Sorry for the lapse in updates :) First I was real busy then my computer crashed and I had to wait to get it fixed. But on the good side I get it fixed for free at school. And I didn't lose anything.

Nothing too interesting has happened... still trying to get my car fixed. Rich has been calling the junk yard and they keep giving him the runaround. Everytime he calls up there they have a new question for him, and appearently the suspension (I think that's what Rich said haha :)) on my car is unusual so they don't believe him when he answers their questions. We went up there one day to pick up the part and it was the wrong one, so now we have to bring it back. Rich is now thinking that they probably won't have the right part, so I don't know where we're gonna go from there. But we had to rotate my tires because the front ones were bald again.

I house-sat for Aunt Linda and Andi while they were on a cruise... fun fun. That was pretty boring cause I didn't even have my computer to entertain me.

And now I'm just trying to plan for my vacation. Rich and I are driving out to North Carolina and I'm so excited!! We decided to camp since it'll be a lot cheaper. Only $20 a night with electric hookups and everything. We may end up staying in a hotel one night to go to the beach, cause the state park in near Raligh, and over 2 hours from the beach. And we absolutely have to go to the beach! Rich has never seen the ocean. The only thing that kind of sucks is I ended up having to work the entire week before because two other people from work will be on vacation, so I'll have to get everything together next week I guess. Also the office is only open until 7pm, and it takes 13 hours to get there according to google... so I think we're going to have to drive overnight... But I'm still stoked!

So I'm FINALLY done!!! The semester really went by pretty quickly... but it was still stressful.


So now I just need to figure out where I'm moving at the end of the summer.


But I've ran into a cool... addictive site :)




I tried to advertise for Rachel :) but it didn't fit so well

Summer is Finally Here!!!

So it's finally getting warm again, and I LOVE being outside when I actually get the chance. The orther day I took a backroad back to the house which runs right by the creek so I got some cool pics from there. I also went to Tower Grove Park today with my roommate and we just took a walk. It was so peaceful! I think I want to get a bike.






Last night Rich and I went to the Card vs. Cubs game and it was awesome! The 8th row in the section we were in was really the front row!! We were sitting right behind the right-fielder all night. Speaking of which... his name is priceless, people were screaming at him the whole night. And the vendors were awesome, they were all making fun of cubs fans, lol.


"Cold beer for Cards fans; warm beer for Cubs fans!"


It was hilarious! Surprisingly there was only 1 fight that we saw break out. But it was a great game, and we won the series! No homers though :(. But we plan on going to several games this year so there'll be more for that :)











One more final to go and I'm done with 4th year!!!! So excited, this year was a little stressful...and I'm so ready for summer.

3 Finals Down.... 2 to Go

So finals actually haven't been too bad... but I'm about done with studying! :) I am so ready for summer break, but I'm sad because this will be my last summer break ever! Next year as soon as we're done with 2nd semester we start our rotations, I think we get like two weeks off. Then after that I'll be graduating, and will have to get a real job... lol. That's weird to think about. I've been in school for 17 straight years!

But Rich and I are planning a vacation together, hopefully to North Carolina. Rich has never been to the beach, and I think we're gonna camp at a state park so we can stay longer, since we're both broke college students! :) I can't wait until I can spend some more time planning it, I haven't had a chance to look at too much with finals and stuff.

Also I need to start looking for my new living arrangements. Andi and I are moving in together, but we have no idea yet where we're going to be living. But I think we have pretty much everything we need as far as furniture and such goes.

Nothing too exciting has happened recently, except Rich's dad won tickets to the Cards vs. Cubs game tomorrow from work!!! And he gave them to us! 8th row in the outfield terrace... how awesome is that?!

Also Chuck and Lorraine were in town this weekend, so everybody came out to our house today! It's starting to become a little more regular, which is nice. The North's are always entertaining! And I finally got to see Heather's baby, Adriana (not sure on the sp?). She's adorable!

Well I guess it's time for bed so I can get up and study some more tomorrow.... fun fun!
