you know how things in life happen 5 February 2007

for a reason? i had one of those things happen to me. As I continually press upon you all: this year is going rather well for me. My students are getting better at this math thing (hallelujah), and remember those friends I was getting reaquainted with? Well, what I didn’t tell you all is that one of them used to date a friend of mine about 6 years ago. I have been losing sleep for a lil over a week about what to say to her in the event i started REALLY digging one of them. Well, i really like this guy. Like really-really. But I am HARDPRESSED to take it slow cause I don’t want to mess up anything and don’t want to run him off. He knows that I am seriously interested…and although I do believe he likes me, I don’t think he likes me as much as I like him (at least not yet). Anyway, I decided to go on and get the conversation with my friend outta da way. Know what this woman says????? “It doesn’t surprised me. I always did think that you all would be good for each other. The only way I would have been hurt or not approved is if you had not told me…” [of course that was paraphrased, but you get the gist of it...she gave me--us--her blessings]. People…PLEASE understand that I was NOT prepared for that answer. I mean, I didn’t think she would hate me or anything. I thought she would focus on the “I want you to be happy” part. But hearing her say it?? Man, that did me a world of good. You have GOT to thank the Most High for True friends.

As I previously stated, my students seem to be getting better. So, i will continue to try and help them out as much as I can…they deserve that, ya know?!! I even looked over a possible position with a major company (and major pay) to stay here with them. It’s the least I can do.
