What's Next?

If you've read my blog at all, you know that I am very close to being done with my Undergraduate degree. Next month I will officially be done with classes and next Fall I will finish off with an internship and seminar. 

For me, May is what I am reaching for. I just want to be done with classes! I wouldn't mind going to school if it didn't involve so much time and effort outside of the classroom. I'm a firm believer in leaving work at work and making the home your safe place, but that's not a reality when you are a student. Not that I don't feel safe at home. I mean, I live with a cop. But I never feel like I'm off the clock. 

I was talking to Johnathan the other day about how excited I am to finally be done with school. It is all I've ever known and I can't wait for the next step! Then I realize...I have no idea what that next step looks like!? I don't really have a plan or really a goal for after graduation. Plus I have all these people telling me I'm going to miss school terribly and blah blah. The grass is always greener, honey.

The point I guess I'm making is that for once this planner has no plan! 

Hey maybe I'll go on to Grad school! Wouldn't that be ironic.

P.S. Husband of Mine, are you sure I can't just be a stay-at-home dog mom? We can get one more pup. Then I'll be outnumbered and the challenge really begins! You can think about it.

At Least One Thing

It's rainy and gloomy here in Salisbury. It has me longing for a nap on the couch like nobody's business! Even though the day isn't the brightest, I find myself in good spirits. It may be that I love the occasional rainy day or the fact that I ate a Nutella sandwich for lunch. Either way, I'm one happy girl!

I find myself stressing a little less about school and focusing more on doing something that I love each day. 

Yesterday, I read for about 5 hours! Johnathan and I are reading American Sniper together, but John isn't the biggest fan of reading so it doesn't happen all that often. I usually have a rule that I don't read for pleasure during the semester because it tends to be really distracting and I lose focus. I decided to break that rule because I was going through serious withdrawal! 

I want to read so many books and since I am almost out of school I couldn't resist starting one! I'm reading, Someday, Someday, Maybe by Lauren Graham. Graham is one of my favorite actresses! She plays Lorelai in Gilmore Girls. A show where I've probably seen every episode multiple times. I had no idea she wrote a book when I stumbled across it at our Goodwill. So far I'm enjoying it. Very easy read and it would be a fun summer read on the beach! The only problem is it is difficult to decide to do homework instead of curl up with it on this rainy day!

Please Please Please! Send your recommendations my way! 

As for doing something I love, today I plan on taking a nap and hopefully watch some Friends! I should try to get my homework done then...

Thanks for reading =) Let me know what your favorite book is!

P.S. Johnathan, the doctor was super confused when she called for a Mrs. Woo and I stood up. I got my first, "you're not Chinese?!?". No ma'am I am not.

We Are So Mean

I love my pups! Josey, of course, is Johnathan's and my newest addition. Cota is my pup I grew up with. We all spend a good amount of time annoying each other. It's basically the basis of our relationship: the dogs annoy us and we annoy the dogs. It really is a lot of fun!

My sister sent me this video this past weekend.

It's priceless! He is so annoyed! 

I then sent this video back.

We are sooooooo mean! 

But don't you worry. These pups always get us back.

Josey, for example, pulls my pant legs when I'm trying to get dressed in the morning. She thinks it's the best game! There I am half asleep hopping on one leg trying to get my other leg back!

We really do love each other!

Hope you all have a great week!

P.S. Love, apparently I had a whole conversation with you last night at midnight that I have no memory of. This is why I don't take medicine! 

Today's Thoughts

1. I'm in my last semester of classes before my internship and it is sunny and warm. I'm doomed. My school work is at a minimum now. I just want to be outside all day long!

2. My favorite part about Spring is having all the windows open. We are finally getting some natural light and fresh air up in here!

3. I have a paper to write today. It's very questionable if it will get done and if it does get done, if I will sound like a first grader. Me no like English class.

4. Josey makes working out difficult sometimes. Today she pushed me off my mat and dropped her toy on my face. She must like my winter chub. I'm sorry but it must go!

5. I inherited my mom's way of cooking. Growing up she never made anything twice. This tactic is both fun and risky. Some days dinner is banging, some days dinner looks better in the trash.

The End.


P.S. Husband, I love that when we watch "Friends", we simultaneously clap during the theme song. You complete me!
