I went to cadaver class this week; and sad to say, we lost Matt. He didn't show up and so now we are down to just 3 students in my class. :(
My class is so small that they are considering shutting it down. They currently are trying to get people to transfer from other labs to mine; allowing large sized labs to downsize. I hope it works! I really can't attend any other lab offered.
I hope everything works out ok! :)

The long weekend
This past weekend was great!
I had classes on Friday from 9am to 5 pm, but was able to hang out with Chance between my first and second class. After my classes were over, I went home and cleaned up for a girls' night out with Jess. I only stayed out until like 10:30, but it was fun!
On Saturday I went to work at 7am, was finished at 1pm, and spent a lot of the afternoon at my Nana's house; spending time with my grandparents and mom.
Sunday, the day of rest, was spent cleaning non stop around my house. By late afternoon I had the whole upstairs spotless and was working on my room. Around 4pm my dad came down and asked what I wanted for dinner. I came up with a great idea; I wanted to make a homemade pizza! So, we went to the store and bought all of the ingredients. We went home and made the masterpiece of a pizza. It was huge! We were only able to eat about 1/3 of it!
I spent all of Monday with my Mom. We started out the morning by going and getting pedis from a great little nail place at 36th and Washington BLVD. After, we went to the mall to get my dad's glasses repaired. We stopped by Merl Norman's why we were there to try and get some makeup; but they were REALLY busy, so we left.
I went back home and packed up my car with Scooby and the things I would need to keep him busy at my Nana's house; then Scooby and I were off to Nana's. Why I was there, RJ and I took Scooby for a walk to the duck pond. He was just thrilled. He had never seen ducks before and was very curious as to what they were. We put a muzzle on him; just in case he got close to one of them. He chased them for quite a while, trying to sniff them; however, he never got close enough to them. When we got back, Scooby helped my granddaddy put the christmas statues (from the front yard) away. He walked back and forth with my Granddaddy; he kept trying to carry the cord like a leash, in his mouth. Most of his day was spent in the vast and gigantic backyard, running the north fence line with our neighbor dog, Max the Akita. Max and Scooby look a lot alike; seeings how both of them are 1/2 german shepherd; but Max has the coloring and the tail of an Akita and scooby's body is built and has fur like a Collie. Their statures are the same and their heads are identicle. They had so much fun together!
The big debate, that I hear everywhere I go today, seems to be about our new President. I don't know why EVERYONE is judging him by the color of his skin.
Whatever happened to, "a person should not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character?"?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Hump Day...
Well, Wednesday is almost over. Now I'm on the down hill slide to the weekend!!! I can't waite. I know I've only been back at school for 3 days; but these longer days are killing me!!! I cannot wait until friday at 5 because that's when my last class ends for the week!!!
Today I looked up that new dinosaur thing that is comming to the Energy Solutions Arena next week. It's that "walking with Dinosaurs" exhibit. I want to go see it soooo bad; however, the tickets for the lower bowl seating is like $75 per person plus a $7.99 "convenience fee" per person. Come on!!! I know it took a $20 million budget, but that is a ridiculous price for tickets. Some Utah families have close to 100 kids these days. Families like that would have no way to afford to take their family to this show!!! I don't agree with the prices. It is supposed to be an educational family event! I think they are wrong to ask for that amount of money!
I am not looking forward to starting again next week!!!

Back to real life...
Christmas vacation was very exciting. The 11 days went by really fast; but, I had a lot of fun.
My Christmas day started at midnight between the 24th and 25th. I went to work with my dad at Free port Center to help keep him awake. While I was there, I finished my mom's Christmas present. It turned out really cute. Around 8am, I left Free port and went to my Nana's house. I spent most of the day there, celebrating Christmas with my Nana, Granddaddy, Mom, and my brother. Later in the evening, my brother came home to my Dad's house with me to celebrate with my dad.
When we got home, my dad was on the phone with my Grandma Bright. Apparently she was without power and heat for 14 hours that day. As soon as he hung up the phone, we were headed over to dig out their generator and warm up the house. It was about 8:30 before we could begin to feel heat. I felt so bad for their neighborhood. Most of the people who live around my grandparents are elderly and have no family. That means around 75 of the ruffly 100 people in that neighborhood were elderly, with no family, and had no power or heat for 14 HOURS on CHRISTMAS!!!! What a bummer!!! My brother stayed the night at my dad's house for Christmas. It went really well and I think my dad and brother both had a really great time.
Right after Christmas I became really sick. One day, I slept for 16 hours straight! I ended up at the doctors on Dec. 31. I was poked with so many times because they kept not getting enough blood or kept missing my veins. I was miserable. Later that night, my best friend MyKale and her bf Brandon came to visit me and my dad!- YAY!!! Brandon and my dad talked for quite a while about car stuff while Kale and I chatted about other things. They didn't stay until midnight; but it was the highlight of my night.
Now I'm back at work and school. It is weird to have such a tight schedule. I went from having almost 2 weeks with nothing to do; to having no time at all to get anything done. I already have 6 papers to write by Friday and I have no clue what my main topic or thesis is going to be on any of them.
I guess that is how life goes though. People have to rush to get everything done, just so they can make a decent living in this world.
