Today has been one of those days that you wish it would hurry up and be over with. I am so ready to be out of school for the day. I should look at things in a positive way though. After this class I am half way done with my day. I am not looking forward to having a history exam in my last class. That teacher is a witch too, constantly glaring. Hey, maybe if I get her a broom she will be quiet. Nah, it’s not worth the effort. I studied for this test a lot last night. I typed up all of our class discussions and a few notes from the book as well. I’ve been working a lot here lately, too much actually. I’ve applied at the Arc of the Ozarks, they make really good money and their hours are similar to my boyfriends. We could both work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 3-11 and not have to worry about one another. Hopefully we can get a house in March. We have been looking for one for quite some time now, my coworker wants to move in as well and that will help. I’m hungry, and not the “I havnet eaten” hungry but the bored hungry. The hungry where your mind doesn’t want to do anything else except think about food. I’m at a loss for words at the moment because my senses won’t cooperate. The little story we had to read kind of freaked me out some. Talking about death and all sorts of stuff, I don’t watch NCIS for a reason. Although I like Gibbs the crime scene stuff freaks me out because idiots in the world actually do that crap to other people.

Today has been an ok day; it started with me running late for school which is terrible considering I live about an hour away. I forgot to print off my 'I Am' poem, but it was completed so that’s a plus. I’m not sure what to say about this weekend, it was good though. I worked about 30+ hours since Friday. I am pretty tired but I will survive. I’m actually excited about this semester. I hope it brings a lot of fun, new, and exciting things into my life. I think I have a history test this evening, I think I better study for that. I’ve taken all the appropriate notes so I may just skim over those. I took a humanities test this morning and I believe I did very well on it. I’m a little concerned for this semester only because I am enrolled in two schools and work full time. I have a lot on my plate right now.

Intro

My name is Cheyenne Long; I am a second semester student here at OTC. I plan to get my associates through OTC then transfer to MSU.  I graduated in 2012 from Ash Grove, Missouri. I grew up in a small town and love nature. Agricultural education is my dream career. Although it’s my dream, I am not sure I could handle all the junior high and high school students. I was enjoying my time off. I work forty hours a week, go to OTC, and am enrolled in cosmetology school. I do not want to be a cosmetologist, I am a very imaginative person and I love art. Cosmetology just isn’t my calling. I am just beyond excited to hopefully become an amazing agriculture teacher. I hope to be just as great as the one I had in high school. I live in Lawrenceburg. I am so scatter brained today that it’s kind of funny. Last semester I told myself no classes before 8 but what happened? The only humanities class that was open on Tuesday and Thursday was 7 am. My heart hit my feet when I saw that. But at least it’s the exact same schedule as last semester just with different classes. I hope this semester goes by smoothly; I am excited to see what it brings to me. I grew up in a small town and on a farm. My parents own 80 acres and I live in the rent house that we own. I need to find a roommate because bills are getting hard to pay. That is the typical story of a college student though. I am a person that loves to be outside, nature is amazing. The feeling you have when you are sitting in a tree stand and nature is at its best is remarkable.

Oh joy school once again. The coffee in front of me looks amazing as well as the chocolate chip muffin I have brought as well. Although they look so good I cannot touch them due to typing. Last night wasn’t a late night like Monday night, thank God. I’ve cut back on my hours at work because I started school back up. There are plenty of positives to cutting back on hours; I have more time to spend on my studies. A major negative is income. Now with fewer hours at work my income has decreased and spending costs have increased because of my rent house. Bills will eventually start to pile up and I will fall being right about when summer break rolls around. I haven’t decided if I will take summer classes here at OTC or not. Scholarships are honestly the only reason imp coming to school now, without those I wouldn’t have enough money to attend. I am also enrolled in cosmetology school in Willard, MO. that’s about $11,000 and imp almost done attending school there. I should have the 1500 hours needed to graduate by June or July. My birthday is in July and I would really enjoy being done by then. Man, I get distracted way too easily. My brain ping pongs everywhere here lately. I don’t know if it’s from lack of sleep or just being too stressed out. I’m going out with my girls tonight to our weekly Midnight Rodeo outing. Those girls are crazy; they drag me along every Thursday night saying I need to find me a good guy. It’s insane how much my friends have done for me through everything I’ve been through in the last six months. I love my girls!

Well I am beyond tired because of this going away bash for my best friend last night. He leaves to go to mizzou on Wednesday and I won’t see him until summer again. Last night was a blast; we had a lot of fun and made some really good memories. I wasn’t ready for college to start honestly. I was enjoying my time off. I work forty hours a week, go to OTC, and am enrolled in cosmetology school. I do not want to be a cosmetologist, I am a very imaginative person and I love art. Cosmetology just isn’t my calling. Agriculture education I do believe is. I am just beyond excited to hopefully become an amazing agriculture teacher. I hope to be just as great as the one I had in high school. You say you went to Miller for a while, my cousin Cody Ensly graduated in 2010. There is a possibility that you may know him. I live in Lawrenceburg; I’m not too far away from Miller. Man, right now I am craving a big cup of coffee. I am so scatter brained today that it’s kind of funny. Last semester I told myself no classes before 8 but what happened? The only humanities class that was open on Tuesday and Thursday was 7 am. My heart hit my feet when I saw that. But at least it’s the exact same schedule as last semester just with different classes. I hope this semester goes by smoothly; I am excited to see what it brings to me. I am unfortunately ready to get out of class though; I am meeting friends for lunch that I have not seen since before break. I am excited to see them; I just sadly have no classes with them. I grew up in a small town and on a farm. My parents own 80 acres and I live in the rent house that we own. I need to find a roommate because bills are getting hard to pay.
