Hey guys so I just found out that my CIS 101 class, that I take every Wednesday morning I don't have to go to for the rest of the semester now. I just took my PowerPoint test on the computer and scored high enough that I no longer have to go. And get this, my teacher is going to plug in 100% for all of the homework assignments that I would normally have to be going to take. So ya ya for me! Now I get to sleep in a little more on Wednesday's, and I can go ride my horse before my 2 o'clock EQS class.
But besides that, college is going great. I have a paper due for English class tomorrow that I'm just about done, and I only have two more objectives in my math class to complete. And I'm aiming to get those done before Thanksgiving so I will be down to just taking three classes to end out this semester. So technically now I'm down to just taking four college classes. I went from six to four in what, one month? Two months? Not bad.
Work has been great too, I worked yesterday 10-4 and the rest of this week I only work Friday 12-6 and Saturday 10-4 again, so about 16.30 hours of work. I'm hoping next week I can get in a total of four days to help bring in the money because I'm starting to save up for a car.
What kind do you guys think I should get? I'm thinking somewhere under the Dodge brand, but drop your comments below and give me some ideas. I'm open for anything.

So college keeps me busy. I'm still taking 5 classes, but they are all seemingly pretty easy so far. Nothing too hard has popped up and I hope it really stays that way. The only class I'm honestly worried about is my Introduction to Computer Concepts or CIS 101-05, as the schools calls it. I can do everything perfectly here on the computers at school, and then when I go home, well nothing seems to work. I don't know what it is...maybe my computer is bi-polar with my work. But my grade is still good, mid 80's, so no worries yet.
My equine classes are so much fun! I have learned so much over the past few days that I didn't realize I needed to know, even though I've been working with horses all of my life. It's incredible how accepting my professor is and open to trying something new from everyone of the others students, as well as me, every time our classes come up. We've already gone on one field trip, and she is already planning where the next one is going to be! And get this...each field trip counts for both of my classes, so I don't even have to go to one of them the week we have the trips!!
I have also asked to pick up extra work hours/days at my weekend job, so now I work 4 days a week and have classes the other 3 days. It works out great being able to work during the week gives my ADHD self something to focus on so I'm not too insane. But it also helps with if I want to take the weekends off to go visit Temple University, where my boyfriend is going to college, or do horse shows, or just take a break and have a study/homework day. It's great! I have gotten so many wonderful comments about my "sales personality" but really I'm just being dead honest with our customers. I think honesty goes a whole lot farther then if you try to fake it and they find out. (Not a good place to be then).
So I came up to the library to work on some math before I go for my Basic Horse Handling class at 2, and I haven't actually done any other that yet ha ha. Just been here, so I better actually go!
I am trying to get back into writing more on here for the rest of the semester, so keep an eye out! Oh! And on Halloween there will be a surprise, so look out!

So I've been away for a little while. But I'll always come back. I mean I don't have anywhere exciting to go to any time soon... Oh wait that may have been a lie.
So classes have been good, not getting easier, but also not getting harder. And thank god for that one. I swear if they had gotten any harder within this past week... *shudders* I don't know what I would do. But then again.. what could I do? I don't give up that easy.
Plus, I sadly had to drop my second job *cries to self* but at least now I'll be able to get my college work done, take care of my horse, survive my weekend job without feeling like a zombie, and still sleep. Which was probably the one thing that I was having troubles with. SLEEPING of all things was getting hard for me to do and find time for. I mean who doesn't sleep? Well besides vampires and the creatures that tend to go bump in the night, but aren't humans supposed to sleep at least 7-8hrs a night?? That's what I've grown up being told, but I seem to need less and less sleep now a days. *gasps* Wait! What if I'm turning into a vampire?! He He the things I could do...

Finally on my last class of the day, Yay! But who knows this could be one of the hardest months of my life so far. Anyone have any ideas about how I could get through this? It's 7:40pm and I'm not even done class till like around 9:30pm and then wont get home till around 10ish. And then guess what? Yup more homework. Gotta take an online pre-test for my computer class and if I get an 80% or higher I don't have to go to that class till the next pre-test is ready. That's AMAZING! But I also have some English work that I need to get done as well hat I didn't know about before today. *sad face*
One class done for the day, two more to go and I still have to pick up new books for my night class tonight. Who knows when I'll get home and who knows when I'll get all of my work done tonight either. I don't get it, why is my life so hard? But hey the harder I am on myself now, hopefully the easier it will be later on in life when I'm living on my own.

Damn this library is cold... but at least being down in the children's area I'm not bothered by anyone at the moment. Gives me the ability to breathe and let go of everything. Honestly, I hate it here. I worked all four years of my high school career and loved being in the library, but I'm just not making the same connections as I did over there. I think being away from it for so long is what had changed me.. Oh well!
So guys how are we doing tonight? What are your plans? Gotta be better than mine, right? Hit the comment button or the +1 button to let me know that I'm not just talking to myself. Don't be shy, I promise I wont bite ya.
My nights are boring, being alone all the time. But hey I got two more hours to go and then I can go home and run. Yes, in the dark... its not scary, I love being in the dark! Maybe I'm inhuman... He he wanna find out? No? Okay, I can do rejection.
Have an amazing night everyone, cause I know my only amazing part will be the running in the dark! :P

Well let's just say one week down, and I'm not even two days into week two! My brain isn't working anyone, my physical body is fine. I'm everywhere that I should be physically, but now mentally... oh let me tell you... mentally is another story in general. Mentally I'm no where near sound.
So here I am, on a day where I don't have any college classes and should be relaxing right? HA! You're wrong Haley... here you are sitting at home on your day off working on 8hrs of math homework, and trying to type an essay on The Social Horse. (OK the essay wont be too hard because I love horses) But still, not how I planned on spending my day off here.
Oh and to make matters worse I have to go to work 4-8 and Close at the Library tonight. But I think I might be dropping that job. 6 college classes, 3 jobs and a horse (but I'm keeping the horse!) is way to much for my poor brain. I'm not sleeping at night, not functioning during the day with being tired and all, but then when I go to sleep at night I can't because my poor brain wont shut off.
