Beneath the make-up and behind the smile, I'm just a girl who wishes for the world.

Time.

Time.... 
Time.... 
Time.... 


I feel like it's going by so slowly for me lately. Maybe because I keep telling myself to do things in the day, and then never actually accomplish them. I think I'm going to set myself a goal. April 1st, no fools, I'm going to start doing what I tell myself to do everything night before myself. 


I will work out tomorrow. I will do all the laundry instead of postponing it. I will go tanning. I will finish my work. 


I bunch of I wills that I WILL do the following day, and the following days to come, until I am completely satisfied with myself, and how I feel from the inside out. 


Here's to setting a goal, and accomplishing it.

Oh, happy day!

Woke up this morning to B-E-A-UTIFUL weather here in Oxford, Ohio! I was sooo happy, considering when my boyfriend and I came into town yesterday it was cold and rainy. It's not completely "warm" but it's definitely warming up, which is a nice breathe of fresh air!!! Hopefully it stays this way until Friday, since I'm staying up here for the remainder of my spring break. The boy went back home to the Fort for the rest of the week since he's got classes & work, thank goodness I don't!!!! Although I really don't like that my school and my boyfriends school, along with the majority of every other college has a spring break ahead of my own. That makes it quite hard to make plans with a big group of people, or even the boyfriend. 


Other than being extremely happy about the weather, I'm also happy about being able to look at the apartments here in Oxford. It was nice just to get a heads up on when we move down here. We plan on moving out of the Fort & into Oxford so I can attend Miami University and join their Masters program in Psychology. It's a really great program, so I'm pretty stoked about it. 


The apartments here are really great too. We looked at Oxford West. I'm a tad bit biased though. Okay a lot bit biased. My mother is the property manager for the apartments, so I knew that I'd be living here. But I still wanted to see all the different types since they have such a variety! They have anything from 4 bedroom apartments, two single bedroom townhouses. (4,3,2,1 bedroom apartments & 3,2,1 bedroom townhouses.) They just recently purchased the property and they are planning all kinds of reconstruction to things. When they get all finished it's going to be amazing apartments. It's mainly for the students of Miami U, but they have professors and regular families here too, which is really nice. They are even making some of the units here pet friendly!!! :) 


Well... thats really all I've got to chat about as of right now. Maybe later I'll talk more about this cute town. :)

I had plans for today...

Well, I'm sure I'm not the only one who does this. But I got up this morning, fully thinking that I would: 


Go to class. 
Work at the hospital. 
Tan after hospital. 
Work out. 


The only thing out of that list that actually happened was working at the hospital. After working about an hour over what I was supposed to, I was exhausted, and never went tanning or went to work out. I feel bad, but, at the same time, I did so much at the hospital today that I feel like I did a "mini" work out. I was walking ALL over the place. It was crazy. But I love it. 


So, since I'm completely exhausted, I'm going to go ahead and just completely relax in the apartment. I have 6 shows to watch today/tonight. One of them is already down, The Young & The Restless (Gotta love soap operas). And I'm watching The Talk as I type... so that leaves Dr. Oz, Teen Mom 2, V, and My Life As Lizz. Love those shows. Other than watching those shows, I have nothing else to do. I decided to bring home myself some Subway because the boy's out working until after 9pm. 


Ugh, there is one thing bothering me. My nose. The skin is all completely dried up and it's driving me crazy. I had been blowing my nose 24/7 yesterday and the day before, so it's been blown raw. And so now, I have to deal with this horrible looking skin on my nose... any ideas besides lotion & vasaline on how to get rid of it?

Drowning

I feel like I'm drowning in LAUNDRY! I hope I'm not the only one that feels that way occasionally. It's crazy. I've done 4 loads already, and then I have like 2 or possibly 3 more to do! I have a feeling I wait entirely too long to do laundry, which also means I probably have way to many closes. But who has enough clothes? Really? No one. 


At least, I don't think anyone can have too many clothes, or shoes for that matter. :)


Well, looks like I'm going to get back to laundry!

Lutheran Hospital, Horrible Weather & One Sick Pup

Well, I guess since I have some spare time I'll go ahead and update and clue in on the Lutheran Hospital stuff I keep mentioning. Right now I'm in a Psychology Field Experience class, and a requirement of that class is to have a 6 month, or 120 hours of Volunteer Experience, also known as an internship. So, I chose the children's section of the Lutheran Hospital. I haven't gotten to start anything yet because in order to start one has to have a drug screening, go through an orientation, and then also have two TB tests done, resulting in both negative responses. So... when I was about 3 years old I had a TB test done, and it was negative... thank goodness it counts cause I'm not the kind of person that likes shots. So, I only have to have 1 shot done, which was done last Friday, and I got it read today. Negative! Big surprise! lol So now, I just have to wait to hear back from the Children's Section of the hospital so I can start volunteering. :) 


Other then that, I definitely skipped all my classes today. I know, bad girl. But! The weather was absolutely horrible. I couldn't go over 25-30mph the whole time I was out on the roads. Including the highways. Therefore, instead of heading to finish my last 2 classes after going to the hospital, I just went straight home..... 
To a dog that is sick. Poor Jacob Marley. 


Left Leah home and took Jake to the vet today as well (yes, in this HORRID weather). Apparently he's got a throat infection, which causes dogs gag reflex's to spike, which explains the vomiting that has  been going on everyday for about a week now. The vet gave us 7 days worth of pills, 2 every 12 hours. Hopefully it helps, cause I feel so bad for the poor guy, even though he acts completely fine. 


So one sick dog, one well dog, two well humans, and a winter white storm happening outside. What more could I ask for on a Monday?
