1/8 through

The last time I blogged, I was beginning pharmacy school. I can't believe the first semester is over, it went by so fast. They are getting our shoes wet, so the classes weren't too bad. I'll be wishing to have this semester back once I step into second semester and so on. Not much has happened since I last posted. I've been busy with school, but trying to have fun time to time.

It is finally winter break, which means lots of food and fun with family & friends! On a sad note (for me), I will be getting braces this break. :( I will be the 23 year old with braces. That will bring my age down to maybe....12? Dang it. I already look young enough and braces are not going to help at all. I should just stop complaining and be happy. I will be happy in the long run with straight teeth. I just wish I got it done when I was in the awkward middle/high school stage.... too bad my dad wasn't very willing to pay for them back then. I just hope I get them taken off before I start my rotations because I will look like a teenage girl in a lab coat on. ):

On another note, I have many exciting plans for the upcoming semester! The one of my bazillion cousins is getting married in NYC in March, so I will be attending that! Also, I will be going on my first Alternative Spring Break (ASB) trip to Philly for...obviously, spring break! I am definitely the oldest one on the trip, but at least I fit in because I look so young. I also finish second semester classes in 12 weeks, so it'll be a quick semester.

Cheers to the holidays & give thanks for everything.

God Bless,

Mish

New Chapter

I moved into my new apartment on saturday. I realized school was starting VERY soon. In just 7 days, I will be in the pharmacy school on my next journey in becoming a Pharm.D.! This summer break is coming to an end, but I am so excited to start the next chapter of my life. I am sure I will complain a lot during pharmacy school about how difficult school is, but I will be just fine when I get out (or I hope so).

I spent a LOT of money this summer traveling around the U.S., so the past couple of days-- I've been trying to survive with the little cash I have left. Thankfully, my loan money came in today...phew! Sucks to know how much debt I will be in when I graduate pharmacy school, but I am so grateful to be attending UGA COP. It is a lot nicer on my wallet. =)

Summer 2010 rating: 8 out of 10! I didn't sit on my butt all day for once... I actually did things. The summer took a toll on my wallet, but it kept me from being bored. Once school starts, I need to get in a routine of exercising because the great summer definitely took a toll on my body. I am the heaviest I have ever been in my life. haha, I know I am not big, but it scares me how such good food & travel can make a girl gain so much weight.

Thanks for a great summer, summer! On to the hard part: pharmacy school

On another note, congrats to Mitch SSN & Yeyoung unni on their awesome marriage!

The Windy City

I always learn something new everyday. These are just a couple of things I've learned during my stay in Chicago:

1) Chicago is known as the "windy" city because of the politicians rather than the windiness of their city. interesting
2) When people are around the stadium (football, baseball, etc) with a sign "I need tickets" means they are selling tickets, not wanting tickets. This is to prevent them from getting arrested. Interesting again.

Anyways... I said I would update my blog with some pictures from Chicago. More pictures will be posted as my stay in Chicago goes on. This is basically my last summer break for the rest of my life, so I need to live it up. Chicago is my last vacation spot before rx school (excluding baltimore).

'nough of the blabbering, here are the pics!

The Art Institute of Chicago:

Deep dish pizza @ Gino's:

Homemade food at the cousins:

Lincoln Park Zoo (FREE!!!):

The part of the city I am staying at: Old Town

(& eric)

*EDIT*

More things I've learned:

3) Lake Michigan is actually made up of salt water... not fresh water like a "LAKE" is supposed to made up of. There are always exceptions!!!

Excitement

I have so much to look forward to this summer and whatever the future holds for me. Going to Chicago this weekend for the week, working more at CVS, & attending a wedding in Baltimore at the end of July. I want to go to a Braves game, go ice skating, and play a lottttttttttt this summer so call me up if you want to chill =) must need lots of fun before rx school starts.

I've been watching dramas more lately and I'm starting to get weird urges to clean the house & make food. Dramas are ADDICTING! its the devil to be exact. My older brother had a stomachache & said he wanted some tea & soup. I am NEVER very nice to my siblings, but today I felt like being nice, so I made him some citrus tea & egg drop soup. He asked me why I was being so nice, and I said I really don't know why. He said its probably because I've been watching korean dramas. WOW! hahahahahaha, I should be a little nicer to my siblings so they don't think of reasons why I am being nice. :P

I will be seeing the bf after a month apart this weekend. :) Chicago, here I come! I will be updating some pictures on my blog soon.
