Day of Mourning

So this morning I woke, went to class, came back, took a nap, then checked my email before going to my second class. Like usual I looked over to be sure my fish was watching my every move because he loves to be by me. Unfortunately I did not see what I thought I would, in fact, Valentino was floating vertically with its head up. I am still in the denial mode, but I expected his death would be soon because he never once ate since I got him =( So this is the formal obituary I predicted three weeks ago. Card os sympathy would be greatly appreciated: 700 Terrace Heights Box 432, Winona, MN 55987. This is going to be a huge change,but I am hoping to get a new Beta during my break!


RIP Valentino


Anyway, it has been quite some time since my last posting. This year is nothing like last year. I called my mom one day and said if last year were anything like this year, I don't know if I would have returned to school. Classes are obviously a lot more difficult, I have meetings galore, and a job. I rarely have time for fun, but I try to have personal time on the weekends.

Throughout the past few weeks I have had lots of tests, started teaching religious ed again, went to Hudson for a weekend and stopped to have lunch with Travis!

Last weekend Chels and I went to Target and meet up with some friends there and this is what we did:

Auntie M, Auntie M...all I need is the sparkly red slippers!


While I was off to see the wizard, Chelsea and Coco were off to a wiener roast and then we have some random chicken in the mix...oh the crazy things we do at Target!

Last weekend was also Family Weekend, so I had a concert on Saturday and did some fun things around campus like going to the soccer and baseball games!

Here are just some pictures from going out the past few weekends:

Chels and I before I redid her hair!


Chels, Erin, and I last Saturday...oh you got to love the faces!


My favorite person at SMU!

My mind is just so cluttered with information that I can't even think about anything more to say...maybe I should start blogging more often, but time is precious and if im not doing school work I am usual found in my comfy bed!

Hope to see you all in a week when I come home for October Break! I have been counting down the days for the past month!

Stay Warm!
