Holy Moly... its been a while (Here's the Update)

Hey all (she says as if she has thousands of followers...and in third person). Man, I haven't blessed you all with my wit in a little over a year.... How have you lived?
seriously though, I forgot how relaxing this is to write the random thoughts in your head... I hate my neighbors... see so therapeutic. One moment I wanted to storm up stairs and give them a piece of my mind and now I will settle with talking bad about them behind their backs :)
So for those of you who do not know. I am currently working on my doctorate for physical therapy... whoo hoo... uff da its gonna be a while :) I am loving it like a smoker loves to quit... its torture but you know its for the best and by the end it will be worth it. just finished my first clinical and it was amazing. By the end of my 2 mo. I had taken over 95% of my CI (clinical instructor- a PT)'s patients. I have never rubbed so many backs, necks, feet, legs, and groins in my life. Yes, you heard me right... groins- they get tight too. Anyways, through this experience I have found that.... old people love me... haha and it has made me seriously consider going into geriatric PT. Just a thought for now :)

I am back in MN and loving it! (for those of you who think MN sucks, well its obvious you've never truly experienced it-just saying). MN in the summertime is gorgeous... green EVERYWHERE! I love it! Its also really nice to be near home and get free groceries from my parents ;)

This past weekend I went to Utah because my old roomie and bestie just got married. It was a beautiful wedding with a beautiful bride. It was so great to see my UG buddies since, for most, it has been a year since I have seen them. I really miss hanging out with such a great group of people. It was so fun seeing how we all have gone our separate ways but when brought together it seemed like we were never apart. I love that :)

FYI- Nicole and I have decided that CO is going to be the place where we all end up living. It will be our own VU alumni community :) So start making your plans to move there.

Anyways, thats about all that I can think of to update my followers on but I hope you didn't miss me too much and I will try to write on here more often. Peace!

Laziness

lazy (adj.)

unwilling to work or use energy.

This is how I would define my spring break. I have done nothing for an entire week, and it has been AWESOME!!!! I was going to crank out my senior project this week and then I said screw it... this is my break! SO I am proud to declare that I HAVE DONE NOTHING AT ALL this week :) Writing this blog is the most I have done in 6 days. 

My days have consisted of waking up at 10:30 am, showering- never really doing my hair or make-up (which is totally liberating), eating a bowl of cereal while watching a tv show (Desperate Housewives- don't judge me), laying out by the pool listening to music and reading a book, renting red box movies and eating pizza at night, having my own dance party in my house (totally got caught by a neighbor while I was busting out my sweet moves in front of the window :) totally awk. but I got over it), organizing my itunes (a lot of my musica didn't have a listing for genre- now they all do), and I went on a bike ride. This week has been a blast. A whole week of I (introvert) time was the best way to spend my spring break. 

Hugh Jackman...Rarrr!

So this weekend I saw Australia and Hugh Jackman was in it and I must say... he is not bad looking. Plus this movie further proves my theory that men with accents are just so darn sexy. Now I have always thought Hugh Jackman was good looking but this movie has put him on a whole new level. There were multiple times when my roommate and I had  jaw dropping experiences. I highly recommend that people go see this movie, not only for the hottness of Hugh Jack man (rarrr), but it really was an amazing movie. I can't say that the movies I have seen lately have given me the WOW factor. But when I walked out of Australia I really was impressed by how well made it was. So do go see it, it is worth the price.  

I want to go to Australia.... ;)

Blessed

I have realized this week how stinking blessed I truly am. This realization came to me yesterday when the floor sons blessed the crap out of me. They bought Catherine and I season passes to D-land!!! They stinkin rock! I seriously almost cried when they told me. How do I deserve such kindness, I kept thinking to myself.  I then started to think about what else in my life are blessings and this is what I have come up with. 

I have the most amazing family in the world. My parent are super supportive of what I do, they treat me with respect, they help me when I need it (no questions asked, no judgement), they tell me everyday how much they love me, and they let me know that I am lovely. My brother and I have a great relationship, he is my best friend. AND he is marrying one of my closest friends which makes him so much cooler. My grandparents are so much more than I could ever ask for. They are great examples of what Godly followers should be. My grandpa Donnie was an amazing example of what it meant to have a servant's heart and to be humble and giving. I miss him very very much. My cousins all have such amazing character and I love each one more than they know. And I am super excited to have Janell as family soon. She has already made a great addition and I can wait to have her as a sister.

