Hi everyone.
A-M,
I know it's hard to come to grips with the truth sometimes, but I think you are doing the right thing. I'm glad you are going to meet with your pastor and find a roommate to live with near home. It sounds like you are making some good decisions, I'm proud of you. Yes, you need to find a guy (eventually) who will respect you and not hurt you. But I agree that you should probably take a break from relationships for a while. I hope things start being on the up and up for you. I'm with you.
April,
I'm sorry to hear you've been struggling so much lately. I'm referring more to your previous post. I know it's scary to go to you T and N and everyone for help, but they are there to help you. They are trying to work in your interest, they aren't against you. I can empathize because sometimes when I'm struggling I don't want to go to those people either, but usually I force myself to go to see if they can help me. And if I'm not open and honest with them, then how can I expect them to really help me? You are such a beautiful person, April, it saddens me when you are struggling and "falling down the rabbit hole" - I want you to have everything in life and be content.

Nothing much going on here, just been studying for my big exam today in my Theories of Personality class. It's over 4 theorists - Rogers, May, Allport, and Eyseneck. I feel prepared for it now so I'm using one of the university computers now. I hate not having a working computer! Well, the good thing about it is that I find different things to do with myself when I get off work. I've been reading even more than usual, reading my Bible as well, and last night I did some Pilates-type exercises. Plus I worked on an oil pastel portrait. Though I haven't done oil pastel in ages and it looks pretty weird right now. Oh well. haha
Concerned about my sister right now because she just lost her teaching job. She will be done at Christmas break. I feel for her. What will she do next? Teaching is her dream but I don't know how it can work now....
