i promised myself that i'd keep up my blog and i haven't been lately... i'll blame it on lack of sleep and lots of schoolwork : )
everything is going well here. i'm still *trying* to adjust to the weather. last week it was 40 degrees one day, high 60's, then torrential rain, and a freak snow storm. last night we had wind advisories and i was convinced that there was a tornado outside... it was SO LOUD!!! its pretty frigid today because of the windy weather but supposedly its spring because a red robin was spotted! warm weather COME QUICKLY!!!
enough about the weather. classes are pretty intense but there is no place i'd rather be. saturday night i shadowed a nurse in the emergency room from 7pm-12am. i can't describe the feeling of just how right it felt to be in there. i would have stayed an entire shift if i didn't have to get up in the morning : ) i loved everything about the ER. the adrenaline rush, the sense of impending chaos at any moment, people who truly are depending on you in that moment. definitely where i want to be!!
spring break starts friday and man i am READY!!! i am really really really looking forward to seeing my brother, james next week in omaha while visiting grandpa irv. i miss james so much and i'm really thankful that he's coming out. i need a little time away from school...
life is going good. i'm becoming involved with my church (cedar heights baptist) and i feel like they have become a family to me. i'm actually becoming a member on sunday! kind of crazy since i've only been here 3 months, but i feel that this is exactly where i need to be.
also, randomly i'm attempting to learn how to knit... so far, i'm a domestic failure. its on the verge of epic fail but not quite. i haven't completely given up yet despite ripping out every attempt thus far. i'll keep you updated : )
oh well that's a little glimpse of what is going on right now... i'm off to meet grandma and some of her friends for lunch : )
