So when I left Riley's today, I figured I would just go back to the apartment I am pet sitting at. Halfway there I come to an intersection where there is a cop car blocking one of the four lanes of traffic but the officer is talking to someone on a side street. I didn't know what it meant and I guess the car in front of my didn't either. We both went around the cop car and started going down the road. Suddenly the car in front slams on their brakes. Confused I looked around their car to see this:
Yes, my friends, that is a GIANT historical house coming down the street at us with the other half of it coming up behind it! It was so big it took up all four lanes. The car in front of me and I both did U- turns and got out of there. Safe to say, this was not how I was expecting to see this morning.
Namaste my friends.
Love,
Kelly Star

I Have Alot Of Thinking To Do...
I am over at Riley's again. She has been in bed for a while. The quiet has left me with alot of time to think and I don't know if it is because of the stress of my situation that is making me sick or if I have caught some sort of stomach bug.
As I mentioned before I have a meeting with my Sterile Processing teacher and the Dean of Miller- Motte College on Monday. I am nervous about what is going to be said. I am starting to get to the point where I really don't trust anything. I noticed that Ms. Walker has finally graded my paper. I have a 100% on it. While it was a decent paper, I don't know if I got that grade because I earned it or because she is covering her ass.
Whatever the outcome of the meeting, I know I am not going back to MMC next quarter. I don't know if I am going to Durham Tech or Wake Tech this fall or if I can even get in. I don't even know if I want to continue at this point with school. I kind of want to take a break from it and get a full time job to go along with the job I have with Riley. If I do this option I can make enough to move in with Matt and out of my parents' place (I was only living there to keep my cost down while I was in school). Plus I can put money away for when I do go back to school.
If I do go to school, I have a few things to figure out. It mainly has to deal with rather or not Durham Tech and Wake Tech will even take my credits or not. There is a very good chance that they may not take my credits which means I have to start ALL over again with even the basics. If I have to start all over, should I just pick another major to do or continue with Surgical Technology (they both offer this program) which was my original goal at MMC? If I do pick another major what do I pick? The job that I have had that I have loved the most was being a nanny (not like I am to Riley right now but a real daytime nanny) but I know that there is no future in that nor can I raise a family on that kind of salary. There is no job security. I chose Surgical Technology because anatomy fascinates me and health care jobs are in demand and there is job security there. But will I be happy there?
I plan on talking to the other colleges on Monday after my meeting to find out if they will take my credits or not. Then I will have to figure out what I am going to do. I also have to figure out finical aid and loans too. Plus I have to weigh which campus I want to go to. Durham Tech is closer but muggings, etc are common. Wake Tech is safer but almost an hour away so the gas is going to cost alot.
I don't know what to do... Any suggestions?
Namaste my friends,

Random Thoughts And Things I Have Noticed On This Blogging Platform
First of all, Kelly Star is not my real name. It is sort of a self imposed nickname/ nom de plume. Kelly is my real first name. Star is a made up last name but yet still a family name from a few generations ago. I am not going to use my real name on here because with the weirdos and whatnot out there, it would just be dumb. However, I may have to change my name after finding out that not only do I share Kelly Star with a porn star wannabe but she too has a blog on Blogger. Okay okay so she spells it Starr but it is still too close for comfort. I am debating if I should change my nom de plume but if I do, it won't have the same meaning to me as Kelly Star does. I have an email account for when I use things like craigslist that has the name Kelly Star as the senders name. When ever my phone buzzes with a notification for a email for Kelly Star, both me and Matt say it like that girl says "Super star" in, well "Superstar".
Another thing I have noticed as I hit the button marked "Next Blog" to see what is out there, I have noticed that it is either a Christianity devotion blog or a blog about some mom and her kid(s) and her happy husband (they all seem like charmed little lives that belong on a lifetime movie). Or both. I have occasionally stumbled on to a random trip blog or living in another state or country blog. This site is made up of more different people than I thought. It is interesting to read through them and briefly see the world or someone else's world through their eyes. I wonder sometimes if there is someone out there reading my posts and seeing things through my eyes.
Namaste my friends.
