Officially Burnt Out!

Hi, Everyone!

I don’t know if I’m still trying to get adjusted to springing forward, or maybe I’ve been working too hard all this week, but whatever the case, I’ve been some kinda tired… actually, it’s a little from Column A, and a little from Column B. Any other Friday night, Ruby and I would go kickin’ it with Theo, and we would just hang out by the library and chill. However, yesterday evening, I plopped down on my bed and rested. How tired was I? I was so tired that I didn’t even call Mom or Gramma Jewel—that’s tired, fa sho’!

Well, I’m feeling a lot better now. Granted, I’m not well-rested, but I can manage. I think today I’m just gonna walk around on the track—hell, I need to do that anyway. I haven’t weighed myself since Thanksgiving, but I think I’m at or around 140 pounds. Again I want to reiterate: I don’t mind being curvy, thick, and sexy, but I’ll be damned before I wind up being 150 pounds. Remember, I’m four-foot-eleven—too much weight is not good for someone with my height.

Oh, I gotta tell y’all: My speech on my vices yesterday went well. I spoke within ten minutes about how I’m a tad braggadocious, I’m a bit of a perfectionist, and at times, I can be vindictive. When I spoke about that last vice, someone mentioned that I will forever be remembered as “Vipress,” to which I said: “And you bet not forget it, Hon!”

I could’ve easily mentioned that I am also a bit jealous, but since the assignment called for three vices, I adhered to the instructions… kinda! Since I’m somewhat of a perfectionist, I did make mention of this to the class.

Well, y’all, I had better get going. Besides, I’ve got another speech to prepare for. This one is entitled: “My Personal Anthem.” In this particular assignment, I have to pick a song that I have personally made as my theme and explain why. This assignment is gonna be easy on account of I already chose my theme song: “Go The Distance” by Michael Bolton. This speech is due on March 20, but I’ll give you all a sneak preview before then.

By the way: Have you all come to the conclusion that I love Fundamentals of Speech? I’m just askin’!

Until Monday, y’all have a good rest-of-the-weekend.

Hugs & Kisses,

Natasha
