The best mother ever!




Yep, the best mother ever award goes to my mother martha. She came into LA for the weekend and took me shopping, out to dinner, and we even went and saw the broadway show Wicked. I have never seen Wicked before, and it was great! We decided to go last minute and somehow got 8th row tickets in the middle of the theater. It might even be my new favorite! All in all, a nice break and a fun weekend!

pure luck

I am not sure how I could have possibly done this, and I really don't want to brag, but I am absolutely shocked at my test scores. For my pharmacology test I decided I would be satisfied with a C, and happy with a B, so imagine my complete shock when it came back with a 96%. I am pretty sure my jaw dropped. I checked my name twice, and almost gave it back to make sure it had been graded correctly. Somehow, I got the high. I am thanking my lucky stars because it is never going to happen again! Than later today I got my physiology test back today, and somehow scored a 92%. umm, can I say pure luck?!

P.S. I would love to post other exciting subjects, but unfortunately I have nothing but anesthesiology to talk about... so sorry team!

The end to a hard week



Finally, an end to a long and hard week! I had my first two graduate school tests, got a nasty cold and lost my voice, and broke it off with Jon. Good times! The first test was on physiology and the second in pharmacology. I have never studied so much on a continous basis. My day starts at 530 am so I can beat traffic and study, go to class, come home, and of course study. When I am not studying, I think about how I should be studying, and unfortunately it only gets worse from here! But at least this week is done and over with and now I have a whole weekend to study!

Out of the Cave!

Horray!! We are out of the cave (1st apartment). That apartment sucked. It was dark and dreary and in this big cement complex with crazy neighbors shouting and their baby crying. The whole place was sterile, and might I mention the mold we found growing on the walls? Oh, and the best part we could have kept living there for just a mere $2600/month. wow, what a steal... I lived out of a box for a month, had no bed, and my bedroom didn't even have a light. So I was very excited when sunny and I moved to this new place in Redondo Beach. I don't know if the pics show, but there are windows everywhere with a ton of natural light and it has a nice breeze that flows throughout the apartment. It is in a great neighborhood with a baseball field across the street, some hot firefighters in the station across the street, and we can just leave our front door open. plus is is only $1500/month. Needless to say, everyone, including Jack, loves the new place!





my other bedroom. We spend a lot of time at these desks...


My bedroom with an actual real bed! No more airmattress for me!

L.A. County Fair - Cotton Candy

Gotta Love LA!

LA County Fair

These are the amazing people I have decided to surround myself with. I am already ditzy enough, so I hope it doesn't rub off on me!
