To this day I still don't know what my dad does exactly. He works with oil machinary, I think.
That's for you Andrew. He works with machines. haha...

Brrrrr on the island
It's funny how I have always have a hard time writing papers, but when I'm blogging there's not much of a problem. Obviously, it's because this is by choice, and I pretty much just type exactly what's in my head. That's also another problem. Sometimes I talk like I'm FOB.
So I am still cranking out this paper that is due tomorrow at 4pm. That's in 23 hours and 45 mins...shoot I have lots of time! haha. I've been working on this all week, and the prof was right, should have started this earlier. For once I have not been able to complete a research paper in 5 days. I don't think it has taken me this long before. All the papers I have had to turn in earlier in the semester didn't take me this long. This paper isn't all that different from others ones. Oh well. It's the end of the semester. I don't regret taking the entire week of Thanksgiving and doing nothing. It was good for my mental health.
Texas weather is weird. I am freezing in my room. I wonder if it's colder outside or inside. I knew the weather would drop like 30 degrees from morning to night, but the weatherman was slightly off with his timing. It wasn't suppose to get cold until 2 or 3 today. I went to school in jeans and a thin long sleeves. I was burning up as I walked to class this morning and was even sweating a lil. During class you can see it get windy, but if you touched the window it wasn't cold yet. Come 11:30 as I was going home, it was FREEZING!!! It got cold and extremely windy and my toes didn't want to grasp onto my flip flops! I absolutely love cold weather. I much rather be cold than hot, but my body hates cold weather. I have poor circulation and low blood pressure. It's normal for me, but not normal to the normal people. My body cannot adjust to the cold weather. It just never warms up unless I have millions of layers on me. Two years ago when I was in NY, I would have on all these clothes and my puffer and still be cold until I walk inside. Now I don't want to do anything even more except go lie under my covers. Until then, I'll just have layers of clothes on and fuzzy slippers I got from An earlier this semester =)
Oh geez, I can smell the cigarette smoke from down the hall. I wonder how he gets away with smoking in his room. I guess I better get back to my paper. Sorry, random.
Before I forget, I got pooped on by those loud black birds that gather around my dorm in the evenings. At least I was coming back from the fieldhouse and not going to it. Things from nowhere like to land on me. It wasn't that much, but it made my night!
Now back to my occupation paper on mothering. I should frame this paper since I am putting so much time into it!

My thoughts exactly!

the fun is in having lots to do and not doing it."
--Mary Wilson Little
Thanks Jamie, you read all of our minds!
This is exactly how I feel in the last few days of the semester.
Good night world.

A "final" prayer
Disclaimer: This is not me and is not my mentality. I do totally believe in prayer and find that it doesn't hurt to give a shout out to the Lord before tests. But obviously you, yourself should have put in the work and effort of studying. Anywho, just something my friend sent to me today. Back to my paper I go!
The prayer said before finals:
Now I Lay Me
Down to Study,
I Pray the Lord I
Won't Go Nutty.
If I Should Fail to
Learn this Junk,
I Pray the Lord
I Will Not Flunk.
But If I Do,
Don't Pity Me at All,
Just Lay My Bones
In the Study Hall.
Tell My Prof
I Did My Best,
Then Pile My
Books upon My Chest
Now I Lay Me
Down to Rest,
And Pray I'll Pass
Tomorrow's Test.
If I Should Die Before I Wake,
That's One less Test I'll Have to Take.

Fix me please
My best work is almost always done from the hours of 10pm to 2 am. I get so much accomplished during that time. It's like my brain only functions during that small window of 4 hours! Someone please get it to work at other hours of the day...preferrably throughout the entire day, at decent hours, and in those 4 hour chunks with small breaks. I will gladly cook and bake you something if you can fix it. Sorry, that's all I have to offer, I'm poor. My study and homework life would be much better and it may even allow me have a social life of some sort too!
OK, good night to all!
OK, good night to all!

