Tomorrow I take my exit exam to pass (or fail) out of nursing school. No pressure, right? Yikes.  Nervous? Yes. Gonna pass? Probably. My heart is about to leap out of my chest……. :/

Sad news...
Jill, a previous co-worker and friend of mine from home, died last night. She fell down her basement stairs and hit her head. It was so unexpected… I’ll miss her.

Edward vs. Jacob
Okay, so I watched New Moon tonight. Definitely a Jacob fan.  Movie #1: Edward fan. Movie #2: Jacob fan. Movie #3: … well, we’ll just have to wait and see :)

December 19, 2008 Here I am. Listening to White Horse by Taylor Swift. I’m thinking about and almost dreading tomorrow. Tonight is the last night I will be spending with my family for a while. After tonight, it’s going to be an empty house. Just me. I really am going to miss all of them. I may not be able to express it very well, but I really will miss them. I didn’t get to...

Headache, headache, go away... and don't come back...
Wouldn’t it be just great if medications didn’t come with side effects? When prescription med commercials come on the TV, the side effects take up more time to list than the positive effects of the drug! I have started a new med and two of its side effects are fatigue and headache. Experiencing both while on the floor at clinicals at 7am… not so great. Can’t wait till...

So I just got home from Fredericksburg… the Norfolk CYC went there to visit Allen and Tara. I hung around with Matts pretty much the whole time (the 16yo). I can’t stand to be inside my own head right now. I think I like him again. Ugh. This is just really frustrating. He’s a really sweet guy, we get along SO WELL… what’s wrong with my stupid brain?

Did I make a mistake??
I was looking through some old pictures from college and saw some from band and stuff and I can’t help but wonder… did I make a mistake in leaving music? Seriously! I know it sounds geeky or whatever but music was all I really had going for me during middle and high school. Sports aren’t my thaaang, so what else is left? Music. But I left all of that to do nursing. I dropped a...

Say whaaaat?
So, not to freak anyone else out (mainly myself), but I have been having some odd aches and pains lately. Mainly pains. Pelvic pain, radiating to my lower back. Irregular visits from Kevin Bacon since forever. Yesterday evening ALONE I peed like 5 times. Abdominal distension and gas. At first I thought it was my appendix… but I have had the pain for 5 days now, and it hasn’t landed...

So… I was taking a little “siesta” today as a break from homework and I actually re-lived a moment from a couple of years ago. Was it a good moment, or a bad moment you might ask? Well let’s just say I woke up scared like I just had a nightmare. What a great feeling.

WAAAHHOOOO!
I get the day off from school because it snowed three inches. THREE INCHES! Sometimes I hate this state, but today I love it. hahaha There were so many accidents though, it’s crazy insane. People don’t know how to drive in ANY weather condition. I have a lot of homework due tomorrow, but I just want to sleeeeep. So sleepy. —- Day one of my FB break has begun. And I almost...
