"My relapse will not determine my future."

More Middle School funnies.

So I have this newfound relationship, we shall call him " The Boy". I went with The Boy to Higher Bound( Christian Ministry to Middle Schoolers.)

At Dinner, Last Tuesday I was there and chilling out and eating dinner when I got a text that said that my roommate was moving out. Fast forward two hours.

Some kids, The Boy and i were sanding blocks for preschool kids as a service project- Whilest I complain that I have to go roommate hunting. The middle schoolers then told me I should take The Boy as a roommate.

I think I just died laughing. It was Hilarious.

Sex and Middle Schoolers

So I spent my evening with Higher Bound( Christian ministry to middle and high school students).
About half-way through the evening, several of us were sitting around talking about just stuff and a high school junior starts talking about how some things are overrated- drugs, booze, whatever. Then this kid says "Sex is overrated." And it made me pause (which of course all the middle schooler kids noticed- and was like, "so is it overrated?" To which I responded with " You middle school and probably the high schoolers' should not have sex. It just isn't smart.")

Now it didn't make me pause because I think middle schoolers' should have sex or anything like that. It made me pause because I think sex is such a large topic, one that can't be generalized as "overrated" with the wave of hand. I think that, even when talking to middle schoolers about sex, you have to define it for the purposes of the conversation- where does sex begin? sexual touching or PIV( penis in vagina sex) or oral sex, or even include masturbation? I think it might not be all black and white. I think it probably has some grey areas. I don't know how easily it can be pinned down.

Soooo about this blogging daily thing.......


I have no inspiration at this exact second for a useful and informative blog...so instead you get a random post secret from my archive.

"Recovery still feels like losing a best friend."

"There is still hope. There always is."

"you're Alex right?"

So for those of you that don't know, my real name is Alexandria. I've been working at the PE complex on campus for about two months(ish) now. I have like 7 or 8 supervisors- and none of them know me as Allie. It's either Alex, or Alexandria. And for the first time, it doesn't drive me nuts. It'd take way too much work to get it straight with all of my supervisors.

Anywho- about my job. I clean gym equipment, sit ID desks, check out equipment, make boys put on shirts while working out, watch the basketball courts, watch boys work out, clean stuff. yeah.

I have a couple rants about stupid people at work. but I don't feel like typing them out right now....So you get to wait.
