so many wonderful things

First item of business: the surgeon "released" me to full activity this past Friday.  I've already gone crazy and splashed it up at Seven Peaks.  I know I need to calm it right down.

On a separate note, I can't believe Spring is over and Summer has begun!  Spring was so much fun!  
Parties and games and WARM WEATHER. 

Men's Soccer games with friends!!


Thank goodness Stats will never be a part of my life ever again. Those cheerios are important to point out because they were the only thing I ate that day thanks to food poisoning.  I pulled through but my stats grade is still questionable.


Supporting my amazing roommates in the intramural tourney.  Of course, I would have played if I had not had my leg sliced open the week the season started.  Next semester I'm going to be out there tearin up the field though. Be ready.




I saved the best for last.  I became an aunt!!  This pretty lady is my most favorite niece in the entire world!!  I just want to hold her an snuggle her all. the. time.  It will be my worst day when July 25 rolls around and she and her wonderful parents move to Virginia for FOUR YEARS.  Good thing they invented things like the world wide web and skype so that we can be friends forever even 2,000 miles away.

excuses


A list of lame and not so lame reasons for not blogging:

1. I had my leg sliced open by a doctor 3 weeks ago yesterday.  For over a year I have been experiencing some pretty intense Achilles Tendon pain, and after visiting multiple physical therapists and doctors without any improvement, I took the plunge and had a gastrocnemius recession surgery.  I would post a link or a video about what it is, but I can't because I tried and I felt sick.  You want to tell me about your surgery or watch open heart surgery together, I'm all for it, but you want me to research what surgery I had or watch a video of someone getting their leg sliced open, I'm out.

2. Because of said surgery I took all of my finals in two days... before they were even open.  On the last day of class I took three finals and on the first reading day I took two.  Don't worry, I'm alive, so I obviously survived.  I'm not gonna lie though, it was rough.  I am proud to report, however, I cried only once in public. The following are pictures of partying in the library with the beautiful Jill.



You know I need two computers to do my homework.



Studying is never complete without snacks and music.



Jill the Hottie.





1.5 hours BEFORE we left.

3. I got a new job!!  I am the letter of recommendation specialist for BYU's preprofessional advisement center.  If you are applying to medical/dental/podiatry school and you have letters of recommendation sent to our office, you know I'll be reading them, processing them, and then sending them to wherever you would like across the country or world.

4. Spring term has begun.  I am taking Statistics and Public Speaking.

5. The weather is beautiful outside.

gag me

Okay, I know I said I was going to try to share some of my favorite things about BYU, well today I experienced something I had only ever heard of- a couple in class cuddling.  CUDDLING.  IN CLASS.  A dedicated building.  The lecture wasn't even that good.  I could be more open minded about something such as this occurring in prep for eternal marriage or something, but we were learning about Family Tree and it's ancestors (new.familysearch, familysearch, PAF).  NOT ROMANTIC.

Now for something I like about BYU.  When I went to sign up for my spring and summer term classes, there were SO MANY spots open!  Yay!

zombie time



I registered for classes for next semester last night this morning at 12AM-12:13AM.  I went to sleep then  woke up thinking it would take literally 2 minutes to quickly add my classes.  Dumb BYU servers went SO SLOW.  I literally feel like a zombie today-here physically, but still asleep mentally.

On a separate note, my foot has been hurting REAL BAD the past few days.  I'm not even kidding or over exaggerating when I say that it hurts worse than when I had a fracture in my other foot-Probably because it's either a stress fracture or tendonitis.  So today whilst everyone else was wearing cute wintery boots, I was wearing my ugly medical boot limping across campus.  Please don't get too jealous.
