| Welp, Katie and I are sitting here at my job in Knoxville, Tennessee.
I've lived here for about a year now, I absolutely love it.
I moved to the Symposium. I live in the coolest house in the fort, as far as I'm concerned. I hope I stay here until I graduate.
That's about it on the updates. How are you? |

| Have you ever felt that you just weren't good enough? That your best wasn't enough?
Have you felt like you're not as smart as your siblings, or as beautiful as your friends, or as cool as your boyfriend? Well, I've felt like that for a little while.
Then, I realized, that's so selfish of me.
I'm me. Not my siblings, my friends, or my boyfriend. I'm Cynthia. And I'm the only one that can be me. You can try, but I bet'cha can't.
I have the best friends and family that a girl could have. I don't appreciate it enough, I guess.
I'm just overwhelmed with life right now.
I've been sick for a while, and I have a lot weighing me down.
Between needing a job, going to school and keeping my scholarship, and also attempting to enjoy my college years, I forgot what I was doing.
I've been a huge flake... and I appreciate my friends so much for putting up with it. Especially Katie and Karen, for still being my best friends even when I'm not around so much. I do plan to fix that.
I just have so much required of me in life right now. I guess I'm just not mature enough at this point to do it all alone.
The point of this post is just to put my thoughts into words. It's so much easier to make sense of everything once you read it... and also have to organize it so other people can attempt to make some sense of it.
I have a ton of homework due next week.
+ I have a sinus infection.
+ I just am a lazy butt.
Wish me luck on getting everything accomplished! |

| I realized today that I love education. Just the entire subject and meaning altogether.
I'm taking an education class at UCA. I am thinking about becomming a teacher, so it's an introduction to teaching.
But when it breaks down to it, I'm learning the art of sharing an education. That just amazes me.
I am so blessed to live where I do and how I do and to be able to even communicate anything at all.
Knowledge and wisdom are the two most necessary things in life. Wisdom over knowledge, though.
Either way, I have a new-found respect for any educated human being. Being at college is great because I get to be around thousands of people who wish to better educate themselves. That's so exciting.
Not that the only way to be an educated person is to have a degree. That's just an expensive piece of paper that might come in handy later in life.
I just respect anybody who has any desire to better their own intelligence at all.
Anyone with life stories and experiences in general are intriguing to me.
I guess that's why I love old people... and also children.
I like hearing stories from people who lived great lives.
I'm glad that my parents are the most interesting people I know. All in all, what I'm getting at is that I love to learn. And I love people who share that passion. |
