Working on a paper at 11:30 pm, but listening to some Sarah McLachlan, so all is right with the world.

...and in the distance, the melodic tune to "Pomp and Circumstance" could be heard.
Do you know what I did today? I picked up an application to graduate. GRADUATE! Perhaps you don't feel the same excitement as I do. In fact, I am sure you don't, but for me, this is huge. I mean, so far I have been in school for 15.5 years of my life and that does not include preschool or the year and a half I have left to complete. But the thought of being done with school...FOREVER, blows my mind. So, wish me luck...because next spring, I will walk across that stage at Arco Arena and prove to the CSU system that by taking an overload of classes each semester, you can obtain a Bachelor's Degree in Child Development in just 4 years!

My Job Rocks!
It's true! If you would kindly look at the bio to your right, you will notice that I get paid to hold babies. That's right. My Monday and Wednesday mornings are spent in the infant room at the ASI Children's Center on campus. I do admit that getting up at 6:00 am is not what I would call fun. However, as soon as I walk in that room and see all those bright eyed babies smiling up at me, I remember that it is all worth it. And you know what the best part is? They love you unconditionally! Granted, I am no replacement for mom, but I am the next best thing and there is definitly something to be said for that. Now, I know what you are all thinking...spit-up, crying, germs and stinky diapers. I have had my fair share of all of the above. But all it takes is that one sweet, innocent, pint sized person to lift their arms up to me with a smile across their pudgy little face, and I forget about all that other stuff. And if they won't stop crying, spit-up on my clean shirt...for the third time and wiped their boogers all over my shoulder it is especially nice to be able to say, "I don't have to take you home with me tonight!"

...testing, testing...is this thing on?
I would like to welcome you all to my very own website. To be honest, I was never really interested in "web journaling," but Grant convinced me that all the cool kids were doing it, so I decided to have a go. I am a very busy girl, but I will try my best to update you on various events occuring in my life. My only hope is that you find these many events as interesting, hilarious, exciting or as noteworthy as I do. Enjoy!
