First I completed my list within 4 days and had it posted in an organized fashion...which was my #56 and 57. But not only that I wrote in my journal once last week and once today! The accomplishment I am most proud of though is my #45! </span><br /><span style="color:#cc33cc;">I GOT MY GED!! I am so proud that I finally got it! The crazy thing is, that it wasn't even that hard! </span><br /><span style="color:#cc33cc;"> Confession time! Am I the only one who puts things off sometimes from fear of failure? That is totally what it is for me! I psych myself out to the point I'm so afraid I'll fail that I just won't do it at all! So, I'm asking a HUGE favor from my blog followers. I'm enrolling in college for the winter semester! Please encourage me to do so. Whenever you're bored or have nothing to do a little comment of encouragement would be great! I know that's a lot to ask from people I don't know but I really need it! A huge thanks in advance! I don't want the fear of failure to keep me from enrolling in school. Maybe since I want it so badly the "want" will override the fear of failure! Anyways, I wanted to share my accomplishments and confess my fear! Lol! I hope ya'll are having a GREAT week! </span><br /><span style="color:#cc33cc;"><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Ash</span></span>Ashley21http://www.blogger.com/profile/04058948261733887294noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878685019153842829.post-60034630670171839782009-09-11T13:49:00.000-07:002009-09-11T16:00:20.487-07:00101 in 1,001<span style="font-family:lucida grande;color:#cc33cc;"> Okay, first of all I never thought that I'd have a BLOG besides on myspace.

Ya Heard Me?<span style="color:#ff0000;"> Well, it has been one of THEM kinda days!! Actually, it's been like that for a few days!!! I came into the hospital Friday, and it has been a nightmare!! I have been sicker these past few days then I remember being in a long time if ever! I have felt like I was straight up dying! </span><br /><span style="color:#ff0000;"> My fever has gone sky high from 9 p.m. till like 3 a.m.! What the heck is up with that?? Oh yeah that fever has been coming with some major nausea! Yuck! Needless to say I've not been sleeping good! Nor have I probably been the most pleasant person to be around! My sweetie has been here taking good care of me. He's waited on me hand and foot and done some pretty gross stuff for me lol! </span><br /><span style="color:#ff0000;"> </span><span style="color:#33cc00;"><span style="color:#cc33cc;">Anyways...so now it's down its 10:39 p.m. central standard time.....and no fever as of right now!! That could be because they gave me motrin when my fever first started escalating tonight. I think they did that mainly because I was complaining about my back hurting! Which it really was! It was making me very uncomfortable!</span> </span><br /><span style="color:#33cc00;"> </span><span style="color:#33ff33;">So, my sweetheart left this morning to go back to Alabama! He had a Dr. Appt Thursday and some stuff to do. Yesterday was six months for us and we have never spent more than a night apart from each other!! On the bright side, maybe I'll keep feeling this well so I won't be so miserable! See there is ALWAYS a bright side, we just have to find it! I've been in here for four days... I have a week and like three days before I get out! </span><br /><span style="color:#33ff33;"> </span><span style="color:#33ccff;">I'm just praying for Strength to withstand this! I'm missing my volleyball games in Alabama! I absolutely hate that! I finally found something to look foward to that I love doing and I'm Missing It! So My Luck! :/ Oh well, when I get out I'll be NEW and IMPROVED! I'm very Thankful for my family and my sweetie tonight! I'm going to close on that happy note! G'Night Ya'll! </span><br /><span style="color:#33cc00;"> </span>Ashley21http://www.blogger.com/profile/04058948261733887294noreply@blogger.com0
