Well, I just took my first online test of the semester and I think I did pretty well. I also had to put the work schedule together for the next couple of weeks. I'm just taking a quick study break. Tomorrow I have my first test for my Ethnic Studies class. Not uber excited about it, but I don't think it will be that hard. Other than tests, I'm still sore from my exercise classes. I think I pulled a muscle in my leg from aerobics on Monday. :(
So, Valentine's Day is Saturday and Tim won't tell my anything about what we're doing...I guess I don't mind surprises. :) He's only given me a time and to "dress warm." That's all I got. But I'm pretty stoked about this weekend. I'm hoping to see my uncle, Chirag, on Sunday as well. He lives in Denver and couldn't come last weekend because of the weather. We may all go out to lunch. I'm hoping his girlfriend can come too. I have a new friend from my aerobics class that brought her boyfriend to my church this past Sunday. They loved it and I'm excited they can enjoy it! They've been looking for a closer church than the one they've been going to. And I ran into an old friend of mine from last year that wants to start coming to my church too. That's be sweet. :)
Well, back to the books...and then bed. My eyes and brain hurt...

Holy cow, I'm so busy!
Hello all! I've been super busy, but I have a few minutes to update everyone. I've started my final semester and haven't really had a break since! I actually prefer things busy, but sometimes it gets a little ridiculous. (I REALLY want to finish the 4th Twilight book, but my homework is getting in the way.) :( Anywho, my new job is going well. I've been trained for mornings and evenings now. The only bummer is I usually work mornings and my shift starts at 6. BUT I'm done by 10 and then go to class, so that's not too bad. All the residents still like me, so that's good. :)
Classes are going well. I have aerobics and racquetball 3 days a week and I also go to the gym on those days. Tuesdays and Thursdays I have volleyball. Let's just say, I'm getting a good workout during the weekdays. :) Aerobics is kicking my butt, but I love the challenge. My teacher actually reminds me a lot of Emily Pollard...so I think she's cool...:) Racquetball is a lot of fun, but most of the time I'm exhausted from working and having class all day that I'm not focusing as much as I want to. Volleyball is a blast! I'm making a lot of new friends and enjoying my time. I also have sign language again and my professor is picking up the pace and sometimes it's hard to keep up, but it's one of my favorite classes ever. My senior seminar class is good. It'll be a lot of research, grant writing, and group work, but I've known my group members for the last 3 years or so, so I know we'll all be hard workers. :) The only class that's really tough to sit through is my ethnicity and the media class. It's not hard and the professor is great, it's just difficult listening to stories about or quotes from people that have been killed or ridiculed because of their ethnicity or sexual orientation or whatnot. I grew up in a pretty diverse environment, especially my high school, and I wouldn't have had it any other way. It's a great class, but it breaks my heart to know that there's so much hate still in the world.
Other than that, Tim and I have been together for 6 months today. :) We've started a new Bible study group with some AMAZING people at our church. It's a young married/couples group so it's definitely a different atmosphere then what I'm used to, but we're excited about it and are looking forward to learning from others and studying God's word. It's interesting because now Tim and I are hanging out with more couples and I got so used to doing things alone that it's a little different...no complaints here though...I've decided to only work with the kidos at church twice a month now. It's just too much for me to handle every weekend. I'm lacking in the sleep department and I need to take care of myself. So, I'll at least get to sleep-in two days a month. :)
Onto some sad news, Tim's twin brother, Chris, and his wife and baby moved to Delaware last week. It's been a little tough for the family and friends, but just keep us and Tim's family in your prayers. It's an amazing job opportunity for Chris and his wife gets to be a stay-at-home mom. :) Tim's parents and him and his brother have all lived in the same town for the past 27 years, so it was a big move. But everyone will be okay. :) I think that's it for now, though. :) I've got more homework to do.
PS-Kendi, I totally picked the same background as you when I was updating it today and loved it, but I didn't realize it was the one you picked...so mine's not the same...mine's cooler! :)
