I haven't been on bebo too much anymore! i;m sorry. Though i like bebo better, more people have myspace, so i'm on there more often. But i know that this is how gramma keeps up with me so i'm posting this for you!!!

Whew... it's almost over! i have one more final left in my (favorite) Medical terminology class. I have to sit down and study hard for it. It is over the entire book that we have been going through last quarter and this quarter. Twenty chapters!!!! all the body systems and pharmacology stuff. I actually really like that class and have a great grade in it. And i know my stuff pretty well, i must say. I mean i BETTER know my medical terminology by now! After a whole school year of CNA training in high school and the last two quarters of med term. and all the other medically related knowledge i've randomly subjected myself to, i better know my stuff! After all that, i'd have to be pretty stupid to fail that test! but you never know. it is ME we're talking about! hehe. anyways... summer is coming and this year when i look at my summer i see... WEDDINGS! I am so happy for all my friends that are getting hitched this summer and i am honored to be part of 3 of their big days! Angie, Mary, and Rachel, thank you for asking me to help out with or be in your weddings. I am truly blessed to know each of you. I love each of you so much and just want to wish you all the best in your marriages. I know you all will do well. :-) I am REALLY excited to be decorating Rachel's wedding cake for the wedding in two weeks. I am really stoked to be able to start decorating cakes. it is my outlet. my relax and focus time. I have missed it for so long. So thank you for asking me to do this because now i can start building the portfolio that i have put off for so long. One day, maybe i'll be decorating wedding cakes professionally! that would be sweet! I am also decorating Mary's wedding cake and i am equally excited and grateful for the oppertunity. I am doing flowers for Angie's wedding and i am also excited to be able to add that to my portfolio! Not only are those three getting hitched, but Heidi and Josh, Daniella and Kyle, Cheri and Jeremy, Jessica and Robert are also tying the knot this summer! Congratulations you guys!

Any-who, enough of that. At the end of the summer, hopefully i will be able to take a nice little vacation back east to Illinois or South Carolina (probably both) . Everyone's getting hitched and going off to school and i am.... taking a vacation!!! Yahooo!!!

Me and carl broke up. long story. I am going to miss him though. he's a good guy. he is just at a really tough spot in life, just like i am. It's better for both of us this way.

well, it's been fun.. gotta go figure out why my car is leaking radiator fluid. ;-)

WOW! Tony called me on saturday and pretty much handed me back my heart on a silver platter! i know that sounds wierd but it is so true. We talked for so long and he apologized for hurting me so bad... It says a lot about him that he cared enough to call and be humble enough to apologize. Most guys would have just not cared, figured their ex was fine. but, no, he called and apoligized! He really is a great person. the best part is we're still on good terms.. we'll always be friends - he assured me of that! I am so happy now. i feel like ME again! it is great!
anyways, school is great. We have people over to our house all of the time. I love having people over! I have started going to west sound community church in silverdale and i love it at that church! a few new college groups have popped up here and there and so i finally have a few options for hanging out with people my age! yahoo! I talked to Penny yesterday and hopefully she will come and visit soon! she wants to come before winter is over.. which is really soon! Yahooooo! well, gotta go to work! later, Holly Kirsten

Things are moving right along now... it's quite fun and quite lonely at the same time... you know... i never realized how hard it would be to live with someone who is engaged... Don't get me wrong, i love mary and david, i think they are absolutely perfect for eachother, but it is just a little hard for me to watch them and see how much they adore eachother... Neither one thinks they deserve the other... that's how it should be... it makes you more appreciative of everything the other person does for you. Valentine's day isn't going to be easy this year...especially since everyone around me has boyfirends or husbands.
ANYWAYS, school is going great... I am determined to get a 4.0 in all my classes.. i've got a good start so far. It's kind of fun to be back in school, keeps me busy and now i don't feel so stupid! ;-) hehe. My math calss is just algebra and i remember all of it from high school so i am acing everything0so far (knock on wood) ;-) And i love my Medical Terminology class... it is a breeze since i went to a technical school for half of my senior year for CNA training. good times....
Our apartment/house is coming together slowly but surely... we JUST got our beds in 3 days ago because they were in David's storage and his truck broke... so mary and i slept on the futon for the last 3 weeks.... it was good we finally got our beds because now we aren't so grumpy from lack of quality sleep... that futon is FAR from comfortable... but what futon isn't. right?
Guess what i got for christmas from Mary...! A Kitten...!!!!! He is the cutest little thing ever.... i named him a huge big long name but we call him Raja for short (after Jasmine's Tiger Raja in the disney movie Aladdin.) I was going to try and find a cool pronunciation of tiger(because as we all know i love tigers and all kinds of wild cats) in a different language but i couldn't find one the that sounded cool enough.. so then one day i just thought of Princess Jasmine's pet tiger in Aladdin was Raja.. and that is a sweet name that you don't hear too often. yeah, so now that you have been fully informed on how i named my cat- i'm sure you are falling asleep- hmmm.. what else can i tell ya'll...
Veronica is doing well... she has started rehab and is doing so well! She has had to deal with some bad health issues on top of detoxing/withdrawls but i am SO proud of her for hanging in there and keeping on top of her new responsibilities that have come with trying to straighten things out. She's having the rehab center send me progress reports and i am so happy about that. I can help keep her accountable. KEEP IT UP VV. I LOVE YOU!!!
well.. i can't think of anything else interesting to write now.. so i am going to go.... post some comments for me guys-so i know i am not just writing for nothin'!!! I love you all!
