Zebra Town

So I haven't posted in a really long time. My life is not as I would hope it would be at this point. I am not working in a school like I hope and I don't even have my degree. I live in a horrible little town in Alaska called Talkeetna. I love Alaska but I sure hate the town I live in at this point in my life. I suggest to anyone who wants to live here in Talkeetna, DON'T. Sure this place is great to visit! Its busy in the summer and there are lots of things to do. but in the winter it's horrible. Anyway, I am a baker I make the breads the cinnamon rolls, all the sweet stuff and more. I LOVE what I'm doing but the working environment is the worst. I hate it. I hate my job. So I live with my boyfriend, I am not married yet...and I'm not going to hold my breathe either. I have two dogs. Kodiak, who is a talkeetna /trapper creek mutt he looks like a chubby white shepherd. Then there is a new addition named Ystava who is a full blooded Karelian Bear dog/ His name means Friend in finnish, since he is a finnish breed. his full name is pieni ystava which means little friend. He is a adorable. So my life is not at all where I wanted it to be when I imagined things 4 years ago. Over all I hate this town and my job but I love my little family that I have.

This is before I went to the banquet that my school did for us. They do it every year. I bought this dress just for it hahha. It is super long so I plan on asking my mom to help me hem it to a better length. This was last weekend. I had fun. I went bowling afterwards but I should've just gone to bed because I soooo tired when we got the bowling place. But it was good :)

28days till I'm home!! yay! I am so excited! I'm super tired right now. I miss my boyfriend. and I have to take a take home math test this week YUCK! I hate math its my worst subject.

I officially changed my major today to early childhood education! I can't wait to start it next semester! so I believe there are 29 or so days tillll I'm home! yay

I'm changing my major to early childhood education. Because I really don't want to learn more music theory. Monday is when I'm meeting with my new advisor to change it. I am really excited! It isn't just because the classes are hard, I know that everything is going to have something hard to it. I just am starting to realize that I'm enjoying learning about music. I don't even enjoy learning how to write songs like I thought I was going to. Anyway. I am going to be home on the 19th of May at 8:30 am and i can't wait! I miss my family so much! I am going to get a job as soon as I get there. I can't wait! I love AK so much. Seeing everyone is going to be the greatest thing in the world! I'm planning on giving my dad and mom theeee biggest hugs everrrr!! I am going to anchorage first so I can spend a couple of days with just my dad while he is in Talkeetna. Then we are taking th ferry down to Kodiak on the 18th at 10:30 at night. I have all my tickets bought and my excitement is building up and soon it will be over flowing! ahhhhh! hahaha just the thought of home and the comfort of being with Poppa, Mom, Abby, and Bubbs, and of course the dogs, makes me want to hurry up and get these up coming finals over and done with!

I woke up this morning knowing that today was going to be a slow one for me. And I was mostly right. Math class at 8am was a bore but my music class right after that was very fun. I am getting more and more excited about my major. I really don't know why I was being to dumb last semester. I went to my piano lessons and I am suppose to order like three more books! But I am extremely excited because with my new piano teacher she tell me exactly what needs to be done and when it should be done. No slacking and no letting myself get overwhelmed this semester for me!! my homework for my music class that was due today was to compose a tune that went along with the lyrics of The Wondrous Cross. Just the soprano vocal line though. But it was fun and i think what i came up with sounds awesome! I have voice lessons at 4 with my new vocal teacher. I am a bit nervous because he is like one of the head music people in the school. But he is very nice. I am looking forward to it. but my energy is drained out for the day already.
