I NEED YOUR HELP (READ BOTTOM OF BLOG)

sorry stacy, you're always the one to complain to me. you're right...my blog is "way out of date" especially now because i'm BACK in school again :) i'm excited!! the first 5 weeks i'll be in a psychiatric unit, the next 5 weeks i'll be working in pediatrics at the new awesome Dell Children's Hospital, and the last 5 weeks i'll be working in OB (labor and delivery)!!! so overall, yes, i'm excited. i always am nervous at the beginning of the semester too. we have to check off all these skills and take math tests, etc, before we can start our clinicals....so we HAVE to pass. i'm working really hard to practice :)

i did have fun this past weekend...my last weekend of freedom before this semsester. i went to FLUGTAG!!! it was so fun! it is where all these people make crazy creations and try to fly off of a 30 foot stage but inevitably they always fall right into the water. there were some really cool ones and there was a group of girls who go to the university of minnesota and it made me think of my lovely sisters up there :) i'll attach a link so you can check some of them out...it was a blast...a bazillion degrees outside...but really fun :)

i also dyed my hair last week! i really want to cut it but i know i can't because of the wedding soooo i'm just dying it :) i am trying to get it lighter but my hair is naturally black/brown so it is difficult. i dyed it a dark ash blonde but it only lightened my hair MAYBE a shade or two. so we're going to dye it medium ash blonde tonight and see if i can get my hair to a light brownish color....i'll let you know the outcome :)

OKAY I NEED YOUR HELP! i already recruited my sisters, but jeff and i are putting together the play list for the dance at our wedding and we want some help. give me some suggestions! we might not choose your picks, but if we do...you'll know it's because of you :)

okay, peace out friends, i need to pick out a bridesmaid dress.

booodittyboooo

so, i'm busy. whats new....

1.) i got a vacuum for my birthday :) my mom can't believe how domestic i'm getting. (not really...) but i'm going to do a public service announcment for this vacuum. two days before getting it, i had vacuumed my apartment with jeff's vacuum. then i got it...the DYSON animal vacuum. i vacuumed my little 510 square foot apartment and it filled up 1/2 of the bin with hair, dust, and other odds and ends. jeff, my mom, bob and i were staring in amazment. we couldn't believe how well it worked...unbelievable...a true miracle :) i like it a lot. i know vaccuum all the time...jeff already took it to his house to see how much he could suck up with it.....and let me tell you....a lot.

2.) we set a wedding date! this happened awhile ago, but i don't think everyone knows. we'll probably send out save the date cards...but just fyi it is April 12, 2008. what a great day huh? it is going to be here in austin at this beautiful old victorian house right in the heart of downtown. i think it'll be fun...so get ready to pack your bags and come party with us!!

3.) i have my final this thursday then i'm officially done with the semester!!! summer school has been really crazy, but i am sooo thankful that i got accepted into the summer session. i had no life, but wow...it's already over! next semester i will be working in OB, pediatrics, and psych units...what a fun mix huh?? pregnant moms, kids, and crazies

4.) it FINALLY stopped raining. i'm even nervous to say this because i might jinx it or something. but this has been a wet summer. there has been so much flooding, and rain.....EVERY DAY. i mean it...EVERY DAY....until...two days ago. it has been a dry and HOT two days, but its been so nice. its like in minnesota its so cold for so long some people get seasonal depression...thats what it was like this summer...rainy depression...its like living in seattle or something.

5.) jeff and i just booked our flights to go to new mexico to visit my parents! bob just got a new car...i think the toyota rav4, so i get his old car cause mine is crapping out. i am leaving my camry behind and i am soon to be the proud owner of a crysler seabring coupe!! whoo whoo whoo (yeah heidi!!!). i'm excited to visit for another big reason too....TO VISIT CHARLEY!!! bob flew back with my cat because i'm moving on friday and my new place can't have pets :( . by the way extended family...one of my parent's cats recently passed away...vada RIP. she was stacy's cat. stacy took it hard....she actually took the day off when my mom told her they were putting her down :( awwwww. but now they get charley...for 8 months until i get married!!! yeahhh i'm so excited to marry jeff, he's so cool.

well, there is sort of a random update. i'm back to studying now (actually looking for bridesmaid dresses....) i suck at studying, especially this late in the semester.
