Despite the fact that Boromir is only in the Fellowship of the Ring, he’s one of my favorite characters of the LOTR. I know, I know he tries to take the ring from Frodo, and seems overly power crazy but just bear with me and hear me out. He’s a man of passion, loyalty and courage. He wants to lead his people well, wants to see them prosper again. He looks out for his younger brother who is overlooked by their father. And he’s not afraid to make mistakes and then take steps to correct those mistakes. Think about it. He tried to take the ring from Frodo and then took not 1 but 4 arrows to try and save Merry and Pippin!!! He strove to protect them and felt as though he had failed them when after 4 arrows he couldn’t keep going.

Hey There
Wow!! It's been ages since I have actually written!! Well ok I have done a lot of writing, just not here. I guess it may be time for a good life update. Well let's see here... Ok here's how we'll do it.
School: I was thinking the other day how crazy it is that I have been in school for almost 3 years solid, with only a few weeks here and there for breaks. But you wanna know what?? I love it. There are times when I think I am going to go crazy because of it, but that is true of any season. One consolation is that if I ever have kids I will be used to the sleep deprived state of being only I won't be the only one crying in the middle of the night. But anyway back to the point. I am applying for the interpreting program again this spring. I have this weird calm/panic feeling about it. I know that my language skills have improved, but I always worry because I don't test well. Also I am taking only 12 credits this spring term!!! I have been averaging 14+ credits for the last year and a half, I am kinda excited about that!! Oh did I mention that I am studying ASL in the hopes of being an Interpreter someday? Well I am.
Work: In addition to going to school full time, I am working 2 jobs. It's a wonder I ever get any sleep. I don't usually, but sleep is for the dead right?? I work part time as a Personal Support Worker (PSW) and part time as a Librarian Assistant at my school. I have been a PSW for a few years now and I love it, it's a great job and I love the people I work for, but it wasn't till I started at the library that I realized how much I missed having coworkers.Which is saying a lot since I am pretty introverted.
Social Life: Hahahahaha!! lol!!
But no really... I'm still working on this part... Does seeing people at Church on a Sunday morning count??
In all seriousness God blessed me with some of the best Housemates a girl could ask for and I hang out with them quite often!! Like you should be very jealous, I live with the coolest people on the planet (outside of my own family of course).
Anyways that Sorta, vaguely catches you up on my Life to date...
