So, just got back into town from Charlotte. Was up there for Pagan Pride Day...gotta say it was a huge success up there. I would guesstimate about 2,000 ppl throughout the day were there and more vendors then last. Although i cooked in the heat, i did manage to get a nice tan...lol. I was a little disappointed that some of the workshops were rushed but all in all it was a great time. Was surprised to come back to Charleston and hear about their PPD that seemed to have more ppl then Charlotte but also had a Baptist church outside praying for them...go figure...but to each his own. I wish it lasted more then a day though....like a huge event for the weekend would be fun but alas i will settle for one day...at least for that day i did get re-energized.

So after going away for the weekend to clear my head and just get away with all the negative energies surrounding my house i came back yesterdayto find my dipolma application in the mail. Finally college is over!! I will be receiving my degree in the mail and will be walking next spring. Hopefully things are starting to turn around and if not....i guess another retreat away wouldnt hurt anything.....well except maybe my wallet.

Today my mom had to put our dog down....mainly because of old age. But it still saddens me that she was put down. The past 2-3 years she had many problems with her hip and because of it i

After signing up for my last 2 classes i got phone calls the next week that they were cancelled. So after sitting around and trying to figure out what to do and how to go about waiting another 3 months to sign up for classes and then graduate i got an email from my advisor that i can substitute one of my classes for another (app. another classmate of mine found a loophole in our degree). So today i call my advisor and after a moment of confusion of how i did not get the same class as the other classmate he switched me and now i dont have to worry because come August not only will my internship be over with Marriott and i can start full time with them but i will be able to graduate and move no problem!!

All of this happened before school start and to think this semester just started today.....

The past few months i have been reading all i could on the Fae and learning about them. Using my tarot deck i learned some of their stories and i spent a lot of time recently making a garden for them and trying to connect with them but couldnt tell if they were listening. Today i was signing up for my classes for my last semester in school and as i began to get on my school's webpage my phone rang. So i put my pen and paper aside (the pen on top of the paper mind you) and answered the phone. After about a 3 min phone call with my mom reminding me to sign up for classes i hung up the phone i went to write down the scheduele i made for myself. As i grabbed the paper i noticed the pen wasnt there. I began to search around my desk area for it thinking i just dropped it or i knocked it over. After about 10 min of looking for it i put the pad down and tried to memorize my scheduele. I then called my mom to let her know i was all set for my final semester and when i sat back in my chair my pen i couldnt find was right back on the pad of paper i left it on. I thought for a moment that i had just missed it but as i thought about it i heard laughter behind me and i couldnt help but join in. For about 5 minutes it lasted but it was a laughter that was to contagious to quit. I knew right then i had finally connected with the Fae and non the less it was the Pixies (who i feel i connect the most with) that let me know i've connected.
