"I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you"

It's been a while since I've posted so let me catch you all up to speed. Last week I only need two big assignments/tests on the agenda. Monday we turned in a paper on Assessment Tools (which was worth a test grade) and we had our first Neuroscience Lab test. Of course throw in my classes from every day plus the Pediatric OT Clinic Grand Opening at JMU (Thursday and Saturday) and I had myself a very busy week. Things died down towards Thursday which was actually kind of nice. After class Whitney and I decided to watch How to Train Your Dragon. Then we went to the Peds Clinic Opening, grabbed Panera for dinner and watched Toy Story 3. Friday, once class was over, I had a really productive, yet boring day. Ashley, Whitney, Morgan, and I went on a house hunt trying to figure out where we're gonna live next year. We found some good neighborhoods and are inquiring about those townhouses/houses this week. I'm not looking forward to moving again, but it'll be worth not having to pay as much.

Afterwards, I headed to Barnes and Noble and reviewed Neuro material with Joanna. I went home worked on a culture project, did some research on Huntington's Disease (which is for another assignment), did my readings for Monday, and finished my media project for the semester. Saturday morning I went to the clinic grand opening for the public. It was amazing! I played with kids all morning! It was one of those things that really made me feel like I'm where I'm supposed to be in my life. Even my professors said I looked so natural and comfortable with children. It was a huge compliment!

Then I drove to Richmond for the rest of the weekend. Kim and I listened to Taylor Swift, looked at some potential places to live, shopped, saw the Town (definitely worth seeing!) and watched How to Train Your Dragon (yes that was like the 4th time I had watched it this past week!). It was such a relaxing weekend with very little going on. I'm so thankful for friends, especially those who are just as spontaneous and random as I am.

Then I drove back. The normal 2 hour drive took me 4.5 hours! There was a bad accident on 64 and we didn't move at all. It was frustrating. I finally made it back to my apt. about 9:30 and just went straight to bed. The time change really threw me off yesterday!

Then today we got out Assessment Tool Papers back and my group got a 98! It's so nice to have such a high grade on an assignment, especially since she's a tough grader. Oh and did I mention that I go an A- on my neuro test??? Yea, it was a busy week, followed by a fabulous weekend!
