How Do You Live Your Life?

How You Life Your Life

You are honest and direct. You tell it like it is.
You tend to avoid confrontation and stay away from sticky situations.
You prefer a variety of friends and tend to change friends quickly.
You tend to dream big, but you worry that your dreams aren't attainable.

Sugar Fix

Ok...we have all of these baked goods. Are we (meaning me and Randy) really expected to eat all of them? Don't get me wrong- I love every single little morsel of their yummy goodness but if my hips get any bigger, I won't be able to blame their size on being "big boned" in that region!
What to do with all the yummy goodies? (ha ha- that sounds like the name of that Chinese restaurant in Venice Beach- "Yummy Goody". Never tried it out though).

On Break

After technically being on school break for 2 weeks now, I FINALLY feel as if I am relaxing. I have abso-freakin-lutely nothing to do today except watch Little House on the Prairie and eat Veggie Booty. YAY!!!! This is the life. Maybe I should just quit school and be a housewife. Enjoy myself and eat the Booty before we have kids and I begin the toughest job of my life- child rearing- for no pay whatsoever.
Hmmm...maybe not. I should just enjoy my two more weeks off (one of which will be spent in Indiana) before I have to go head first into school again. Then graduate, get a job, and go from there.
But for now, back to the Booty and Ma and Pa.
That sounds a little creepy, doesn't it?!?

Merry Christmas Eve!

It's finally here! The best holiday of the year (in my opinion)! My favorite Christmas pasttime is watching the video of my dad's last 2 Christmases. They are funny, and I like to remember how my family once was. Even my great grandma is in the videos. My grandpa is healthy, and my grandma does a high school cheer complete with hand/arm motions. My family sings carols (well, we tried anyway) and is at their best in the videos. The sad part? The tape is in Indiana, where I'm not. I really need to make copies so that I can reminesce out here in California.
What kind of favorite Christmas memories/pasttimes do you people have?

Hurray!

It is official: I am done with NS30 and I have one more semester to go in nursing school! Woo hoo! After I took my final yesterday, I could literally feel the stress fall away from my shoulders, then tiredness overwhelmed me for 10-15 minutes. It was like a weight was lifted and I felt 10 pounds lighter. It's funny what stress can do to a person! Now if I could only find out a way to prevent the stress from coming back to reside on my shoulders January 9th. That would be no small feat!!!!
I'll be on my way to Kansas City tomorrow to be with my friend Angie. She's in nursing school too and takes her finall tomorrow. We'll probably go out and do some stress reducing activities the next few days- God knows that she needs it WAY more than I do.
So, that being said, I'm off and won't blog for a week or so. Don't miss me too much!

Lovin the Rain

Wish it was snow, but the change in weather is definitely a welcome one in my book! It's a good "curl up in your jammies on the couch with a good episode of Little House on the Prairie" day. Ahhh....too bad I have a huge exam.
