Doing it all again
So it has definitely been crazy around here! I have been trying to keep myself busy doing stuff and so far I have been. I have been sick for a couple of days and poor Alex had to do a 3am Walgreen's run for me because the other night I broke out in hives so bad that I made myself bleed and bruise! Yikes! Anyways, last weekend I climbed the "M" and almost got bitten by a rattlesnake which wasn't really my plan for that but whatever. If I feel better this weekend I am going to try and do the m again, avoiding the snakes. Classes are going great. Alex is somehow managing all the reading he has to do. The new Dan Brown book came out "The Lost Symbol" and it is so good! I haven't had much time to read it because I have been so exhausted from being sick. Work is still going great. My supervisor is awesome! He is compassionate to way my health has been. It is nice being a custodian, no joke, because you get time to yourself which gives you time to think. It also wears you out so you sleep good! Besides that, not much going on except that Alex and I finally got to go out again and our choice for food was... oh yeah, good old fashion Cracker Barrel! So so so good! I have my first quiz on Wednesday and Alex had his first on Thursday. I decided that I am going to change my degree to health and human sciences so that maybe I can be a nutritionist or a dietitian. This means that I am going to probably take anatomy next semester while I am still part time and don't have a work load! Pray for me!

I Got a Job!!
So today was so good. I had class as usual and then this really lame meeting called beer goggles which was pointless because I learned it all in public school! Anyways, as I was heading over to the meeting, I got a call saying that i was accepted for the job as a night custodian. I go in tomorrow to fill out the paperwork and I actually start tomorrow so I am so glad about that. I am still hoping to maybe possibly get a second job though since I do have so much time. But that is the good news of the day. The manager seems super nice but I meet him tomorrow as well as the guy that I will be working with. Yeah it isn't my dream job but it is a job and I couldn't be happier. After filling out 18 applications I am ready to work! I will putting in between 12 and 20 hours a week which works out great since I only have a couple of classes. Anyways, Alex is still waiting to hear back from his applications, he hasn't had any luck yet but I know that he will soon. I finally got my first homework assignment which I have four days to read forty pages... wow I am stressed! LOL. Other than that, my health has been absolutely horrible. Yesterday my entire leg was numb the entire day. My RA is super nice though and is always checking on me. I love that Alex has a house though because he can take care of me now. I am still loving the school though. It feels so good to be in the real world now. I am learning more than I ever have being on my own now. I absolutely love everything. Yeah I am broke and owe money but you know what, I couldn't be happier because I am doing what I want to do and not what everyone else wants me to do. I love my life the way it is right now. I love my "family" because they have been so supporting, I love my boyfriend because he treats me how all girls should be treated and takes such good care of me, and I love where I am at. Each day I am growing more and more.

Labor Day Weekend
Labor day weekend was a nice weekend of rast and relaxation... for me at least. Alex and I went back up to Gap Friday after class and stop up in 4 Mile to see his parents who were camping. It was absolutely gorgeous up there, so serene. Saturday, Alex worked and went hunting later on with his co-worker. They saw nothing but bears, a cinnamon and a black bear, who scared all the deer away and scared me! Luckily, the bears were more scared of them. Sunday was the same thing though, more hunting and working. My weekend consisted of resting since my stomach has been acting up. Monday Alex's parents came back, we packed our things and headed back to the Gap. Very eventful I know! But now we are back at school. My stomach has been getting worse daily. I have never had symptoms like I recently have been having such as my leg going numb from pain. I am working on seeing a doctor here on campus though because my GI doctor wants me to see a female doctor. Pray that goes well... I am too young to be violated! Anyways... I have a ever so wonderful presentation tonight about sex which is... well welcome to secular school! Haha. Tomorrow I have a beer goggles presentation which is about what beer can do to you... I have already been to public school though so I don't feel the need to go to these even though they are required. All it is going to be about is what you can witness in high school! Pointless! Aside from that, school is going well, I am eager to start full time though so I have something to do!

A day of nothing
So today was pretty boring. Alex had a couple of classes today, while I had nothing to do. My life has revolved around reading. I am currently reading the Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown and honestly I don't understand why it is so controversial because it is fiction and clearly states that. I encourage everyone to read it as well as Angel's and Demon's. These are the kind of books I wish we read in High school because then I would actually have wanted to read them. Alex and I are anticipating the new Dan Brown book "The Lost Symbol" to come out because it is part of the series of Robert Langdon (The main character on Angel's and Demon's as well as The Da Vinci Code). Anyways, Alex and I are heading back home this weekend and he is going to work and Monday, since there is no school, we is going bow hunting... so I won't see him! haha. But he is going to be calling for Brandon, his co-worker, since he did not get his bow tags in time. I am excited that he finally gets to hunt though, although it will be all he talks about! This weekend I will just be resting since the past couple of night have been bad for me... my stomach has been acting up again. On a positive note, I got health insurance starting the end of the month which is good because it is moving forward with what I need to do. Let me tell you, I am so thankful for Alex's family at this point in time because they have been helping me out so much with everything. It is hard when you leave with nothing, but it has been good because I am learning. It is really been teaching me a lot more about life and now I know finally what independence feels like for once and yeah at first it was hard, but I am figuring it out one step at a time.

Rest and relaxation... Not many college students get to say that!
Today for me consisted of relaxing and enjoying school life. I had my first meeting today for school and it was my dorm floor meeting which as you can already guess, was boring! But there I FINALLY met someone who is just two doors down and seems super nice, eager to have some girl friends... like me! I have some pictures of my dorm that are up. Its small but it's home. I love my two classes that I have and am so eager to get the ball rolling on full time status.... I need a life! It is so hard to sit and do nothing all day. I am trying so hard to get a job but no replys yet. I think I will start putting apps in with the school. Anyways, I think that I finally decided on a major... I think I am going to stick with pre-law and possibly so health and human studies to be a nutritionist. Who knew that picking a degree would be so hard! But then again it is what I will be doing my whole life. Why can't they have a degree for being a stay at home mom! My health has been doing okay. I have had a couple spurts of pain over the past couple weeks. Alex's place is really coming along. They finally got a dinning room table so it is looking more and more like a bachelor pad every day! My address here at the school that you can get a hold of me by is: 153 Knowles Hall, Missoula, MT. 59801.
