little random facts


Lyndsay, from Scenic Glory did a post yesterday about little random facts from her life. So I wanted to share my own list with you guys as well. She originally got this idea from eat drink be a tourist.

eating/drinking: ritz crackers, strawberry Yoplait yogurt, a regular coke from JCW’s

listening to: 97.1 ZHT FM and spanish tunes from my iPod. Is anybody else obsessed with The Time - Dirty Bit from the black eyed peas? I love the rhythm that that song has!

pondering: about how I’m ever going to start that paper for pharmacology. I hate writing.  And I’m thinking about what the weekend will bring.

wearing: my new shirt from boheme boutique - taupe color with black lace across the front, ruffled sleeves. Skinny jeans. Black cowgirl boots. Pink watch. Hair curly and down.
 
anticipating: the weekend. Getting my taxes done and hopefully getting some money back.

baking: I don’t know what that word means...


reading: Nursing Interventions, Pharmacology textbooks. On the side when I get a chance which is never, PS I love you (have you guys seen that movie?), and I am number 4.

loving: every single moment in life. I love how much fun I’ve been having and the beautiful people that surround me. Coke. Pink things.

buying: this pink sweater I saw at the boutique the other day. I really really really want it.

If you do one like this let me know so I can read your list too! :)

Today

marks my 5 years and 8 month dating anniversary. it's amazing how fast time goes by. it feels like just yesterday when i first met my boyfriend. and with everyday that goes by i fall more deeply in love with him. i don't want to sound cheesy so i'll save the lovey dovey post for our 6th year anniversary.

now, i know that i need a couple of spankins cause i haven't been blogging regularly nor have i been commenting as much and for that you can thank my school. :P but i'm trying to find a balance between work, school, and blogging so I'm going to try my hardest to blog more often, ok.

With that said, i'm so excited that it's Friday today!Hip hip hooray!

Lovin' Wednesdays: Too School for Cool

Today was my first day of school this  spring semester 2011! I can officially say that I'm a Nursing student. :) So with that, here's what I'm loving this fine and dandy day...

My first day of school. 
I was super nervous today but this first day wasn't that bad. 
Although, I already was given plenty of homework to do. Bleck.

I can't wait for my stethoscope to arrive. 
And yes, it's pink! I just couldn't have it any other way.

I'm loving and am so grateful that my work is willing to work around my school schedule.
It makes life easier for me.

So what are you loving today? 
I wanna hear.

The worm inside me

Three weeks ago as I was showering and shaving my legs, I noticed this red spot on the back side of my lower leg.  It was a pretty good sized red circle. My first thought was that maybe some little critter had bit me as I was sleeping. I showed it to my boyfriend, and he thought it was a spider bite as well. So yesterday I caught the culprit, who was hiding behind my wooden chest, and vacuumed that sucker up because I didn't want to be bitten again. Well, this morning, as I was showering at freakin' 6:00 am in the morning, I noticed that the red circle was still there. And then it hit me. Maybe it isn't a spider bite. The red circle looks exactly the same as it did three weeks ago and I mean, do spider bite marks last that long??? 3 weeks...without changing?? So I thought back on my Microbiology class were we learned about microbes, fungi, poop and all that good stuff and remembered a picture that looked exactly the same as what I had on my leg. I went to WebMd, looked up some pictures, read some, and after all that, my diagnosis is that I HAVE RINGWORM!!!!

This is exactly what it looks like except maybe not so thick or scabby.
I would take a picture of my leg but my camera has no battery and is charging.

Going to the doctor to confirm my suspicion would be too expensive since I don't have health insurance. But ringworm is treated with an anti-fungal cream that you can get at any store and that's exactly what I'm going to do. I'll keep you updated.

Have any of you had ringworm before?
