GC Friends

Blast from the past. I live on campus in group houseing for my senior year. East Hall was one of my college highlights. 6 girls upstairs and 6 guys in the basement...equals adventure and good times.

This past Saturday my friend Alyssa stopped by to visit! (She lived in East Hall as well.) We had lunch and great conversations. She is now a nurse in Chicago. Anyways I love catching up with old friends so I thought I would share my joy.


I probably wont post for a while. I leave tomorrow for Thailand. Pray for safe travels and good health!

catch-up

So here it goes...

I passed my two grad classes this past semester. Only three clinicals to go and a lot more stress... Woot! Didn't do to shabby on the grade portion too but who looks at that? I just hope to remember all the information for clinicals and the real world. It is impossible to know everything but being in the medical profession you are expected to. How is that fair?

I am done with summer pre-session! I waited my whole grad school for that class. We learned suturing and casting! I think suturing will be come my new favorite past time. It is an art, like crossstich. Ha. The cast saw is loud and frightening but now I am at least experienced before I cut yours off some day. (Some day I will learn how to up load pictures from my phone and show you my sweet hot pink leg cast I recieved that day!)


My brother is now married. CRAZY! Amy is now my new sister and we are blessed to have her join our family. The wedding was beautiful. I will attempt to upload pictures!



































Liam Jeremy is the second newest addition to the family (before Amy). Kellie and Jeremy had a beautiful baby boy on May 20th. I love his name and I love him!




I got to visit Lindsay and Adam in Kansas City after the craziness of finals. I was honored to meet the newest addition to their family...Katelyn Rae....so precious! I had to include her little Zoolander pose!


I purchased a new cell phone but it is so much more than that! It is a Palm Treo and I am super excited about it! If only I new how to use it. This will come with practice I am sure and I plan to read the entire manual.
Wednesday I leave for my trip of a life time. I am going to Thailand for a vacation...more on that another day!
