#9.12.16

I have been so proud of myself. I gave up drinking after the fire because I remember how drinking went after my break up and decided that it was in my best nature not to, since I would probably go into a total breakdown. Since then I have had like three beers on separate occasions and one margarita on New Years. I'm pretty proud of myself considering how much I did before I decided to stop. Just trying to be a healthier, happier me.

I want to be a firemen because one day I could be the one thing standing between helping someone and seeing a little girl like that again. I could prevent a group of people holding up her father as he screamed out for her, knowing and seeing, that she didn't make it. I want to save tons more so losing one could hurt a little less. I went through a make or break you situation on a family's front yard holding the second door fan because we don't leave heavy equipment alone. Standing there with my junior, who I made look away. And all it did was make me.

Today I am grateful for... Solving a lot of maths tasks on my own. Finding the paper I needed. The movie Galaxy Quest.

9.12.16 Social Psychology and Lifespan Development: got most of my baby study written up! Have to look up references for theories of development. Microsoft Word nearly killed me today, but I got a good chunk of my work done! Everyone keeps talking about how long and difficult it is to write up this baby study, but I'm not finding it any bother, which is worrying me slightly. Am I doing something wrong? It doesn't seem so to me. I also took a much needed rest today, because I haven't had a day off in a long time. I'll continue with my baby study tomorrow after work!
