christmas break!

I feel like I'm 14 (or any age below like, 18) again and school has let out! Except for now I have to work a full-time job until school starts back... but no bother! For in 4 days I will be on a plane to Long Island the visit family and venture into the city with my sweetest boyfriend and brother (I know I wrote that last time). My tonsils are real big and hurting at my head has that "sick" feeling this morning. At least it held off until after finals, right?

I better get ready for work.

Thanksgiving.

I am SO incredibly thankful for tons of things.

I'm thankful for how God is working in my life, and even though I am not perfect, He blesses me and teaches me something everyday. I'm thankful for my wonderful family, no matter how crazy they are. I'm the most thankful for my wonderful boyfriend Nathan, who I appreciate more and more everyday and I am so blessed to have him to love. I'm thankful for my job and my coworkers (even if they drive me nuts sometimes), my grades in school, getting INTO nursing school and STAYING in, my upcoming trip with my family and my love to Long Island in December, my home that stays pretty messy because I'm busy/lazy, pinterest, the energy to handle a part-time job and full-time school and a full-time relationship, neighbors that are relatively quiet most of the time, seasonal coffees from Starbucks, all of my friends (who all seem to be getting married and having babies), and my health. I'm so thankful for EVERYTHING that I have, and I thank God for many things every night.

Nathan is one of those many "things". I have written on and on about him, but I just love him so much. I think about us often, about how we came to be and how there were a few times when I was sure that we wouldn't be (in the beginning). It really brings to light that "everything happens for a reason" thing. I waited for about 2 years for God to bless me with someone, and sure enough, he sent me Nate. It's been 9 months since we met and I am so happy! I feel like I've known him forever and ever. I'm comfortable and in love and he still makes me get butterflies in my belly. I am just the most thankful ever for him.


Tomorrow I get to have Thanksgiving with Nathan and his family and extended family and maybe ride a horse. I'm excited!

another "i should be studying but" post

I should be studying, but...

I don't feel like it. I am getting distracted with texts from Nathan, Pinterest (my poison), news about Steve Jobs' death (sad day), and looking at hair because it's been like 2 weeks since I've dyed it and that means that I need to dye it again because I'm weird. I made stuffed peppers the other night and they have been supplying me with lunch and dinner the past couple of days. I think it's time to make something new.

Also, I need to figure out what I'm going to be for halloween!
Also, I need to pass a test I have tomorrow that I should be studying for.
Also, my new job is good.
Also, sleep.
