I didn't really start this week off too good. I left school early on Monday night, got to my car, literally in tears. Why? Because I don't talk to anyone at school. It's community college, the people you talk to are the people you already knew, and maybe their friends. I go to school at night, 90% of my classmates are older than me, idk, it sucks. I know I'm not at school to make friends, but at times it really does suck. I just feel so alone when I'm there. It's like the first day of school, everyday. I might just be acting stupid. Most likely. haha. :) ugh.
Anyway, my "interesting" news. I found out today my uncle died. He's my mom's older brother. We have a restraining order on him, he's not a good person. I'm more or less numb to the news. Doesn't really matter to me, I guess. My mom's pretty upset, I guess I can kind of understand... but, he hurt her. Unforgivable, if you ask me. It's just, for a lack of a better word, weird.
Well, I'm not depressed or anything, just getting that out there. :)
Off topic:
I'm thinking about making and selling crafts on Etsy. I'll make some stuff and post pictures sometime.
Until next time,

In need of an update...
I really should keep a regular blogging schedule, so much to update in one post!
Well, I was able to go to San Diego with my boyfriend's family for his graduation. The whole trip was really fun, especially getting to bring him home with us. :-)
I flew in with his mom and sister, we met up with his 2 aunts, cousin, and grandmother. I got to meet them last year when we went to Detroit for Thanksgiving. It was nice getting to see them all again. The night we got there I was able to go and visit my friend Chelsie and her family who live there. It was so good to see her! She has 2 BEAUTIFUL girls! (I suggest you check them out on her blog--- HERE!) I really wish they didn't live so far away. :(
The rest of the trip was spent eating lots of Mexican food. yum! ha. We went to family day and I was so happy to see him! But his graduation was def the best. I am so proud of him! (oh, and all of us got pins to wear, "Marine Girlfriend", "Marine Mom", etc. I thought they were cute, him, not so much. lol)
He was on leave for 10 days, then did recruiter's assistance for an additional 14 days. It was so good to have him home!
Well, he left this past Tuesday back to California for his training. I get to talk to him on the weekends and text him throughout the week. I'm going to be able to spend the weekend after spring break with him in Florida, so I'll see him soon. :)
Other than that, I started my spring semester. My grades should be good as long as I don't slack too much, lol. I'm going to work on getting my options narrowed down for college next year. I finally decided to major in Mathematics. I don't know about a minor, but I'm looking into getting my secondary education certification for math and physics. But, if I don't end up teaching, there's quite a few options for a Mathematics major.
Work is work. No complaints though. :-)
Dance is going great. Getting ready for spring competitions. I started Pointe 2 weeks ago. It's so hard! But I am determined to perform in June in my pointe shoes!
On the social aspect of life, I've spent most my time with my boyfriend while he was home. We hung out with Lindsay and our other friend, Jarrett most the time. I haven't really talked to Elsa since the first of the year. She's one of those people who are really only concerned about themselves. She would probably disagree, but it's what I think. Deal with it. I enjoyed hanging out with her, but it was only surface level. Which is fine. I just need to surround myself with people who have my best interest in mind, and I have theirs. I realize that's not an easy thing to do. But it's true, I'd rather have a few close, real friends than tons of people to "hang out" with. Like, seeing Chelsie in California, she is a great person, a wonderful mother and wife, and really, the best friend I've ever had. She's worth so much more than someone to walk around the mall with. If you know what I mean.
Well, I have to put a depressing part in here somewhere. During the holidays, my grandmother suffered a brain aneurysm and passed away later in the hospital. And a few days before Christmas I lost my great grandfather to complications from pneumonia. It still hasn't fully hit me yet. Death is something I'll never be able to wrap my head around, and I'm just going to have to accept that. On a better note, my grandmother was able to donate her liver and both kidneys, which saved the lives of 3 different people. RIP Sandra Orwan and Alfred Burg. I love you both.
And now, I put my faith in God and keep on this road of life.
Until next time,
Katrina