1 week and 3 days left...
Back on the island, well I've been here since 4:30pm. Serious time. I was really, really sad to come back. Usually I don't mind coming back or leaving Houston, but for some reason this time I was poopy. I even called Annette to tell her I didn't want to go back to Galveston. and NO it's not because I wanted to play more (maybe a lil'), but I didn't get to see a lot of people or hang out with friends very much. and I miss my family too...shhhh don't tell. Anywho, I'm over it. It was just a moment of me being all weird.
I only have 1 week of classes and 2 days of finals left of school! I am soo stinkin' excited and can't wait! Too bad the week before finals, I get another crazy week of work due. Here's a peek into what is left:
This week:
Tuesday, 28th
1. remainder of historical papers due
2. Hearthstone presentation (pretty much done)
Thursday, 30th
Anatomy presentation (pretty much done)
Friday, 1st
HUGE Occupational paper due! (This thing is worth 50% of my grade. Pretty much the grade I get on this paper is the grade I'll get in the class =/ )
Next week:
Tuesday, 5th
Anatomy final 9-11 am (I know nothing except where my gluts are)
Wednesday, 6th
Philosohpical & Historical final 1-3pm
Then I'm done...not bad huh! I think I am going to make it through my first semester of grad school. whoohooo! Back to work I go now!

Happy Thanksgiving!
I'll write more later because I am suppose to start schoolwork! Except I'll probably be watching football after lunch =D
I have just been summoned by my 6 yr old cousin to go downstairs and cook! It's a good think I like to cook. Though my sister said no to the cheesecake brownies =(
Happy Thanksgiving!

I *heart* OT
Look what we did in class today! Yes that is right, we played with yarn, crayons, markers, feathers, glue, buttons, and a bunch of other stuff =) It was nice to not have to worry or think about quizzes, papers, and tests for an hour. It was our last day in Occupational Influences on Living, so Elicia (professor) threw us a party! Of ocurse there was a lesson and meaning behind it all, afterall this is OT and everything we do has meaning! If you want to know more about meaning, let me know. haha. We still have a major occupational/research paper due (50% of my grade, yikes) in there after Thanksgiving, but I can't believe my first semester in grad school is almost over! Can't wait til winter break...until then here is a picture for you to enjoy!

I need head help?
All of yesterday afternoon and last night my internet was out. It seemed everyone connected to UTMB didn't have internet. and it made me so sad. Pathetic I know but it is my only connection to the world outside my dorm room. It really wouldn't be bad if I wasn't by myself because it is not like I need to be chatting or checking my mail all the time. I am not addicted to the internet! I was told I need to learn how to be by myself. I can be by myself, I just don't like to be for long periods of time. and I don't think this has anything to do with my being independent. I just like friends to be around. oh geez, at least I finished my outline!
*I spent some time on the land line instead. Good 'ol fashion communication around Galveston. Not even really any on the cell!

Spider Man 3
Got this link from a friend today.
Looks a bit better than the last one. I am not a huge fan of Spiderman 1 or 2. It is entertaining enough though, unlike Superman.

I need to stop talking about football
After Saturday night's lost, I was too sad to think about football. So all day Sunday, I didn't watch a single game nor did I get online to check what was going on (that was hard because I don't have ESPN in my room, so I have to get scores and such somewhere). Well, I broke down this morning and went to ESPN. We're not in the top 10 on anybody's poll, which is a given. =( It's been awhile since we haven't been in the top 10.
But I am glad to hear that Colt's x-rays were negative (get some major PT work going!). We have a bye next week, then it's a&m. I think we can get to a BCS bowl, if Colt comes back. We seem to fall apart without him.
Thank goodness last year, nothing happened to Vince!
*Sorry, this will be my last post about footbal, til next game of course ;D*
Rockets won last night...w00t!

Thank you for the reminder
My friend sent me this on Friday. Thanks for the encouragement and awesome timing =)
"And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us." Romans 5:3-5
"So as you are finishing up your first semester, remember to offer up your schooling to God and He will carry you through with more than enough strength."
Amen!
To those who read this, whether you are in school or working or doing whatever, I pass this along to you. Hopefully this reminds you to keep persevering and have joy in the Lord.

