Long Overdue...

I haven't posted anything lately. So, here's whats been going on...

I have a Tuesday night class (Anatomy and Physiology 2) and an online class (21st Century Healthcare Leadership..BLAH).

I go down to Fort Myers mid-day Mondays and I return mid-day Wednesday to Orlando.

On Thursdays and Fridays, I will be starting shadowing for a very talented Cardiologist. Yay.
I (my mom) also bought my first pair of SCRUBS. I am thrilled and I can't wait to wear them.

I didn't do well on the GRE, so I am signing up for an online class and will take it again in a month or two.

I am trying to stay positive. I have a LOT going on with school, shadowing, traveling and it's starting to get to me. I need to focus from now on. So, I hope I can.

I read a book, "Redeeming Love" (for like the thousandth time..) and I feel better. I just wish I had more time to read. I enjoy reading so very much.

That's it. Perhaps my next post will have more substantial information :)

Counting

1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10...
That is my trick. And it works like a charm.

I am a patient person. Really. I am. Or at least I try to be.  But some things and some people push my last button without even trying.  I used to just snap, tell them they were wrong, yell back.. anything, but I made it known to them that they were annoying.

But, at some point, someone (I wish I could remember who!!!) told me that I needed to just count to 10! By golly, what a trick! When I feel like I am about to snap, I simply count to 10 (or whatever number it takes to get calm again). And voila, I am calm.  It works. If you are an impatient person, simply count to 10, and then share the trick :)

Don't judge ;)

Winner! Winner! Winner!

Okay, so I'm not a winner yet. But hopefully I will be...

Prayer

I need some good-old fashioned, hard-core 

PRAYER

for a very dear family extremely close to my heart. God DOES heal and prayer DOES work. 

Freewrite... Why not.

So, for tonight's blog entry, i just decided to write. anything. everything. something. whatever. no grammar, unless it just comes out, no stopping, unless I'm truly wordless...

I started an online class. Well, I was supposed to start an online class. Like 3 days ago. and I was late, to my FIRST assignment. Ugh. I was SOOO angry. I am not late. It just doesn't happen. and to be late for my first assignment shows that I don't care enough to be on time, which is so not true and i just don't want to give the teacher a false impression. I hate myself tonight for being late. I simply hate it. But there is nothing i can do.

I talked to someone tonight. i found out something that i originally, months ago, thought would pain me. the good news: no pain. not a flicker of pain. nothing. it validated my decision and made me feel good and that i made the right decision. yippie :) i feared jealousy, cuz i am a very jealous person, but there was no jealously, and that made me feel really good. and after being mad at myself for the online class, i felt pretty good...

Eh, that's about all the freewrite that I feel like writing... Whatever. Perhaps next time I'll write something more interesting :)
Thanks for stopping by...

I love this baby girl so much that sometimes it make my heart hurt. I can't wait for the day I love a boy this much :)

Break

After taking a break from blogging to go on a fabulous cruise with my mother -- I am back to reality. Well, for a week at least, and then I go day hiking in the mountains for a few days. But then, it really is back to reality... 

I did pretty well this semester, with 2 A's and a B, silly Organic. I was close to an A though, I had a 87..I survived. If you remember, at the beginning of the semester, I wasn't so confident :) I have a slight change in my plans, do to the needed bachelor's degree and wanting to raise my GPA just a tad before I apply. I will now plan on applying in August, instead of July. A bit less stress on me, which is nice.

That's just a little update, and here's a picture from my cruise!!

I was GOING to put more up, but it's taking forever to upload pictures, and I just don't have the patience this evening. This is my mom and I in front of a cave in Mexico. It was SO much fun.

More to come later. 

P.S. Happy Birthday to Jon and Kim!!! (They have the same b-day)
