You gotta love windows

As i sit at my clinical and pass time by totally breaking the rules and blogging I am just so glad that my lab has windows. All morning long it has been snowing and just being able to look out at the beutiful Rock river become completely covered in snow is amazing. I love when the river freezes over! Last year it took forever for the river to get cold, but this year it is like so frozen. I am really glad for the snow. I mean I am not super fond of cold weather, but the snow makes it much more fun and pretty to deal with. And who wouldn't take a snowy christmas over a dark-dead christmas? I hpe the snow last until christmas; just watch it totally get warm and all the snow leave...sad. So the college seach continues. I am still throwing around the idea of going to a christian school once I finish at NIU and study counceling, but who knows? well I must go for now! Big snow little snow, Little snow Big snow! Tina

Grumpy! Ha

So yesterday was a really weried day. I felt really out of place, I kept getting really annoyed and irritated for no reason. I mean no one did anything or was more unusual than normal, I was just blah...grumpy. I going to blam it all on NIU. I mean really what is up with forcing us to be on campus when everyone else is getting to experience the joy of vacation, AhHH NO! I don't think so. So this whole day started off weried when first thing, I begrudgingly, drag myself to campus and upon trying to enter Dusable find all the doors locked. So I had to walk all the freakin' way around the building to get in the back. Once I get inside it didn't help that the janitors were going crazy mad cleaning everything and all the desks, chairs and garbage made my path to the classroom more like a struggle through the depths of dispaire! My day didn't get any better with the joke of a DNA lab that we had to do. I mean really How complicated can it be to load the gel, flip a darn swtich and wait three, for serious, long hours for the DNA to come out, so that we can dye it and then say "my was a band or a smudge!" Come on our education has to be more than that! Of course nothing got better once I got to work. I mean what was I thinking wearing light lavendar scrub pants with a camo long sleeve shirt, didn't I know those don't go together. I might as well have worn plaid and strips together for all the harassing I got. I mean really people... I'm not trying to win a fashion contest here... I just wanted to work and go home to bed. But even that was a challenge, for on arriving home from work rach and becca were there and sense I never get to talk to them I really wanted to stay up...so I did until freaking 2:30 in the moring...ummmm yeah getting up at 5:00 am this morning was all sorts of fun! Ha Ha but surpizingly for as off balance was my day yesterday, today seems to be going pretty well, thankgoodness for caffine pills they make everything alot more fun! Ha Ha. Hey whatever I have to do to make it through to the end of the semester... Break wont be here soon enough! Tina

snow snow snow!

so a great gift, it snowed an amazing amount on my birthday! It was fun to see, not so much fun to drive in. then again today it is snow like a mad-man out there. I really don't know how I feel about that. Do I like the fun of how clean and new the snow makes everything or do I hate how it slows me down and I have to dirve like 45 miles an hour on 88? well I think in the long run the pretty snow and not the peskie snow win! I do love snow, it makes everything seem so wintery and christmasy! yeah! well my car half died today. Basically she was just irritated that I started her cold and didn't let her warm up, so when I stopped for gas she was like "that's it, now more!" But with some little encouragement from me, she realized it was for the best of both of us that she start and get me to work! I'm glad my car likes me and we can comunicate on such a good level! Ha Ha Tina
