Sheesh, I let my last post hang on a depressed note for way too long! No worries though, I am alive and well. You think I would learn after 21.89 years of my life I would know that things are never as bad as they seem. To combat my depressed post, I am dedicating this blog to happiness and funniness!
Happiness:
65 degree weather to welcome February in. That little hog must have seen his shadow!
Taking 20 seconds off my 3k PR in just 2 races
My Brother and Sister (technically Nate's sister and her husband) from Utah came and visited! I love family.
Pretending to tickle a teammate and having her laugh as though I were actually tickling her (Andrea) :)
Realizing I have 3 tests, 2 papers, 8 quizzes, and 3 homework assignments all within one week (hello 20 credits) and instead of becoming depressed (okay, so I did cry. BUT just a tiny bit..) I listened to "Under Pressure" on repeat and dubbed it as my new theme song. Followed by listening to my man Yann and concentrating and getting work done like a BA.
Realizing my babies (my CTR 6 class that I teach at church) needed a fun day so we all sat in a circle and colored, ate pretzels, and chatted.
And LOOOOOTS of big, wet, juicy kisses from this guy (grossed out yet, Jasmyn ;) ):
This was a sneak attack as we were about to take a picture when we went to the beach in November :)
Funniness:
Realizing this was too true. It's a good thing Nate loves me:
"Sup, Nugget!"
Being able to make fun of Nate because this picture says it all too well:
Last thing I can think of:
While taking to one of my little primary kids that I teach, he told me that he just got a new puppy. When I asked what her name was he grinned (he has the cutest little grin) and in an almost mischievous voice replied, "Cheekies" and started to giggle. haha, oh, I love little kids.
I hope after reading this post you have at least something to smile about. Typing up all these things definitely made me realize how great life really is. :)
Well, back to the 'study grind'. 1 test, 2 quizzes, and 1/2 a paper down...still lots to go! haha.
