Blueberry Bliss

[Tues 17]
Woke up early to leave for Grand Haven! I had a couple of classes I needed to take to start work in the fall. For anyone who reads this and does not know, I am going to be a caretaker for an autistic boy during the school year. I got to my apartment around 11:30. Driving out to Grand Haven by myself was weird! It was sad because last time I was up at school, I was with my best friends and this time I was all alone. :( I know that during the school year I am going to get sad because two of them won't be there!
The class was boring.. it was about setting goals and being self determined, etc. I made a goal to get all A's next semester and explained to the class just how I am going to do so. I guess this showed that everyone, even mentally challenged people need goals.
Off to Trevor's house. I was happy to see him and his caretaker Emily again. :) We went and hung out by the pool. He is a good swimmer! She showed me a couple of new things and then we watched Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers (the intro about 20 times....lol) and Ratatouille. I can warn you all that Disney quotes and songs will be popping up quite frequently in enough time. That is Trevor's favorite thing! He memorizes word for word, every movie line and lyrics. I can tell that I am really going to love working with him. :) I felt that taking a picture would be rude- at least until I know him better, or at least tell his mom about my blog.
I talked to his dad for a while and already feel at home there, I love it!
On my way to the apartment, I stopped to get blueberries. The entire drive to Grand Haven, the road is lined with blueberry farms. I LOVE blueberries! I made my favorite creation- vanilla soy milk with blueberries. Yum!!!
 I went for a quick run and then headed over to C1 to watch teen mom with Liz and Lizzie. It was nice to see those girls! Sunsets on the West side are always good- too bad I was too lazy to go to the fields to take a good pic.
