First Day of School

Here it goes all over again...yesterday was my first day of medical school!
It was tiring & exciting all at once. We will see what today holds. It's Tuesday!!

But what is most amazing about my new adventure into medical school is all of the love & support I've received from my family & friends! My dad drove all the way to CS to look after me & help me setup. My guy would have gladly walked home from CS while carrying me over his shoulder. My mom & lil sis were a mess with tears (as was I). Norma even put together the most thoughtful going-away gift for me. Super sweet! ...And while I will miss them all, I know that it's because of their love & support that I can do this!

On that note, a few fun links wouldn't hurt to keep me entertained in this maroon town...

Mary Lynn Rajskub's Kiss & Tell ...someday that's what I want

Happy Puppy ...hilarious leapings!

And from Norma's gift book of "14,000 things to be happy about", here are a few:

dachshunds
shivering helping to warm you
the sudden squeal of hidden pigs
balance beams
penicillin
big red barns

July Trey

Hello!
So July 1st was pretty hard, everything about the impending start of medical school and my departure from everyone i love dearly kinda caught up with me ...July 2nd was okay...and yesterday, July 3rd I was back to normal with good days... but I can tell that July is going to be the hardest month to get through when it comes to leaving my family & my guy behind.

But in other news, my guy was sweet enough to go all the way across town with me to Amy's Ice Cream!! It's this fabulously funky ice cream place local to only Austin, Houston & SA...I love the combos!! I had a small YOUR MOM! lol Mexican Vanilla & Belgian Chocolate with Reese's peanut butter cups and raspberries ooooooooo!






After gobbling down my ice cream & rushing through a photo booth together, we went to watch The Proposal for free! & It was soo cute, I loved it <3 pretty funny...btw we noticed while its set in Alaska, the filming was mainly done in Massachusetts lol



I have also become the proud owner of these lovelies!! I am so excited to get them in the mail allll the way from Canada


I have started reading Jane Austen's "Emma" with the hope of finishing it before medical school starts in 3/4 weeks... I am sure by December I will be so tired of reading that I won't want to read even a street sign ever again lol
And lastly, I dropped my camera just before the fireworks show & it won't let me turn the lens on :( very sad!

Times Wastes Too Fast

Today I realized that my life may not go as I planned but maybe then it will be an even greater adventure :D
My New Motto:

"Just learn about yourself, live life and see what happens"

Also, check this out Times Wastes Too Fast




I hope that my journey in this life leads me to live richly and to never stop learning or loving or being joyous!
