Its been so long

I know I haven't written in way too long, and this will not make up for it. But the semester is almost over, and hopefully I will have more time after exams to fill you in on the day to day things peppering my life. I can't make any promises though, Logan dominates my attention when I go home. I don't think five minutes can go by without him declaring "Look at ME sis! Look at me!" For as much as I love him, he is a piece of work. You wouldn't believe how much he gets away with "I want money" when there are toy machines. I couldn't. I swear my jaw hit the ground when mom told him she only had fifty cents. I can't blame her though, home all day with him, anything to keep the whining down is wonderful. The problem is he's too smart, but still only two. ... And maybe I'm a bit too strict. He did tell over break "go back to school sis" after telling him to stop whatever he was doing. And you better believe he got to sit in time out for being so rude. He always forgives me though, and as soon as he finishes his tirades of " 'Ogan's sorry. Sorry Sissy. 'Ogan's sorry" he's back in my lap. So we'll see how break goes.

In further apologies for the lack of posting I decided to share a bit of what I've been doing lately. I wanted to give you a nice picture to look at, so here it is:


This past month, and the rest of school this semester, have been and will be pretty crazy. There has been tons of homework- especially organic chemistry. Although I have begun to really enjoy the subject, the information is still challenging and requires lots of studying. I had my lab final last Tuesday and it was the most ridiculous thirteen page, short answer only, test I have ever taken. What was even more insane is that we had to clean afterward and the whole ordeal lasted over the three hour time period. I actually had to skip my other class for that day just to unwind. Then there was a statistics final this past Friday. Luckily the teacher curved well and I ended the course pretty well. I have one exam Monday, one Friday, a ten page paper due Saturday, and my organic chemistry final the following Wednesday. Wish me luck- I'll be studying my butt off from here on out.

This past Friday was also interesting in that my roommates decided to throw a joint birthday party. Now, I don't drink, and I don't party. I am not a huge fan of social events and prefer to hang out with small, quiet groups. That is not a party, in fact I believe its the exact opposite of a party. Anyway, it was very loud, very stinky, and lasted all night. My bathroom was trashed in the morning- as well as everything that wasn't my bedroom. I was actually so germaphobic that I had to leave as quickly as possible Saturday, and did not return until late enough that they had time to clean it. Which, the only did partially; however all of that has been resolved now. Thank goodness.

For most of Saturday I watched the state high school football championship game here at Tech. My cousin is a cheerleader for Osbourn, and it was nice to see her for a bit. Even though it snowed for the entire day, and the game didn't go so well for the Eagles, I still had a good time. The only bad part of that day was slipping on some black ice and bruising my knee and hip up pretty well. They're both a bit swollen, and awfully purple, but its alright. (The picture above is of my hip if your wondering. I think it looks kind of like the symbol pi, how about you?)

Anyway, thats a little about what's been going on with me. I would love to keep going but I have a paper to finish for Tuesday. Just wanted to let you all know I am still alive. Just very busy.