I am able to go to college in california! This experience has been the best I have ever had.

I have the most amazing friends. Jessica and Emily have been close to me since I was in 6th grade and I don't ever see me losing that. They are the funniest, craziest, most amazingest friends ever, and I can't wait to see them in december!

I have the greatest roomies. I seriously couldn't have picked anyone better to live with. We have so much fun in our apartment and we all get along. We make super cool music videos, we have great snuggle times, we know how to relax, we have blogging parties...its great fun!

We have wonderful floor sons...those guys seriously rock. They are always over and we love their company, they rock at flag football, and they are such a blessing! 

I am blessed in so much more and this blog would go on forever, but these are the ones that have blessed me most recently. I love you all, and thanks for being wonderful.

Things I am hating right now...

So I was lying on the floor in the family room of our apartment singing an obnoxious song about everything I was hating at that moment. Then I looked at the annoyed expressions on my roommates' faces and decided I should write them down then sing them out. So without further ado I bring you the things I hate (as of right now)

I hate school and all the classes that I have to attend, and the silly tests and papers that are choking the life out of me (especially the required classes that have nothing to do with my major) HATE!

I hate stupid journal reviews on medical jargon that I barely understand, and then I have to turn around and summarize what they were doing. And to top it off when people write sucky articles that don't provide enough information it makes my job 10 times harder. HATE!

I hate the stupid weather right now. I hate that it was so hot that I literally thought I would melt into a small puddle on the floor which brings me to my next point. I hate that my apartment doesn't have AC. So we have to leave our door open, which brings all the bugs in, which we have to kill, which I HATE!

I hate that Minnesota is starting fall and that stupid california doesn't even know what a true fall really is. The only thing that changes color here during the fall is the color of the smog...ew! I hate that I am not home in the nice crisp fall air, taking in the beautiful sight of trees in various different colors, and smelling the scent of camp fires and hot coco. HATE!

I hate that if I eat one little cookie and I gain 5 lbs. HATE!

I hate that its almost that time of the month, which is probably why I am so full of hate right now. Also, lets face it mother nature sucks big time! HATE!

I hate that my transcript from last summer has yet to make it into the hands of vanguard, even though it has been mailed 3 times. Also, the fact that these classes have yet been entered mess with registration, graduation, and applying for Grad schools. HATE!

I hate how the GREs are set up...its just stupid..enough said... HATE!

I hate that I have no fudgsicles in the house right now because I am craving them like a crazy straw (I know that doesn't make sense). HATE!

I hate that the Twins didn't make the play-offs... its just sad. Stinking White Sox. HATE!

I hate that I am not with my family right now, and that I am not home to help plan my bro's wedding with his fiance. HATE!

I hate that one rap song where the guy keeps singing over and over again, "hummama hummama hummama hummama" over and over and over and over and over again... it drives me loco!!! (Name that tune). HATE! Oh and I hate that when it come on the radio my "friends" blast it and refuse to change the station.  Mean words! HATE!

I hate that nicole shoves me to the ground, hits me on the head, and sits on me when I am being nothing but an angel to her all the time... I hate living in fear. HATE! ;)

I hate that I have to tell kara that I can see her crack every night! Just say no to crack Kar, just say no! HATE! ;)

I hate the price of plane tickets! HATE!

I hate that we have a remote for the garage and a separate remote for the gate. Why couldn't they just put them both on one unit! HATE!

I HATE SPIDERS!

I love diet coke with lime :) yum!

I hate white pasty legs (that's for you chris... :) )

I hate that boys are more dramatic then girls, but girls get the wrap for being emotional...what a load. HATE.

Well, I am slowing winding down on my hate rampage, I guess it was a mixture of stress, annoyance, coming off a sugar high from my bag of sour patch kids, and boredom. I would like to take this time to thank my roomies for not making the hate list (a lot), because you guys rock and you make my life suck less. Stay classy!

robots=danger

SO I just watched a movie that involved a robot gone wrong. When will we learn that we cannot give these robots too much power and intelligence? Have movies taught us nothing? These robots always end up coping an attitude, thinking they can do whatever they want, and take over all control. Usually, they turn against humans and try to kill us all. I think it is best illustrated by the flight of the conchords song Robots. Pretty much the song is about how robots have killed off the entire human race with poisonous gases because we worked them for unreasonable hours . If this doesn't scare you...I don't know what will.

So I guess I am just trying to tell you to watch your back, because you never know when a robot is going to turn on you....baaa!
