Trying to come up with anything to do in order to procrastinate on the paper that needs to be written today

So, it is about noon on saturday and I am supposed to be writing a paper, but what have i done instead. I looked at the classes that are being offered for the spring semester at school, i wrote many emails, i talked with my roommate, i ate a bagel, i played with the cats, i talked on the phone. What have i not done, started my paper. Grrrrrrr.

Well, i finished reading this great book Kim gave me. It is called The Perks of Being a Wall Flower. It was a very beautiful book. It had great insight into the life and thoughts of a young high school boy who is very special in many ways. He is a boy who lived his life for others until the very end when he realized that he needed to "participate" in the world. It was great.

Great news. Yesterday at work, my supervisor gave me the newletter from the Turning Point (the place i used to work) and it was super nice. They said all these super nice things about me in it. things like "Staff and volunteers from the Junior League of Plano expressed appreciation to Nada Elias for her role in expanding the Teen Awareness Program." they also said "We definitley could not impact students without all of Nada's training and support." how wonderful is that? I feel so special. (insert sweet smile and blushed cheeks here)

So, last night I went to the Velvet Hookah. It was a good time. It was so nice to catch up with Scott, Denise, and Nick. I was home pretty early, chatted with Leslie for a bit and hit the sack.

also, i set up a babysitting gig for myself. I havent babysat in a quite a long time, but i figured since i am only working parttime now, any extra money would be very useful. so, I am babysitting for chris's aunt and uncle. They have two wonderful little girls. I am excited. It should be much fun. Anyway, i think i am going to force myself to start writing this damn paper. Wish me luck.
