Great Expectations DONE!!

I am sitting in English at the moment, and I am SOOO extremely excited to announce that I am COMPLETELY done with Great Expectations!!!!  I dislike that book.  I just finished my major test on it, so now I'm done.  It is very exciting.  The only motivation I had for reading the book was for Pip and Estella to get together.  I decided at the end of the book that they did.  Anyways, I wasn't a fan of that book.  


Now, I am in health.  I have come to the conclusion that I am all of the following: a fixer, a people pleaser, a clinger, and a controller.  Here are the health book definitions of these words....


  • Fixer- person who tries to fix other people's problems
  • People pleaser- someone who is always concerned with the approval of others
  • Clinger- a needy and dependent person
  • Controller- a person who is possessive, jealous, and domineering


I have recently (about 7 minutes ago) discovered that I am all of these things.  I attempt to help other people, even though it rarely works.  I am WAY too concerned about what other people think about me.  I am very needy and dependent.  I am a lot to handle.  I need to be taken care of most of the time.  Now, there are times when I am completely independent and totally on top of things and fine, but then there are other times when I'm just a wimp.  Moving on....I am definitely a control freak.  That is a work in progress as well as the whole "love thing."  At the moment, I'm thinking about how I don't need other people's approval.  I only need God's.  I also need to work on standing on my own instead of completely falling on other people.  I think prayer can help that problem a lot.  Of course, I am attempting to not be so obsessively controlling.  I've been working on that for a while though.  I think I've improved....a little.  Anyways, I don't really know WHY I decided to write about that today, but now you know my life....
