Back to the Grindstone

I started classes yesterday. So far I'm enjoying my schedule. I only have one class today. Tomorrow is going to be my busy day though b/c I have a night lab from 6:30 to 9:30. I'm not really looking forward to that at all.

My Christmas Break was amazing but not long enough. Matt was home for 2 weeks and we spent I think pretty much everyday together. I took him to the airport New Year's Day with his parents. He won't be home again now until April. I really really miss him, but I'm really proud that he is serving our country.

Well, that's all for now! Have a great week!

Home For The Holidays

It is so nice to be home right now. I can't remember the last time I have been home and haven't had some type of homework or studying to do. I love just relaxing and not having the thought in the back of my mind that homework is to be done. Today I get to go visit Alyssa at Bethel. I am so excited! I haven't seen her in like a month, and we haven't hung out in a really really long time. Tomorrow and Thursday I just get to relax again. My dad and I might go to Ft. Wayne to finish my Christmas shopping one of those days. Friday Matt comes home, but I won't get to see him til Saturday. Saturday evening Matt and I get to hang out for the first time. I am so excited and nervous at the same time but can't wait! Sunday I'm going with Matt to his family Christmas. That should definitely be interesting. Not sure how that is going to go yet...lol. I am just so thankful to be home with family who loves me right now. Have a great week!

It's definitely been an interesting 2 weeks. Actually not really interesting. I spent most of the past 2 weeks studying anatomy. However, today is a very happy day b/c I had my anatomy final and am done studying anatomy for a whole month! I am so excited you don't even know. I had my anatomy and abnormal psychology finals today. Tomorrow I don't have any finals. Wednesday I have philosophy and Thursday I have statistics. So basically I get to do nothing for the next week! It's amazing. I cannot wait until Christmas Break. There are numerous reasons but here are just a few...

• I get to actually see Matt instead of just talking to him on the phone =D...I can't wait for this!
• I get to go to Bethel to visit Alyssa who I haven't hung out with in a REALLY REALLY long time!
• I get to spend time with my family.
• I have NO MORE anatomy to study over break. This will be the first break I've had since school has started from anatomy.
• I get to sleep in and just relax!

Needless to say, Thursday cannot come soon enough! Hope everyone has a great week!

I'm Sick

So this morning I woke up at 2:30am with the flu. Needless to say, I didn't sleep much from then until like 7am. I'm not really sure why I got sick. I haven't been around anyone who has been sick that I know of. Fortunately today was my light day and I was able to skip my one class. I'm finally able to keep some sprite down so hopefully the worst is over. I'm just really achy and think I'm running a fever. Hopefully I'll be better tomorrow b/c I actually have important classes that I really need to go to. I dunno. Being sick sucks!

Things I Have Never Done

So next Monday is my 20th birthday. It's really hard to believe that I'm actually that old. I definitely don't feel that old. In honor of me turning 20, here is a list of things I have never done. Enjoy!

• I have never had a serious boyfriend (although that might be changing soon).
• I have never run a full marathon although I have run 6 half marathons (once again, hoping that will change also).
• I have never had a B in high school or college (hoping to keep it that way).
• I have never been kissed
• I have never been in an accident
• I have never gotten a ticket
• I have never watched the entire Little Mermaid (random I know)

Anyways. The last 20 years of my life have been pretty good, and I hope the next 20 are even better!

I Voted...Did You?

So today is election day and yes I did vote. I actually voted like 2 weeks ago b/c I had to do it by absentee ballot since I'm in Ohio but registered in Indiana. I'm not going to share who I voted for b/c it's my opinion and nobody else's. One thing that really bugs me, though, is when somebody doesn't vote and then complains for the next 4 years about who was elected. In my opinion, if you don't vote, you can't complain. So go out today and cast your vote so you can have the right to complain about whoever gets elected :) (I'm just kidding by the way. Voting is about way more than getting to complain...lol. Everyone should still vote though)

I cannot express right now how ready I am for Christmas Break. I am so tired of all the homework and studying. Sometimes I wonder how I'm going to make it through when I'm this tired of stuff and I still have 4.5 years left. Ugh. Then all I have to do is think how blessed I am to actually be able to pursue the career of my choice. God has blessed my with this incredible opportunity to actually become a physical therapist so the least I can do is actually take a little bit of time to actually study so I can become the best I can be.

Anyways, this weekend was pretty good. I didn't have too much homework to do. Friday I went to Cheddar's with my friends. It was such amazing food. Plus I got gas for $1.99! Definitely had to take advantage of that opportunity. Saturday I studied for my anatomy lab practical and worked on a paper for abnormal psychology. I think I'm coming along pretty well with both of those things except for the muscles I need to know on the cat we are dissecting in lab. I'll have to look those over tonight and tomorrow so I'm sure I know them by Wednesday. Sunday I went to church. I also was able to talk to a friend who I don't get to talk to very often. We talked almost the whole day so I didn't get too much homework done. That's ok though. Saturday I did most of the stuff that really needed to be done.

Well, enough of my ramblings. I need to get back to studying!
