Sweet Summertime

I would think that since it is summer, I would be more inclined to things, however, that is not the case. I have been enjoying my time at home and I have not accomplished much. I have gotten some major knitting done, however.

As many of you may know, I’m seventeen years old. I wasn’t much on the driving thing, but I’m currently enrolled in Behind the Wheel and next Wednesday, I will have my license. I am excited, however, I’d be MUCH more excited if I had a car. *ahem parents, get on that*

The woman that is my instructor is crazy. I’ve listened to her tell stories about the abuse of her father (sexually abused her), how her mother didn’t love her and want her, her first husband was abusive, etc. It’s like we are her therapist. I’m glad that I’m doing this with my friend, Maria, if not… I would go insane. Some of her stories are so crazy that I have to bite my lip not to laugh, even though they are usually horrible. I don’t know what to say to some of the stuff she tells me, either.

I have gotten some good knitting done, to say the least. Ravelry is currently updating their pattern classification system, so I’ve been helping to organize patterns. I have done over 100 so far, which is good. They are giving out some sort of prizes for people who help with the pattern classification. I sincerely hope to earn a prize of some sorts, since I have worked so hard.
