Love Home!

Sitting at my kitchen table at home. Enjoying my first cup of coffee (might have two cups today) and surfing the internet. Next will be going through my two bridal magazines and the IKEA catalog. Bailey’s in the chair to my left. I am enjoying every minute of this and loving being home. No studying, no worrying, just loving life and relaxing.

On The Road Again, Just Can't Wait To Get On The Road Again

I'm leaving here at precisely 5:05 after I walk to my car after work. No stopping for gas this time - going straight through!

I'm ready to be home. Classes are over which I am beyond excited about and it's about time I have a relaxing summer with what little is left. 3 weeks of summer! Woohoo! Then a great fall semester with friends in town and fun weekends planned.

I'm stoked! :D

I Love You, a Bushel and a Peck

I love him soooo much. He is my everything and I really can’t wait to see him tomorrow night. I want to jump into his arms and feel his wonderful bear hug around me. I will never be able to get another hug as good as his. He is the best hugger ever. :)

Tomorrow night I head home for a fantastic week. I will have some pesky errands to run during it, but for the most part, I get to spend time by the pool,  hang out with my love, and see my friends I haven’t seen in a while. I can’t wait!

And when I get back to College Station, my other friends will be in town! Yay!!! :)

So many things to look forward to!

P.S. I was looking at my calendar today and I only have 2 free weekends in September and October. Busy months!!! I’m so excited that my life is finally taking off!!!

P.P.S. My final reference is in! Woohooo!!! Only statement of purpose to go!!! [see previous post about those details]

Full Plate

The next 24 hours are going to be so hectic and busy. I hardly have enough time to do anything!

I will be studying for one exam and taking it, then finishing up a study guide for my exam tomorrow and studying for it. Then I have to do laundry, clean, and pack to leave for a week. At some point I need to pick up my prescription too. It doesn't sound like much, but holy cow, those all are time-consuming activities.

I'll proably be seeing you again in 24 hours. Adios.

Statement of Purpose

I'm almost finished with all of my applications and such. It'll be a great feeling when it is finally all done and out of my hands. For nursing school, I just need some immunizations and to sign up (and take) a test. And for grad school, all I need is for one of my references to complete her end, and then I need to write my statement of purpose.

Yes. Statement of purpose. What does that mean? Well, basically I have to sum up how I feel about health, why I want a career in health, and why that grad school should pick me over the other health nuts applying. I know you might be thinking "hey, that sounds easy!" But it's not.

That's like asking a preacher to summarize and explain the importance of the bible in two pages. Or, how about asking a politician what they want to change when they get in office? Do you think that Picasso could have put into two pages of words his passion for painting? This is so impossbile.

Not to mention, there's so much pressure involved. Not only does this essay need to reflect me as a student and health enthusiast, but also as a person. It needs to be flawless and perfect. This could be the difference between acceptance and decline.

So where do I begin? I have no idea. My boss helped me kind of draft an outline, and I suppose I'll search around the internet for some tips. Then I'll write my statement and have about a million people look over it. I NEED this statement to be me in two page form.
