Flowing Through Mountains

I’ve been in a funk all day.

Things have only been getting half done…which is irritating…but it’s all I can manage…

Hopefully tomorrow is a better day.

(At least there was an evening of Louie and rum&coke)

Well, I didn’t do as good as I’d like on my test.  Not bad…but not good either.
Passible.

Today was a rather exhausting day.  Between getting up early to study, working a double, and staying up late, I am mentally and physically exhausted.

Tomorrow is filled with chores and class…yay.

Today is a study day from hell.  I sorta, kinda, maybe procrastinated until the very last moment to study for my exam…and now I’m regretting it.  I guess we’ll see what happens tomorrow.

On a better note though, Will and I went out to dinner with Jake and Debra at a yummy chinese resturaunt.  They served oranges that looked like lemons with their fortune cookies…interesting.

Afternoon sunshine, on a cool, relaxing day.  Not much happened today.

What a great weekend. :)

I finally got to meet Will’s best friend, Shaileen and her amazing family.  We drove up to Waxhaw, NC on Saturday afternoon, and drove back tonight.

They are an amazing family, I must say.  They were so welcoming, and I immediately felt like I was among friends.  Her kids are so adorible too.

I’m glad to be home, but even happier to of had the weekend we had.

Happy halloween. 

Tomorrow Will and I are headed to North Carolina to visit his friend Shaileen and family.  I’m pretty excited.

I love people.  Really. 

I love the moments when someone I don’t even know, reaches out and speaks to me.  It pulls me out of myself and allows me to be connected to another human being on a level that is easy to forget.

We all have personal struggles, but with the inspirational help of others, we can get through anything.  This was reenforced to me today.

I may be “young”, but those older than me need inspiration and motivation as well.  And if I can provide that to someone…I will do it any chance I can.  Thank you.

Just another “beautiful fall colors” photograph.  I saw this tree in the parking lot of our apartment on my way to work today.  The colors just struck me, and I had to try and capture it.

Unfortunatley, the camera doesn’t do the actual tree justice, but I still like it.

Hmm…so, in the past few days I’ve quit JCP portrait studio, been working a lot at Cue, and dog sitting with Will. 

I really like working at Cue.  Everyone’s very nice, and the food tastes good too.

Unfortunatley though, JCP didn’t work out.  I’m a bit bummed about that.  I was really hoping to learn a lot about portrait photography working there, but…that wasn’t the case.  In my head, I thought I’d be working with a professional photographer and “learn the trade”.  Instead, I was given a couple days of training and put on the floor by myself. 

Which would be ok, if I had the time to study photography on my own and feel more confidant in the camera room.  But, I don’t.  Not with nursing school.  So, I decided to focus on school.  And now I have 13 chapters to read/study before Tuesday.

If you need me, I’ll be in my med/surg book…
