The Storm Is OVER?!

Yeah, I'm having a super excellent day. I'm so happy. I haven't felt this good in a looong while. First things first, I went to my visit at Wilmington. I LOVED IT. I'm not even going to contemplate NKU anymore. I know I could get in there, and I really don't care. I've found where I think I should be. The communication arts department was pretty effin' amazing. Loved it. Campus is still rather small, a lot more walking than Chatfield, but that was to be expected. So! Yeah, I'm in junior in standing there, which was one of the things I was worried about. So all my BS classes are taken care of pretty much..and I'm on my way to my specialized classes. I'm taking my PE class at Chatfield this summer though, just to get that out of the way--self defense! With Mr. John Dvorachek. Hopefully he will teach me something I can use, and there's another plus--I get to shoot big guns!! CHHYEAH!!! =)
Secondly, I got to spend all day with Ryan. He didn't go to work today, he went with me to Wilmington. He didn't want to, I know he didn't, but he did. Which shows me that he really really loves me. He didn't have much to say other than it was my decision, and only I can make it. Which is true, but his silent support was all I needed. When I said yes, this is the place, he said "I knew it. I knew it from the get go." So! That was cool. I've loved having him around all day. We rarely get days to just hang and let loose. It's just what we've needed for a while. I've been asking myself, why in the world is he with me? Like he isn't into anything I am. He doesn't like respond to any of my "projects" "hobbies" or "interests" really. Like my writing or photography or drawing or anything. So I felt today was a good day to ask him about that. He started immediately getting defensive "yes i do" "i love your art" "i always enjoy your stuff" "i love looking at your pictures" So I said you've never read any of my writing. He said, I've read all of your stuff, and looked at all of your pictures, you just don't know it. He said anytime any time I find something on our computer, or on your myspace I jump at the chance to read it, and I like to look at your picutures and your drawings, I'm probably your biggest fan. You just don't know it. Can we say OMG!!!! That made my day. Wilmington aside. To know that my husband, even though he doesn't say it out loud, or praise me constantly about what I do, actually enjoys what I do, and "jumps at the chance to read and/or see it" Wow. I was so happy. It made me feel so loved. For a minute there I was wondering why he wasn't part of that side of me, but I guess I just never took the time to see if he truly was or wasn't. And I def. didn't ask him what he thought about it, or if he was my fan. But, he's always there for me, and I was just feeling a bit insecure. He totally cured me of it though. I love that kid with all my heart. There's no one in the world I'd rather have my heart than him.
Thirdly, When I got home I got a letter in the mail. Wanna know what it said?? That I was accepted into the Phi Theta Kappa honor society. Which is NATIONALLY recognized for those of you who didn't know. So, that also made my day. Another good thing about today, at Wilmington I AUTOMATICALLY get 10k from them, for having such a good GPA. OMG!!!! 10K!! That brings my tuition down to practically what Chatfield's is. So all my hard work, or not hard work, but all my work is finally paying off!! Yay me!
Another thing is that I got to see my Dara Jo today. We came to the shop. She made money, and Ryan got his rat fink worked on. Or should I say, she is making me money, and he is getting worked on as I type. But, he's been wanting to get some work for a while. But, Ryan brought up my new hobby of drawing, and she said...."why don't you learn to tattoo and come work with me here at the shop" and I said...."teach me. teach me to tattoo. apprentice me." At this point, I TOTALLY thought it was a joke. She said "i will! but let me talk to Billy (the owner) first. But, keep drawing!" And I said "I will. can I have some of these tattoo mags?" LOL!!! But, yeah, so that has me pretty stoked too. I'm not sure what else could go on today that will be good. But, I'm not asking or hoping for anything else. It's been more than I can ask for. And I'm finally feelin' like for once in a long time, I'm exactly where I need to be, and exactly on the path to get to where I want to go. Until next time,

Peace && Love
