Goal: Stick with it this time.

So I have not posted a new blog in ages. My life is seemingly boring. However, it isn't! Surprising. I am in my last year of nursing school in Casper, have a bunch of great friends out here that I love spending time with, and a wonderful fiance back in OR whom I can't wait to marry. Oh and I would be a horrible person if I didn't mention my future nephew who is supposedly making his premier appearance around Dec. 13th! With all of the exciting things happening in my life I feel the need to document them so I can hopefully look back one day and read about the little things I may have forgotten. More tomorrow I promise!

2nd Semester starts TOMORROW!

It is 2008! Can't quite believe it. I have been living in Casper for 5 months and time has managed to fly by. That is up until now, I get to go back home for Ben's wedding and a brief visit on Thursday and time seems to be standing still. I am hoping that with the new semester starting tomorrow the last few days before we leave will start moving faster. I am sure that it will seeing as how I will again have deadlines! (HOMEWORK!)
For Christmas I received a digital camera from CJ's parents so I am hoping to start getting pics up soon.
I am working at Poplar Living Center. While it is challenging I am still enjoying it for the most part. As in any job there are bad days. It is just that my bad days consist of people passing out mid-transfer and then their BP's plummeting to nothing. Not to discredit the stress everyone else feels while working it is just that in most fields of the workforce you are not holding someone else's life in your hand. Even with these stressful situations I am dreaming of the days when I get to do it full-time as a nurse. I am happy to say I am well on my way! I get to apply for the actual nursing program this month! In the meantime I am continuing working toward my goal by taking classes toward my BSN! I have found, with the exception of the math classes I HAVE to take, most of my classes keep me interested. I love feeling smart for once in my life!
I can't wait to go home!! 4 days!!
Till next time!

I am in WY!

So, I made it! I am in Wyoming and looking for a job! My ever-wonderful mom helped me settle in to my place. I love it. It is a little weird to be here by myself. I can't just go see my friends or family and without having a job I have found myself in a state of boredom. I have only been alone for a day and a half. I think I got used to being busy. On the other hand I have all of my laundry done, I am cooking a beef stew (I never would have done this in OR...too many people to do it for me!) and my apartment is still clean. I won't be surprised if people are taking bets to see how long it will last. Anyway once I have the pics I took with my mom's camera I will upload them. Miss you all!

First Post Getting Ready

So I am getting ready to go and I am a little afraid! I am super tired so this is short. I leave for Wyoming in something like three weeks.
