man..it's been crazy out here. we don't have air conditioning so we've been making the best of things. aka avoiding the upstairs and playing as many hands of pinochle as humanly possible (why? because the tvs r upstairs.)

so in other news..i'm applying to submatriculate into a master's program at penn in a couple years. well i'm applying now, but i wouldn't go back for 2 or 3 years after i graduate. i'm really nervous about the whole thing, i mean i know i can only do my best and nobody's ever been rejected who's applied, but what if that first person's me? i mean i only have the requirements..nothing extra. no published work or grand thesis on some breakthrough nursing issue. i dunno, i take the GREs this thursday aka 2 days from now and i'm nervous. i'm gonna bomb the verbal. i mean really, when am i gonna use the term "morose" when talking to a patient? this is my shot though, i can get them to pay for it and acute care is what i've always wanted to do...i should be bouncing off the walls with excitement and i am on the inside a bit. within 5 years of graduating undergrad i'll be a licensed NP..hot damn.
my brother moved out last week and now he's living and hour and a half from here, working at a VA home as a housekeeper. he likes the people there but its a shitty job to have coming right out of college. he'll move up soon though hopefully.
i'm going out to st. chuck for the first time since....i can't even remember. i can't say since i moved from there but since atleast 9th grade. i'm stoked..minus emma being in nashville for some country music mumbo jumbo. lol but i get to see nikki and jen which is more than i could ask for. it's weird to think of how i was then compared to how i was in highschool to how i am now. i haven't changed that incredibly but my life has. apparently st. charles is huge now..i mean it was pretty big when i lived there but they have super highways running everywhere now and everybody's grown up. i think it's gonna be a nice trip down memory lane. i miss playing football every day after school, arguing on the bus about baseball..just having neighborhood friends who i could sneak out with. lol good times.
my sister's best friend from highschool is getting married friday. they dont talk much anymore but she made laura a bridesmaid which i find very interesting...but yeah..so my parents and i r driving out and meeting laura and ed there. then saturday we're gonna walk around old st charles and shop probably. lol. i think ive been shopping out here more in this one month than i have during my entire year at school. i don't mind though.
another update- my new email address is goofy74314@comcast.net, my parents decided to switch cause aol is a pain in the ass.

thought to ponder: why is theo from roadrules or real world on last comic standing? how random..
