Overcoming Suicide

Hey there everybody! Sorry this post is late. I could't put together two thoughts for this, so I needed to just wait and think. This week has been a lay-low week. Well, to be correct, lay-low since Tuesday. I twisted my knee on Tuesday afternoon, so I haven't really been able to walk. The up side to that is my cat, Amie Grace, hasn't really left my side whenever I go out into the living room. She's pretty much the best cat ever. Kingsleigh's still alive and swimming happily. As per the title of this blog suggests, I've been doing a lot of writing lately. I started a novel about four years ago, and I recently started back up again. I've been writing a lot. Bridey, Michael, Cat and Monica have been reading it and giving me feedback to say what needs to be improved. I'm hoping to finish it this year and publish it for all of you guys to read. I've been working hard on it, and I've gotten some publishing information from a friend of mine. I had a pre

Hey everybody. This week has been stressful and frustrating, as the title suggests. My room was infested with fleas. Again. So, I am covered in bites. I also have had no success in finding a job. I don't know why. I have applied to five different places, and it has been two weeks since I filled out the applications, but it's been all radio silence. I have been so stressed that it has been affecting my sleep. Wednesday night I got no sleep, so I was absolutely exhausted all day Thursday. My parent's wouldn't let me take a nap or sleep at all through the day. Tears and movies were a part of my day. I ended up passing out at 9:30pm, and I slept until 11:15am Friday. With all the great sleep I got, you'd think it would continue, right? Wrong. I didn't get to sleep until 4, and I only slept for 6 hours. I am so far beyond exhausted. So, sleep would be fantastic. Class has been pretty good this week, even though it's the first week. I've been working hard at k

Hey everybody! This week has been kinda tough. Like emotionally and physically. Sleep is still evading me, and I'm so ready to sleep normally again. This week also marked the end of my freshman year of college, even though I didn't have any classes this semester. I had to say goodbye to all of my friends, save Michael and Bekah. Saying goodbye was harder than I expected, and I spent a couple of days in bed crying and wishing that my friends didn't live so far away. I mean, Bridey is 7 hours away, and Lissie is in Alaska, so the only way of communication is texting or FaceTime or something like that. Honestly, I don't know how I would've survived this semester without all the friends I made at LeTourneau. Everything fell apart so quickly and so suddenly that there were times that I didn't want to wake up in the mornings. But Bridey, Kendal, Lissie, Bekah, Michael, Kelsie, Claire, Jake, Micah, Emily, and Martha were there when I needed them and the way they rallie
