some of my random thoughts outloud...

#1:
I just read an absolutely amazing book that I can't rave enough about. It was so amazing that I just need to give it a shout-out and promote it a bit! I know it's soooo 2003, but i just now read it! It's called Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller. Yes, you could call it a christian sort of book, but it's just his random thoughts about life...and honestly there are some life-changing thoughts in it. And it's hysterical....i laughed out loud multiple times...including in public at a starbucks! :-) So read it!
#2:
I just bought the special holiday starbucks frappe's...the ones they sell in the grocery. I put a picture so you don't have to think too hard! This is the original kind....but the holiday flavor is "dark peppermint mocha".....umm....SO GOOD. If you want to feel like sipping some rich chocolate. then definitely buy it and drink it. it's a party in your mouth. mom....you would LOVE these!

#3:
I love my Colts. No, they haven't done great these past two weeks, but I guess it's good they got these losses out of the way early....and i know we'll be okay! I just want to give a shout-out to my main man, Addai. seriously....he rocks. that is all. he might need to be my husband. did i just say that outloud?!
#4:
And now that i've remembered i can put ANY pictures on here instead of just pics of me doing weird things, i am very excited. these pictures i found on google have opened a whole new world to me! so just expect random pictures of things i like from now on! haha! i'm a loser. have a good week! love you all!

workin' girl

Well, I finally have some pictures from work! I worked on Halloween, so I have some pictures of myself dressed up as a nurse! okay bad joke!.....but I DID wear some special halloween scrubs with some happy pumpkins and ghosts on them! haha! I was hoping for something more dark....like bats or witches, or maybe something glow-in-the-dark, but I was too lazy to shop around....so that's all i could find. Anyways....these pictures also commemorate the last week of my preceptor-ship with Heather. That's right....as of this past week, I am on my own at work now. And by that, I mean that I have all my own patients and I no longer have Heather working directly with me. It is kinda sad....i got used to having her there to answer all my questions...and we had lots of fun! BUT...she taught me well, and the first two days by myself have gone pretty well! And honestly....all the people I work with are super nice and i can also go to them with any questions I have and they are always willing to help me out if i need anything. Sooooo here are some people i work with!

Me and Heather!
Me acting like I'm giving Felix a shot with a massive needle.....he doesn't look as amused as I am!
Fulton eating our Halloween cupcakes! We like to eat!
Me and Heather acting out what we'd like to be doing!

In other news, I ordered take-out chinese food tonight. To many of you, you might not think that is a big deal. But to others, you will realize that this is something you thought I would never say. haha.....so this is a shout-out to my former His Instrument-ers who for 2 years have very kindly tried to stay away from chinese food when we ate out most of the time. And sometimes when everyone else wanted it, I would go along with it because it wasn't awful....and I could just get some chicken and be fine for a meal. Well, those few times that we did eat it made me realize it was actually kinda good. And today when I woke up, there was a take-out menu sticking out of my front door---and it sounded SO GOOD. hahah....so there you have it. I ordered some chicken fried rice, egg rolls, and sweet 'n sour chicken! yummy! Apparently my taste buds have blossomed and changed a little:-) Be proud, my friends!

ALSO, i think i found a church! I don't want to get too excited just yet, but I have been visiting a church for the past 3 weeks, and I have enjoyed it SO MUCH. The church hunt had become quite discouraging, and so far this church seems like a great fit for me. I am going to visit some small groups over the next couple weeks and hopefully find one that i can get involved in and meet some people! Alright....well that's pretty much the latest with me! Love you all!
