On my mind

My Phase II Telebears was earlier this morning. I signed up for one class, IB 132. This brings my total to 13 units, and I won't add any more. Expect to see more of me next semester!

I slept in my bed at home this past weekend for the first time since Labor Day. The entire weekend. My parents took care of me. I am thankful for them.

It's been a speedy recovery from sickness thus far, and I don't feel too terrible today. But as much as it pains me, I called in sick for SNAP. I'd be really upset if I got E sick. Close contact and warm water is just asking for it.

I am going to Anaheim with my family for Thanksgiving this year. My cousins and grandparents are there. It'll be fun, and I'm looking forward to a change in scenery (okay, also Biscuit and 85 Bakery. Hi D and D). I am not looking forward to the 12 hour drive in holiday traffic.

I am currently compiling a list of all the books I've ever read in my life. It's not that fun putting it together, and it involves unearthing dusty, dusty places.

I'm sad I have to miss the EKG training at the hospital tomorrow because I can't miss Anatomy lab. What this means is that I will continue saying "Sorry, I'm not trained" when nurses ask me to do EKGs on patients in the ED. Sometimes they shoot me a frustrated glare, sometimes I get cussed out, sometimes they say, "Do it anyway," sometimes they're nice about it. I got all four many, many times last Friday.

I finally found a peanut butter I don't like! Trader Joe's Chunky 100% All Natural, salted. It is goopy and pourable. It ends up in my ziploc bag. I think adhering to bread is close to #1 on my list, especially when you eat on the go every single day.

I'm excited to bake something this week.

It's been a challenge figuring out which scriptures to study in small group. I keep hoping for something God-ordained to jump out at me, something that will apply to every single member in our small group, something that answers all of their questions, addresses all of their needs. I know that isn't the right way to approach it, and that many if not most passages can do this. I just need to trust more that whatever we study will be good.

Lately I've been marveling at how little of this semester we have left. Cherish it!
