so it's been awhile, eh? i've moved into my dorm (which is SO much bigger than last year) and dad took pictures (which i thought would be on his blog, but they weren't the last time i checked), and i'm now in my second week of classes. i'm taking anatomy and physiology, chemical science, encountering the bible, intro to wellness, and the historical and conceptual basis for nursing. i still don't know if i'm in with my class's nursing students, but i'm taking the classes i need to stay on track.

i'm working as a babysitter for a family that lives about 8 minutes away. the oldest is maddie, who is in 6th grade and WAY too old for a babysitter, but she's good anyway. ben is in the middle, and he's in third grade and he loves to pick on sarah, who just started kindergarten. both ben and sarah are VERY into webkinz (even though i just learned what they are) and the disney channel. we also play with the dog, phebe (haha) and the cat, toby. it's a good job because it doesn't take up too much time (2-3 hours a day 3 days a week) and pays well, which will really help with my car payments (AHHHH!!!).

buble the amazing betta fish is still alive, though he's gotten lazy and lays on the bottom of the bowl most of the time.

other than that, things are pretty simple.


p.s. my mailing address at messiah is still the same for those who were wondering...or not...whatever :-)
