Home again...

After a much too long hiatus from the bloggy world, I am back (I know you were worried!)

The last 2 weeks were some of the busiest of my life...from 4 finals, my birthday, vacation...I haven't even had the time to breathe!

Speaking of finals....I thought I'd give you an update to my last post entitled "Dear Neuroscience".
  • I most definitely did NOT kick Neuroscience in the cajones. In fact, the Neuro Final kicked me pretty swiftly in the cajones. I don't even have cajones.

  • I actually felt pretty good going into the test AND after the test...too bad my grade doesn't reflect that confidence!
  • But!! I PASSED THE CLASS!!! WHOO HOOO!!!!!!! That means NO MORE NEURO EVER! AND HELL SEMESTER IS OVER!!! AND I PULLED OVER A 3.0 FOR THE SEMESTER!! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Anyways, enough about neuro and cajones. After finals my friends had a celebratory slumber party where my amazing friend Chelsea suprised me with a spectacularly fabulous Strawberry Shortcake Cake that she made from scratch for my birthday!!!! I wish I had pictures from the slumber party to share, but others do and I'm WAITING for them to be posted on Facebook!

Then I came home and celebrated my actual birthday with Trace (who took me shopping and let me pick out an amazing new "dressy watch" with a diamond in it!) and my family (we made tacos and margaritas). My mom didn't have time to make me a cake so she just stuck candles in the leftovers of Chelsea's cake and we ate all that! Yum!

At 6am the next morning, my family and I set out for Sunny Florida... where it was actually cloudy and quite chilly (not to mention the hurricane force winds) for the majority of our trip. There was one day that I actually sat on the beach in sweatpants, a heavy jacket, wrapped in a blanket, with the hood up! And was still cold! The good part is that our beach house offerd 2 balconies that overlooked the ocean completely (good for reading when the weather isn't cooperating!) and all we had to do when the weather cleared was run down the stairs to the sand! It was amazing and relaxing and EXACTLY what I needed to recover from this ridiculous semester!!

Now it's 3 more days of vacation in Tulsa with Trace before summer school starts on Tuesday!! BOO!!!

  1. Yay for passing neuro. and the awesome gpa!!!!!!
    Glad the cake came in handy! I had Kelli email the great picture of you blowing out your candles, so I'll post about it soon. I wanted to wait until you were back so you would see it!
    Florida might not have been as warm as you would have liked, but from the pictures, it looks gorgeous!!!
