Catch up of Christmas and other such greatness...

SOOO....I have failed in blogging my life. Yes, I know, it is a horrible tragedy. But, on the upside, you all get pictures now. First of all, over Christmas I and my family went to visit all my greatest cousins, Aunt, and Uncle and all those little-uns that seem to be attached. WHO I LOVE AND ADORE!! They are all getting so big and cute and developing great personalities...kudos to the cuz's for making this happen. Anyway...here they are: we have Sydney, Mackenzie, Brennan, and Micah...woot woot for being such awesome youngins!!






























And of course there was my BIRTHDAY!! I believe that deserves another woot woot....especially to my friends that came up/down/sideways to spend it with me. I love you guys! My mom in her awesomeness also went with us to PF Changs for one of the nights, bought me my first cosmopolitan *winks to mommy*. We found out that pictures taken while the camera is upside down are actually better! I'm dead serious, try it...something about the flash not hitting all the grooves of your features or something (thank you Samara for enlightening us) I will post those before and after pictures later due to my computer being a butt-monkey.

Then there was the HAIRCUT!! That's right...12 inches gone....all gone. Although going to a great cause, i do miss it, and it's ease to fix in the morning. But alas, showering everyday sometimes twice is great fun....*smiles sarcastically*

I'm not dead, I promise...

Life has been crazy these past few weeks. If I thought taking only 14 hours this semester would decrease my stress and workload, I was wrong. I have basically been able to go to class, work, and sleep...(although that last one not so much as the other two) Had a wierd case of insomnia the past few weeks coupled with a bad sinus infection and cold for the past week. Finally caught up on some sleep a few days ago and am now almost back to normal.
I also, as some of you know, got a new roomie (due to the fact that my old one is in Chile!!) She is nice, sorority-like (not necessarily in a bad way), and a freshman. All in all, we're good as roomie's, although neither one of us is here that often.
NEW UPDATE: I am looking at the final apartment on our search next weekend!! It is between this one and one other that Laura and I will be living in next year...wish us luck on a good choice. By the way, if I haven't mentioned Laura, she is one of my best friends down here...currently she is in DC on an internship, so it's up to me to make the final decision on the living.....AHHH! Although I will have another friend and her boyfriend with me when looking at them, just to make sure I stay unbiased...lol
I'll post pictures of the one we pick later.

MCAT studying is going hard, still haven't decided if I actually want to be a doctor yet, though....but I will be deciding soon.

I've also been volunteering at the boys and girls club here in Bloomington, makes me soo happy to play and tutor the kids....I swear they think of new non-words everyday to describe things....for instance: mathradical...
sooo not a word but it works for math that's cool....
Anyway, I'll post again soon I promise, with pictures from Christmas time and all *smiles*

Sooo...it's been a crazy week...

It's been three weeks in school now, and craziness has ensued. And tomorrow i'll fill you guys in on why that is....loves all
