blackberries

Picked up some lovely blackberries at the grocery store today. Other than that, it's back to studying. Everything will be done at 10am Wednesday morning, can't believe it!

hello

Contrary to popular belief, I am alive and well. One more week.

nine days into december

It's been a while y'all. I've been away from a lot of internet cesspools of bad energy lately and I've been... happier. Honestly. No Tumblr, no Facebook, no conflict. I've been able to kick my workout routine into an actual routine now, regardless of my impending finals. I'm getting studying done. I'm feeling better about myself. I think I see a change coming up, but I can't put my finger on it just yet.

I haven't taken pictures lately other than with my phone, but that's better than nothing right?

Our clinical professor bought us Starbucks after bailing on us one week. Good enough for me!

 Something I stumbled upon in the hospital cafeteria while heating up a real lunch, and an appropriate reaction brought to you by Ben.

Fish tacos with Marylou. Definitely gonna miss this when I move to NY. No fish tacos can compare to Fish Place's.

Today marks a few nice things: Marylou's 21st birthday, a HESI exam, and the end of Health Assessment. I'm actually done with my first nursing class and it's still kind of unbelievable to me. I can't believe I'm here already. Friday is the last clinical of the semester. This time last year, I was so frustrated with everything in my academic life and now I'm just riding the wave til the end. The water couldn't be any more comforting.

goodbye november

This morning I woke up to a partially opened window, an uninterrupted blue sky, unlimited sun, and a nice cold breeze coming through. I watched the first few minutes of my day unfold underneath my blankets. To me, there is nothing like it in comparison. I reached to play some William Fitzsimmons, and it made everything perfect.

Had some peach yogurt and pistachios for breakfast, and now I'm off to drop off some film and see what I can find at Hobby Lobby. All things I should not be doing the day before a test. Oh, my stomach is churning already. I did get one chapter read though, last night.

All I want is to take lovely food pictures like this. Right now, at least. Getting slightly tired of my gritty D40. Time to upgrade probably. One day, one day.
