Frankenstein?

So, this week in class we have been reading the book Frankenstein. This book is not at all what I thought it would be, and who would have known that the creator was Frankenstein, not the creature. I have really enjoyed reading it. I think it is kind of one of those books that sucks you in because you get wrapped up in the characters lives. As a psychology major, I have also enjoyed reading about the things Victor and the creature have gone through mentally.

Life is good

So, life has been exceptionally good lately. We are less than a month away from closing on our house. Our interest rate keeps going down, which is awesome. We bought a puppy from the pound but wont get it for another 6 days or so. They had to wait five days to start the surgury/ shot stuff in case his family came and found him. Today is day five and I have not gotten a call saying he was found so it looks like we are his family now. I am ready to spoil him. I already have toys, snacks, grooming stuff, a comfortable bed, and lots of love to give him.
School is going really good as well. I find myself finishing my assignments with time to spare and being able to contribute and participate more because I am not stressed out all the time because of my lack of time.
I can not lie, I am blessed and everything that is happening is evidence of that. I keep waiting for something to go wrong like I am going to jinks it or something, but then I realize blessings can not be jinksed. I am not even sure that is how you spell that.
I am really enjoying this English class. I have always loved poetry so it has been fun to get to read different things and really think about the meaning behind them. I am looking forward to reading the old classics like Frankenstein since I never read them growing up.
Anyways...it has been a good week and I will definitly keep you posted.

hmmm

so..day two on this little blogging adventure, good times. Well today I had my first experimental psychology class. Truth be told it was not as bad as I thought it would be. Today was mostly a review so we'll see what happens. I am actually pretty optimistic about being able to keep up.
I am sort of at a loss for words today, mostly because I'm just worn out. We have almost finalized the contract for the house and are in the beginnings of getting everything inspected and all of that. I'm getting more and more excited, but as I mentioned I am ready for it to be over.
Well I will run along now and go do some homework..until next time...

I'm not sure

So, this is day one of the journey of the spring semester. Unlike most I can't really tell the difference from yesturday. I've been in classes since a few days after the fall semester, so the holidays have gone by without a second thought almost. At this time next year I will be thanking myself when I am walking across the stage and get the eternal holiday, that is until graduate school at least.
To be honest it has been a stressful few months, I am growing up and while you're doing it it never seems fun. Me and Randy are getting ready to buy our first house...we placed an offer Saturday and are waiting to hear the results. I am anxious. There is a part of me that wants this whole process to be over and for us to be in our new home, but there is also a part of me that wants to stay in the little apartment we are in now just to avoid change and everything that comes with it. I am excited though, I get to get a puppy and I love puppies. I think I am just slightly overwhelmed and just ready to be in one place or the other so I can go back to the routine and structure I crave.
On any note despite the fact that I wanted to get so much more accomplished today I get to go to work. So until next time...
