<3

Well, my computer decided to sort of crash a few days ago. The bad news is that it's very hard to do homework without it. But fortunately, Daniel just happens to be somewhat of a genius and a Computer Information Systems major, and he fixed it for me....yay :)

Last weekend was the first major event that I helped to plan for my job at Life Care. We threw a fall carnival to celebrate the work we are going to do with Operation Christmas Child. It was a lot of hard work and a lot of fun. In addition to making sure things were running smoothly, I ran the face-painting and colored hair spray booth. It turns out, I'm not very good at face-painting...but we didn't have a mirror at the booth, so luckily the kids were not aware of what they looked like until they got home.

One little boy kept asking me to draw Iron Man on his cheek. After a long discussion about the fact that I CANNOT draw people, I talked him into letting me just write the words "Iron Man" across his forehead. He wasn't very pleased, but I thought it turned out pretty good.

My Fall Break is coming up, thank goodness. It will be really nice to get away from classes and school for a while and go home for a few days. I'm leaving on Wednesday and coming back to Lee on Sunday. It's a short trip, but it is greatly needed.

I'm trying to come up with a fun plan for this weekend, but I have no ideas. My brain is dead. If anybody has any suggestions, feel free to let me know!

Happy Friday!
