Cinco de Mayo, a birthday, and school update
Tomorrow is Cindo de Mayo and also Cootie’s birthday. He’ll be eight years old! I can’t believe he’s my old man baby. We are having my dad and his girlfriend over to celebrate by eating Carne Asada (Cootie’s favorite food which he only gets on his birthday) and drinking margaritas.
So hard to believe another year has passed. I find myself saying this every year, well every month actually. Time goes by so quickly. As as kid, adults would tell me how when you get older, time will go by faster and faster and I never believed them, because I thought it already was going by fast enough. But it was the truth. Every year I look back and say, “Where in the heck did the last 12 months go?” It’s really unbelievable.
I started my core accounting classes today! : ) I’m excited. I also have a Research Writing class which at first I was dreading, but it’s basically just an expanded version of the Critical Thinking class I just took, which I aced (I had a 99.2% last time I checked. That’s without the final project being graded though) and was actually fairly easy for me. In this Research Writing class though I get to pick a topic, and write a paper about it. I think I’m going to pick to write about how it is possible to be a feminist and a Christian at the same time. Waiting for approval from the professor on that topic.
That’s it for now. My new job that I started two months ago is going really well! I love it. So glad I decided to take the opportunity while I had it.
I”m going to try to attach a picture of my baby Cootie that I just took, the day before his birthday. He was napping.