WOW.....
and that's not a good WOW either
ROYALLY PISSED...
Does UT know what is involved in a football game? I feel like they need to go back and learn what their position entails. I'm pretty disappointed with defense and offense right now (did we have any of those lines tonight? seriously). BAD BAD BAD CALL in the first series. Yes, we lost Colt, but um...if our team knew how to play football, it might not have been so bad. We were so totally, utterly, completely lost tonight. I can't really even blame Snead...he was pretty much the only new guy on the field. He's a noob, and in my opinion, he did better than the rest! I cannot get over this. I am still in denial. I really need to stop talking about this, too bad I can't...
It is really bad if you caused Annie to have tears in her eyes, and they weren't happy tears...yeah that is right, I had tears! Football makes me an emotional wreck! Thank goodness I don't have ESPN.
I still love my Horns; they just like to make me angry >:/
The way we played, we deserved to lose...uhgggg
I don't know if I can get over this...

Happy Happy "Joy" Joy!
I am sooo excited...soo sooo sooo sooo sooo VERY VERY excited! But I cannot say anything just yet, which is really hard for me because I am stinkin' HAPPY =) I want to burst!
*POP*
But I am stuck here in Galveston, trying to work on my presentation, but being me, I am having a hard time getting started. Probably because I am too excited to really be sitting here by myself. Plus it is gorgeous outside! arggg....
So I will procrasinate as always:
Last night SOTA (Student Occupational Therapy Assoc.) put on a fashion show for an Assisted Living Center. I did participate, but not a very good participant. When it was my turn to come walk the "catwalk" I pretty much just scurred across. Yeah...Leah can do a really good imitation of me. It went by pretty fast. I mean was there for not even an hour and that included waiting time. Afterwards we went to the Spot. It was fun to finally hang out with some of the 2nd year OTs. 1st and 2nd years don't really get to hang out. I'll have to get some pictures and post them somewhere and there are some video clips too. Don't know how to do those, but it's ok.
I just have to get through this week, and I'll be off all of next week for Thanksgiving!
Tuesday: Interview paper due
Thursday: Anatomy lab due
Friday: Historical presentation due (this is the biggie)
Can't leave right away after class Friday because I need to do research for my paper that is due a week after Thanksgiving. So I guess either Friday night or Saturday morning I will head back to Houston. I better save something to write later when I am procrasinating again. I think I will go out for a walk...yay!

Anatomy
Patricia, our professor, said to come to class skimpily/scantilly dress for tomorrow. We get to draw all over one another so there needs to be skin showing. I know nothing of the lower extremeties. Haven't studied them or even looked at them outside of class. Oh well, we'll see how it goes tomorrow! Maybe I'll just draw something and pretend I know what I am talking about...

Is this semester over yet?
hm...it has been awhile since I wrote something important. School has somewhat taken over life at the moment. BUT I am excited that I have an entire week of Thanksgiving off because we got our classes moved to the week before. Except that meant that my presenation/project is now due earlier and I lost the weekend to work on it. I guess that's a trade off...
So here is here is a glimpse of what I did last week. I had an anatomy test to study for and this is how I studied...I was drawing my origins and insertions of the forearm muscles on Brad. and I made a slight mistake while drawing. But didn't make that mistake on the test! The back side of his arm is all marked up too! What a tropper to let me mark all over with make up =)
This past weekend UT kicked some Cowboys booty!!! and Aggies put 12 men on their field...that made my night right there...that and beating Billy in cards.
and yesterday went to Target and found the best isle EVER!!! Everything was 75% off and it was ridiculous how Brad and I were acting...like 5 year olds. It was their Halloween candies. Oh my gosh, everything was like all under a dollar. $0.50 or $0.60!!! LOOK =D
So 1.5 more weeks til Thanksgiving. Then two more weeks and my first semester of grad school will be over. Too bad there is some paper or presentation due every week and of course, finals!
