So i have been gone for a while...the majority of you who read this know what has been going on with me and i am so grateful all of you have been around through these rough times. A couple weeks back, i lost a good friend of mine. For reasons no one really knows or understands, my friend Carey Johnson, decided to take his life. This whole experience was really hard for everyone who knew him and its finally becoming easier to deal. Carey will never be forgotten and will remain in my heart forever. I love you Carey.

After all of this happened, the other reasons i have been on a blog break is :

1. My computer was broken. Who knows what was wrong with it exactly but i had to have it reformatted and its up and running as good as new!
2. Tests, tests, tests, and more tests. I have had at least 2 tests if not more every week for the last three weeks in a row. I've just been studying my little heart out. It seems to be paying off pretty well, so we'll see how it keeps up.

But, i'm back up and running now! Nothing new has really been going on in my life these days. Just filling my time in between studying (which i'll have you know is putting a cramp in my style) with all the great tv shows that are back on for the fall! I think we are now successfully through two complete episodes of all the major favorites. In case you've missed something, all the shows are online these days so get caught up!! My personal favorites are: Ugly Betty (which i'm thinking would be an excellent halloween costume), Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (a def tear jerker), Prison Break of course, and Pushing Daisies. TGFT (thank god for tivo). Check 'em out for sure!

This school week is going to be short...i had a test today--imagine that--in Phonetics. I think it went pretty well; i should know by the end of the week how i scored. Tomorrow i only have one class, wahoo! So basically im done for the day at 10:50 am! As for Wednesday i only have two of my regular 3 classes and then i'm off the the airport to fly HOME for fall break!!! YIPEEEEEE! I can't wait! I will be home wednesday night sometime and am staying until Sunday afternoon. Somehow my week is already filled up and i havent even gotten home yet. Lunch dates, Chuck E. Cheese with Mariann and my little man, Murray to see the high school friends, time with the fam, playing with my puppies--Pumpkin, Holly, and Millie(!), church, a much needed haircut, and hopefully some shopping! I want to see as many people as possible so hit me up! Its going to be a great week-ender!

But, other than that, nothing is new. Life is pretty good. College is good. Friends are good. Miss you all!

xoxo and see you sooooooon!!
