School has surprisingly been flowing well for the past few weeks. I go to work, I go to class, I go to sleep, I do it again. It is repetitive and mundane some days but I do have the fortunate luck to have classes with good friends. Thank God. Sitting through 2 and a half hours of lecture without a little poking fun at our professor (or crazy classmates sometimes) would be unbearable. My other saving grace?! Starbucks. Bless them and the PSL, tehe. Now, don't think I am there every night blowing away money but some nights coffee is dinner and on those nights, I have good coffee and not the $1 cup.
What is killing me so far this semester though, is not work or my classes--It's not being able to workout AT ALL during the week. It makes you feel so gross. I love to workout. My fiance and I enjoy going to the gym together and I can never go anymore. I have to force myself over the weekend now to go do it (and on your only 2 days off, that end up being filled with homework eventually-it is hard to do). I am very much looking forward to May (only a month before my wedding!) when I will be graduated and have my nights free again because there will be some serious work to be done!
Speaking of wedding...I am so glad that I got most every detail taken care of over the Summer when things were less stressful. People would tell me that I had so much time and to not worry about getting anything done a year in advance but I am happy that I listened to myself instead of others because if I had to worry about the details of the wedding right now there is no way I could be working full time and going to school full time. The only thing we do not have yet is a DJ, so if any of you guys out there have a suggestion please let me know!
"Things are about to get Real", next week Jessica says. That is when our first exams start. I got the luck of the draw and have 2 back-to-back exams on Tuesday, right after work, wow.
Enough about school.
I do have a few doses of laughter.
1st: Chad and I missed Miley's now infamous performance at the VMAs but, last weekend when we were out with some friends of ours, they had it DVR'd and we just had to see. Oh my sweet Lord. That Teddy Bear leotard, and her Gwen Stefani, No Doubt, circa 1998 hairdo kept me laughing the whole time. Thank you Miley. Sorry Robin Thicke. Go JT.
2nd: Short and sweet. I went through the whole day yesterday thinking it was Tuesday, Nicole told me as I was getting ready to leave work that it was in fact Wednesday. How did I forget?!
"Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike-What day is it? It's Hump Day-WHOOP WHOOP"
NASCAR. I went to my first NASCAR race this past weekend. Oh my. NASCAR fans are serious. I personally do not know the driving skills of Gordon from Dale Jr. but oh did I learn. I will say one thing, I saw more American Pride at a NASCAR race than I have ever seen anywhere else in my life. I didn't understand the whole experience of staying there for 2 days before the race and sleeping in your truck but once I had those earphones on I was into it. Totally surprised!
Saw Darius Rucker at Innsbrook last week, he does not disappoint!
Had an awesome time at JMU
In remembrance of yesterday, may our country always be united with one another and never forget what we have risen from. I love America and what we stand for.
Everyone have a great weekend.
Enjoy the laughter,
xo
