Life as a short person

Valentines Day is just around the corner.
So as much as I would like to say that I'm the type of girl who could give a hoot about it....but honestly, I'm so excited.
Disgusting isn't it? 


Corey and I are going with some friends to Possum Kingdom for the weekend. 
Camping [sort of, we're going in a cabin because we're afraid it will be too cold], hikes, and snuggling. Perfect weekend.
No need for the expensive dinner, dressing up, and doin' a little freaky freaky, I mean, seriously, why put all of that kind of pressure onto a relationship that is already going so perfectly! : ]
So yes, very exciting.


Since we are of course BROKE COLLEGE STUDENTS, our menu is looking something along the lines of:


Taco's one night.
Pasta with tomato sauce another.
PB&J sandwiches
possibly soup??


Romantic eh?? Still, I'm STOKED! I cannot wait to see him! One week feels like an eternity.


Corey keeps reminding me, "There are couples separated with someone in danger off in Iraq! We've got it good!" Of course I know he is right...But still, every day apart brings a pathetic little tear drop. Love? I think so.




So Corey's Mimi sparked an idea. Here it is:


I was sitting, playing with Heidi [Corey's 3 year old sister] when Mimi asked me, "Christina, why aren't you going to be a teacher? You would be great at it!"
CHILDHOOD EDUCATION MAJOR instead of visual communications!!
Heck yeah! Freaking great idea!!
I absolutely adore kids, can be creative during the week with art projects, different teaching styles, and decorating the class room at christmas, thanksgiving, valentines day, earth day....kindergardeners are easily entertained and hey, who doesn't love the ABC's.....?
And heck! I can pursue my passion for photography on the weekends and in the summer doing weddings and senior pictures and everything!
Andddddd, Dad will be so much more willing to pay a fortune on a degree that can be used in so many different environments and WILL ALWAYS BE NEEDED. : ] 
I could change a child's life in a positive way......a lifetime goal!
Omgsh, another plus....Lot's of vacations like Spring break, Summer break, Christmas break! I like!!!!


So yes, there it is. My newest post.
Be excited.

Everybody needs inspiration
Everybody needs a song
A beautiful melody
When the night's so long
Cause there is no guarantee
That this life is easy

Yeah, when my world is falling apart
When there's no light to break up the dark
That's when I, I, I look at you
When the waves are flooding the shore and I
Can't find my way home anymore
That's when I, I, I look at you

When I look at you
I see forgiveness
I see the truth
You love me for who I am
Like the stars hold the moon
Right there where they belong and I know
I'm not alone

Yeah, when my world is falling apart
When there's no light to break up the dark
That's when I, I, I look at you
When the waves are flooding the shore and I
Can't find my way home anymore
That's when I, I, I look at you

You, appear, just like a dream to me
Just like kaleidoscope colors that
Cover me
All I need
Every breath, that I breathe
Dontcha know?
Your beautiful

Yeah yeah..

When the waves are flooding the shore
And I cant find my way home anymore
Thats when I,
I I look at you
I look at you

Yeah yeah..
Oh oh..
You appear just like a dream to me.

Keller sucks
