I PASSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I take my boards tomorrow morning. For those who don't know, I'm being tested over EVERYTHING nursing related that I have learned in the last two years.

Dear lord, so much to say, but how on earth to write it all down ( Read more... )

I'm getting married today!!!!! (I should probably sleep for a few hours.)

My To-Do List for this Week:

• Wrap presents for bridal party/parents
• Make my dad a birthday cake
• Talk with reception hall about food, when DJ/cake can deliver, when can I check into my room, when can we bring the centerpieces down and will anyone there help set them up

• Finish picture list and meet with photographer

The graduation party the other night was so much fun! It was held at the Davenport and I do think that most of my class was able to show up. I entertained Matt by telling him little tid-bits about some of the people I was in class with and we did quite a bit of dancing. It was definitely a good way to finish up my college experience. :)

Tonight was loads of fun with a few people coming over to celebrate Matt's birthday. Jenn, Jeff, Nick, Nick, and Rachel came over in the evening to surprise Matt since his birthday was about a week ago and there really wasn't anyone available to make a big to-do about it. He had a very good time, which is definitely what matters, and everyone else ( Read more... )
