Guess Where I Am...

...if you guessed work, you'd be right! Ah, work...the only place where I actually have the time and motivation to blog anymore because there is next to nothing going on for 8 hours straight.
I'm not even going to make excuses about why I don't blog as much as I should nowadays, because that seems to always be the case!

One thing I've noticed lately is that I need to start taking pictures more often. I usually only remember my camera for the big events and nights out, which are definitely good memories but not always the things you wish you could revisit the most when looking back.
It might have something to do with the fact that I have an ancient camera. I think it might start to die soon. I'm trying to remember if it's the one I got for my 19th birthday, and I'm pretty sure it is, which is sad. I'm so outdated.
My favorite blogs are also those that have tons of pictures. I definitely get really lazy and distracted when it comes to tons of words on a screen. And anyway, it can get really boring to just plain read about someone's life...

Sooo....more pictures are in order. And if I was on my own computer right now, I'd post some of the new townhouse, which in my opinion is gorgeous! I love it. It's not 100% finished yet, but I'd say about 85%. Still a few improvements, but it has a lot of potential!

After living mostly by myself for the past three years, having a roommate again is new territory for me. The hardest thing for me has been losing that aspect of my life where I could basically do whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted in my own little world without having to let anyone know about it. But Brian and I are BFF, so we get along really well and I know we'll have a lot more good times in the future.

Plus I do get the place all to myself to relive my living-alone days when he's off at a race! :P

In other news, I had a big interview on Friday for a job that I am REALLY hoping to get!! Fingers crossed! I should find out later this week....

Anyway, off to go find something else to do until someone asks for blood products....

Blah.

Today started out not so bad and got increasingly stupid.

Had another exam this morning that went OK...not great, but not horrible. I think I'll end up with a B in this class. I've accepted it. The rest of the class was slightly painful with the 145 Powerpoint slides on diabetes that we had to get through, but overall it was less painful than it could have been. Having a lunch break in the middle really helps.

After class was over, I was so excited to be able to get home and finally take a nap! I've woken up at 5am for 6 out of the past 7 days...even on Memorial Day weekend I had to be up early for various reasons. I'm at the PACU this week for clinicals, which = no patients for me this week, which = no clinical paperwork, which made things even more amazing.
I happily went home, took out my contacts, got into my PJs and hopped onto the best couch in the world....

3 hours later....

Somehow I slept for 3 hours. Definitely wasn't expecting that. It automatically put me in a bad mood because I'd been hoping to sit outside and study for a while before working out, dinner, shower, and paperwork. But now my whole schedule was screwed up as it was already 5:30pm and cloudy outside.

I ate dinner and am somehow STILL doing paperwork...it's already 9pm and I don't think I'll be able to make it to the gym before it closes at 10. Extra lame.

Plus I'm in a bad mood overall....just a bad mood.

Anyway, this isn't very fun or entertaining. But that's how it goes tonight.
