The mothership has landed!

My mom is here!!! YAY! I missed her super uber mucho grande! lol.

So I had to work last night when mom was going to be coming into town. So I told her on her way off the freeway stop in and you can see everything and we can have dinner together. So all night I kept looking out the window waiting to see her pull up. Everyone there I think was as anxious as I was for her to get there... I am sure my constant what time is it? or how long does it take to get from point A to point B questions were getting on their nerves. I convinced the shift manager (whose name I will not reveal lol) to let everyone else take their lunches that way when mom got there I could have mine right away. He was very compelling and really didn't care. Well mom was just a little late...ok like 2hrs! lol so the whole time I was telling everyone our plans and how excited I was. They put me on dish duty lol but even that couldn't get me down! So she got there about 8 and I introduced her to everyone, they call her mom, or Amanda's mom lol it was cute. Then we had dinner at the iron skillet, I get 50% off so for two meals it was only like $8!!! Amazing. Then I gave her the official tour and that was that. she went back to the apartment and waited for me! Today we have some shopping to do.... including my snow tires yay! I will survive the winter. I think I can I think I can I think I can...

But last night at work my friend (we will call him smith) came into work. This is the guy, I think I have talked about him, the one who asked if he was the first black man I have ever seen. Well he came back in and I didn't recognize him and he didn't recognize me, so we went through formalities again blah blah then we remembered each other, and I told him how everyone thought It was hysterical how he asked about him being the first black man I have ever seen. Now that I think about it I am glad that is the only question he asked me lol... man that could have been awkward lol.

So school is amazing. I think the part that is really mind boggling is the fact that when I am sitting in my deaf culture class which we have been taking notes all week basically and I am sitting there writing things down and I enjoy it. I am so use to sitting in a history class hating how all we do is take notes. Constantly yawning and tired and I just want to get out of there. It is so crazy to think that I am finally really taking classes that I am 100% interested in you know. I don't know how else to explain it, but I have learned so much already. I didn't even realize how much history there is to the deaf culture and its only the first week! Needless to say deaf culture is my favorite class. My 2nd favorite is my communications class. I have a great little group in that class and we do these activities that are so much fun and really get you to think. And the best part is people really take it seriously. It isn't like High School where people do it with half a brain I mean these people are really interested in learning, and I think it makes it a completely different environment. I am absolutely in love with college.

In my health class yesterday we had to get into groups to talk about the chapters that we were suppose to read. Well I was assigned to talk about the chapter that involved a lot of sex. Of course I had to choose a group with 3 very....very cute guys! And of course I was blushing madly as I was explaining to them about sexual attraction and kinetics or what ever it was lol. It was so embarrassing but they were troupers!

Stay tuned!
