WHEW!! and the sad thing is there was more...

No Big Deal

I met Kyle Korver!! I know what you're thinking..."that sexy, young, Jazz player that looks like Ashton Kutcher??" and the answer is yes. Turns out Kyle's younger brother Kirk gets as much publicity as his brother because there was an article in a local newspaper about how the UMKC team SUU was scheduled to play one Saturday night had Kirk as a player. Anyways...I remembered this and as we were watching the girls game my friends and I began scoping out the other teams players and with a little investigation and questioning from some teammates we found him!!!

(not the best quality..picture of the actual picture off Mitchell's camera)

Sooo cute right?? looked just like his brother and so naturally we were ecstatic! Steph then mentions "Dude! what if Kyle came to watch his little brother play while he's playing in Utah??" "Nah, like he would come to SUU" little did we know a few moments later... a crowd starts building on the other side of the arena, look a little closer and sure enough KYLE KORVER IS IN THE HOUSE!! without thinking we grab the camera and take off running to meet him. I must admit in real life his little brother took the attractive award. Sorry Kyle, no offense.
Kirk is a lot younger so naturally farther away from the NBA, but still a pretty good ball player! at least he's got his looks going for him until he gets there : )
great times here in SUU's Centrum!!!

blah. blah. blah.

1.My brain HURTS! I never thought it was physically possible to have actual brain pain instead of just "headaches" but then I started nursing school. Today I blame my brain pain on the 2 tests I took today.

2.I get to go home tomorrow and I can't wait!! it's only been a month and a half since I've been home but my friends and I decided that it feels like so much longer when you're far away, so I'm not just being a home sick wuss, it's a legit college student thing : )

3. Channy and I have decided we're going to start telling people we are twins, why not right? Saves us having to explain to them that no we're close in age and just look alike.Think we could pull it off??
funny story about this idea...a couple weeks ago while I was in St. George we ate at Texas Roadhouse and told them it was our birthday and we were twins. They not only believed us but made us both jump on the saddle.


4. I've started exercising again, I tend to go through these spurts of physical fitness. okay lets' be honest these spurts are like months apart but still this week I've gotten back into it and realized how good it makes me feel(besides the whole being sore part)

5. The Saints won the Superbowl, and yes I was pissed with this result!! However I must say that with a certain play they made(if you watched it you should know what I'm talking about) they deserved it. In honor of the event my friends and I decided we would have an all girls party, and it was probably funner, louder, and more obnoxious than any co-ed party held that day.
Love ya Ladies!

6. I have many addictions and Grey's anatomy is one of them. I love that show! There's something about that show that gets me excited about being a nurse one day and just makes me wanna get out there and save some lives already!! haha. but seriously SOOOOO good, and it's on tonight. ABC 8 pm sharp- be there or be square.

7. I have AMAZING roommates! Brookie and Kobe(hehe) you guys are the best!



8. Apartments are being broken into, specifically ones within my ward boundaries. Great! just when I think I finally feel safe here in lil ol Cedar City....

9. Life is great! and despite my everyday stress levels, and insanely weird periods where I could just break down and cry from wanting to quit school so badly I am so happy! I love where I'm at right now and wouldn't change a thing.

Stewart...

Meet my new car pet Stewart-


Two Sundays ago I was enjoying a leisurely drive to St. George on my way to stay at Channy's apartment before clinicals the following Monday morning when I noticed something scamper across inside the hood of my car! Naturally I leaned in closer to get a better look when Stewart looked up and stared me in the eyes. I screamed of course, and immediately called Jacqui following in the car behind telling her that I needed to pull off because there was a mouse in my car(probably a lot more dramatic than that). Of course no one believed me until I popped my hood and sure enough there was Stewart a MOUSE. luckily enough we roused him out with my snow scraper but since Brook and Jacqui wouldn't let me kill his little guts right on the spot he disappeared somewhere behind my tire and hasn't been seen since! I am certain that he crawled right back up into his little home aka my engine and sneaks inside my car every once in a while to pick up on all the crumbs I leave behind and to stay warm in this cedar city weather and brushes me ankle on his way back home! (even though I secretly hope I ran him over)

I guess I had a wrong perception about pets, cause turns out not all pets are ones you ask for : )

Jiffy Lube

Attention fellow Cedar City residents:
Due to my latest discovery on my drive to Walmart, it has come to my attention that Jiffy Lube is in great need of business. Had they not had so much time on their hands they would not have been able to build this...



However, I must thank you jiffy lube for allowing me the opportunity to see the tallest snowman I have seen in quite a long time. Now if only you could send a man that tall my way I'd appreciate it : )

blah...blah...blah

-My laptop is broken, again! I'm not quite sure what happened this time but thankfully I have a great neighbor back home who's trying to fix it for me. just means less facebook time and more trips to the library for homework : )

-It is amazing what some college students will do for extra credit! just last week my class donated blood at our school for 20 points extra credit. can you say desperate?? I think so. However it was my first time and I was nervous, but I did just fine (minus exhaustion and nausea for the rest of the day, but at least I didn't pass out!) I even have this to prove I lost blood...


-I have never been more stressed out with school in my entire 4 year college career than I am this semester!

-Despite the constant stress I am so happy right now! I had what I like to call an epiphany last night where I realized just how good life is and how satisfied I am with where I'm at right now.

-Winter is not my favorite season and I am reminded of it every morning lately when I wake up to piles of snow and have to scrape snow or frost off my car windows. bring on texas! or at least a garage...

-My clinicals are all over this semester and my first one was this week at Behavioral Medicine in St George and holy cow what a humbling experience it was!! Things really truly could always be worse.

-Knowing that I can't go home on the weekends is rough and makes me really miss my family and friends in P-town.

-My niece is growing like a weed! I swear she'll be eating solid foods by the next time I see her : )

-It's the weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

operation private

For all of you that actually read this blog besides me(all 3 of you). I've decided I'm going to make the switch to private in about a week. So if you'd still like to be included in my joyous adventures and thoughts leave your e-mail : )

FYI...

"You're expected to know as much as physicians in a much shorter amount of time"
advice from my professor on the first day of school, following it with this...

"This is going to be your hardest most tough semester of nursing school. Good luck, you're going to need it"

And after finishing this first week of this semester, I've decided I'm going to need a lot more than luck on my side if I'm going to pass.

oh joy! Bring it on.

Cheers to '10
