Catch Up Time

Hey Ladies!!!

I'm so sorry that I haven't been on here in a while.  But I have had a lot of homework lately and papers galore.  But I decided to now take a break from homework and decided that I wanted to talk to the lovely ladies :).  I am on the downward slope of my first semester now.  Midterms were last week, but due to being a nursing major, I didn't have to take any midterms (WAHOO!!!!)

But any who, I hope school is going well for everyone!  Are those applications in yet??!!  I have been working very close with the admissions team lately and I hope to see most of you at the next admissions event!!!

I may also be a host during the Fall Preview Overnight.  So maybe one of you lucky girls will be my little prospie as we call you :) haha.  well ladies i'm sorry this one is so short but I must get back to my English paper.

I promise I will write more later this week. 

Enjoy your last two days of school :)


Toodles :)

The Stresses of being a college freshman!

Hey girls! Sorry I haven't been able to blog in a while!! This week was a very stressful week for me here at Notre Dame!! I had two multiple chapter tests this week and papers due this week.  Although this week was very stressful, I made it though the week and here I am. 

Being a nursing major requires a lot of study time for the sciences and IDS classes.  This week was a learning experience for as I was taking my first tests as a college student and my first big papers were due this past week.  Writing a six page paper on caring, o boy let me tell you, not as easy as you think.  Anatomy and Chemistry were my two subjects i had tests in this week and believe me I studied my little butt of to do well on these tests.  In order for me to stay in my program I have to maintain a  "B" average in my classes and to keep my scholarships I have to maintain a 3.0 gpa.  Let me tell you that may seem easy to read, but once you get into the classes it's not as easy as you think.  Memorizing all of the bones in the body including the skill (pictured below) is NOT easy!!



Anywho, this upcoming week is exciting for me!! I am officially a STAR (a student rep for the admissions team) and I will now be involved in the campus activities including the open house this Saturday!!  Hope to see some of you wonderful ladies here on campus this weekend!!

And yes on weekends you can find things to do around Baltimore with your girlfriends!! Samantha, Laura (my roommate) and I headed out last weekend for a girls night out with some other girls from our floor!!! 

For now I am going to enjoy the rest of the weekend here at home after three weeks.  I brought my friend Samantha home.  We enjoyed an Italian meal tonight, it was quite yummy!!

Enjoy the rest of the weekend ladies and I will blog again in the middle of the week!!!

Toodles!!!
