Extremely Random Update.

Hello, fellas:-)

The truth is, right now I am in the best mood that I've been in for awhile. I think PMS is the culprit. Hormones are being released all over my body and carried by my blood throughout my body to the receptors that somehow make me cranky. For some stupid reason, my receptors did not send out a signal to stop releasing the hormone, and so it kept going on and on. This horrible depression...this bad mood. And of course, the duration of influence was probably like, 5 years, hahaha...

Yeah, I just got done studying hormones in my anatomy course. It's probably the first or second most interesting module we've done thus far. Anyway, lacking in eloquence though the above paragraph may be, it is true. I have been suffering (and yes, I do mean suffering) from PMS for awhile now. The worst symptoms I've had in months and months, including, of course, this bad mood. But for some reason I got up today and I was like, hyper and happy. So I guess that frickin' hormone is no longer being released, haha...

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned in any previous blog entries, but I quit my job at the restaurant where I used to work because they're ignoramuses. HAHAHA. But yeah. They weren't so good and no one that has worked there and no longer works there has anything good to say about it. I applied at the new restaurant in town called Elijah's Cafe, and I haven't even worked there yet, but I'm already loving it. I mean, this might sound weird, but I love the fact that they make me memorize the whole menu and train for days and take a health class. I love it because it means that 1) I'm working for a good business that actually takes pride in being non-disgusting and organized 2) They actually care about me being confident about my job and in my ability to do my job. With the other restaurant I worked at, they kind of had me trained, except not by the right people because the girl that was supposed to train me had an attitude about it...so basically anyone that was willing to help train me pitched in a little. At Elijah's, they're actually making me go through a class, which is really nice in a weird way. I know the menu, and I know the abbreviations, and the prices, so when I'm waiting on someone, I won't be treated like an idiot, and the cook isn't going to yell at me because of the way that I chose to abbreviate something that no one told me the right way to abbreviate.

OKAY! Bad Kendra. No ranting! Lol.

Anyway, as for other new things in my life...Co'op is going very well. I'm making new friends and becoming closer to the ones I've already made all the time...I'm seeing different sides of people that I love, love, LOVE, and even the guys are like, super awesome. They are so lovable and sweet and just...awesome. Yeah.

I'm also taking a drama class there, and we're doing Pride and Prejudice the play. My really good friend Katelyn got the part of Elizabeth, and I got the part of Jane...the oldest sister, who falls in love with Mr. Bingley. It's way cool because Jane is one of the biggest parts (not really the main character, but she has one of the main love stories), and I get to act alongside one of my best friends as her sister! It's going to be a lot of fun and I'm getting more and more excited about it all the time. We found patterns for dresses (we're making our own), and they're really beautiful and elegant. I can't wait!!! My lines are actually coming along quite easily, too:-) The oooooonly awkward thing is about the guy that plays Mr. Bingley. We haven't worked with blocking yet, and we have to act all lovey-dovey and run around stage being like, "Woo-hoo, we're getting married!" and I'm a little nervous about that. I don't think he is. I don't think he even seems to notice that it's a love story, hahaha...but it's just going to be interesting:-D

Oh, and also one of my other good friends at co'op is having a Valentine's party:-D I really love co'op. More and more all the time. It's becoming my outlet. My escape. My hideaway from Hickville, Texas! My friends are perfect and they really like me there. I'm getting invited to parties and expanding my social life, and I'm just...having a great time of it:-D

That's all I can think of for now. Yeah, kind of random. But please pray that I can get my school work done!!!

Dang - I had a great comment here - and then lost it - stupidfingermouse!
Anyway - glad the PMS is alleviating. I noticed you were returning to yourself - and a little less of the Cruella DeVille edge.
I love you -
Glad you're finally using this totally schnazzy blog!

I love you as much as I love your mom!!! Are we related by chance?

My hormones seem to dictate my life and they have as long as I can remember, embrace them my dear don't fight them, trust me I am 36 and just learning how to do this :)

Thanks for the update and glad you aren't so cranky although I think just being 17 qualifies, thank the good Lord above that you have the mother you do :)
