Pepsi Refresh project: Whole Hearts

Hi Everyone!

I hope you can all take time to vote for this project! It is really easy to do! Go to the below link, sign in (you can sign in with your facebook and its super easy and they DO NOT spam you!) or make an account and vote. You can also send a text to 73774 with the following message 107706


Also, If you drink Pepsi Products, you can use the Power Votes found on Pepsi products. However I am unsure of how to do this, since I drink Coke.....you would have to look online to see how this is done.

This is a foundation started by Matt Hammit, the lead singer for Sanctus Real (Really awesome Christian band based out of Toledo!!) after his son was born with "half a heart." Bowen (his son) is about 9 months old and has undergone and survived 2 open heart surgeries already. You can read the full story here: www.bowensheart.com

Whole Hearts is currently number 25 and needs to be in the top 10 spots to get a chance at the money. If you can take the time to vote and even pass this along to help the organization that would be fantastic.

Thanks so much! :]

insomniaaaaaaa.



So It's 1:45 am in my part of the world. I can't sleep. I get soooo tired and then the second my head hits that pillow, BAM I'm wide awake. So I thought I'd update my one follower (yeah Jenna!! lol) and the world reading my blog...pssst.

lets see, I got a part time job working as a teacher at the huntington learning center. I dont start for a few weeks, with it being the week of the fourth now, and the owner going on vacation next week, it'll be a long time before I'm earning money. But I will be alright, I dont care its gonna be a great opportunity. They are really willing work with me in the future should I get another real job.

I have an interview thursday for a teachers aide position at an autism school. I spent my student teaching placement with 3 kids with autism. I loved it and want to go back to school to get my special education endorsement with a focus in autism. I think it will be a looooooooooong time before i go back for that. and it for sure wont be at Witt, I' done with that place for a while. However, if i get this job i will get a great feel if i really want to work with children with autism.

This week I'm going on a mini vacation! I'm going to Kings Island for a 3 day long concert with my friends! we are going to spend the night, chill out, and rock out. I'm so excited to go and be with my friends! not that I dont love it at home, but I need to get away! I'm really excited to go to a concert with people who actually LOVE the bands we are seeing! I'm excited to go see Family Force 5 the most......because they have sweet southern accents, love God, and are so much fun! seriously i think i am a southern girl at heart. i love the heat, the accents, everything about it all! ahhhh take me to the south!!!!! :]

Also i am looking at getting a new car. It's been fun looking at cars. I have it narrowed down to a honda CR-V and a ford escape. I love them both. The ford is way nicer, and has way more features than the honda, but i just love the honda! i think the super hot honda salesman has something to do with it a little bit too! ha not really but really. i'm hoping if i get the job as a teachers aide then i will have enough money to buy the car like next week! hey, Dreams can come true!

that is all for now! I'll probably post sometime soon about my crazy adventures and my super giant excitement about the concert this weekend! :]

peace.
