything works here. Everything makes sense here.
Too bad reality bites.

Lets talk about how my ex boyfriend is moving 40 minutes away from me as we speak.
Lets talk about how amazing that is. And how great it is to have my best friend back, even if we aren’t dating.
Lets talk about how I’m headed there tonight. For an entire day.
Lets talk. Lets talk. Lets talk.

I am literally speechless at how amazing that movie was.
It was everything I could have ever hoped for in a movie based on that book. Just, wow.
The rest of my night? Absolutely awful. I feel like I’m living a dream right now, like this can’t actually be happening. I never ever thought I would see the day that this would all be happening. I would give anything, literally anything,...
Off to the library for a day of homework! Then hopefully some brunch in the Thompson cafeteria. It’s been far too long since I’ve been there! hah
I can’t wait for tonight. Friends, hookah, relaxing. Yes please
Well deserved day!

Please and thank you! :)

Artist and albums?

My favorite thing about my roommate being gone is being able to freely be naked when I want to.
Is that really too much to ask?
Too much information? Probably.

This is beautiful.
The most uncomfortable situation I have encountered is being so ridiculously close to someone who is roommates and best friends with your ex boyfriend.
A teacher in New York was teaching her class about...
I did this activity for a SEL learning experience once.
Some of the best teaching advice I ever got.
aussieteacher:
Your students will never remember exactly what it was you taught them, even if they do retain the skill/ability. They won’t remember they learned how to use addition in that great lesson, or that it was you who taught them to spell ‘because’. What they will remember, however, is exactly how you made themfeel.
I try to teach with this in mind. :)
Love this.
So I drink a half a pot of coffee at 10 so I can stay up and do my homework….
….and I end up staying up all night and talking to my ex boyfriend.
Wait, what?

I hate being home, even for a few days, because I cannot stand my parents fighting.
My dad and I can’t even have a civil conversation, and he manages to piss me off constantly for the stupid, rude, and bitchy things he says.
I don’t know how I’m going to survive another summer here. It’s not GOOD for me to be here.

trailer for the upcoming documentary “Bully”, which will release on March 30th.
I need to see this. I cried just watching the trailer.
Worst feeling in the world is knowing you are failing tests, not getting projects done, and feeling like a complete failure; yet not even have the ability to get yourself to care or to motivate yourself anymore.
I have been in such a funk since Ben and I broke up, and even before then when things started to suck. I am in such a weird point in my life, and it happened to come to a point during...
Reblog this if you are literally suprised when...
I did SO well without him yesterday. I was genuinely happy for the first time. I smiled, I danced, I hung out with my friends. I had the best day I’ve had in a while.
……
Until I came home, and was completely alone.
I am still not even remotely okay with being alone. I feel like a failure. I need to somehow make myself see that I’m not a horrible person for being...
Forever alone.
