Life has been so busy lately, but one of my patients at the hospital always tells me "busy hands are happy hands." I guess this is pretty true. There have been times when I have wanted a lazy day, but then I realize just how much time I wasted that I could have been finishing that eternity long of a paper for English. I find that since I have been spending more and more time at work and school, I have really missed being with my family. I never realized how much they mean to me and all that they do for me until I wasn't home very often. I catch myself sometimes at work talking about my crazy brother and all the things my mom and dad do for me. I also have a great extended family. I am so happy I got to spend all of Thanksgiving with them. We ran a 5k in the morning, ate some turkey, and then we just hung out for awhile. I am so glad we are a close family! :)
This semester is almost over. I cannot wait. There have been some classes that I have enjoyed, but with others, its time for a change. College is great! I have met so many new people and made so many new friends. Sometimes when it get stressful, I wish I could just work and earn money instead of spending it all on school. Then I remember how much I want to be a nurse and that I can't just drop out and let that go. I'm hoping next semester will be better in the Biology area. If there is one thing that may drive me insane it is Biology. It always helps to hear your patients tell you how good of a nurse you will be one day. It means a lot and it keeps that fire burning.
As for the social life, I have made some way fun friends. We went to every home football game for the University of Utah. GO UTES!! I enjoyed going to those games a lot. I find that it has been easier for me to make friends by just being me (no one wants a fake friend anyways). My weekends off sure do mean a lot more when you have some great friends to spend it with.
Hopefully you all had a great Thanksgiving and have happy holidays! Christmas is the happiest season of all. :)
