Dear unhealthy viruses that are invading my body...PLEASE STOP!

It all started about two weeks before Christmas break. I had flu-like symptoms and was really weak at practice and such, but then it just went away. Then Christmas came...haha boy was that fun. We all were plagued with flu stuff again! It was either vomiting or diarrhea that kept us bedridden for hours on end, but I was also fortunate to get a sinus infection as well. Who knows, maybe I was the one that brought it after all! Sorry mom...

The Christmas bug also left about a day after and all I had to battle off was the sinus infection. I eventually did by the time we came back from Oregon and got settled into the new semester. I would only be good for maybe a couple of days until something would trigger a sore throat and start the whole process over again! I know what you're all thinking at this point, go see a stinkin doctor! Well let me tell you, I did just that about three weeks or so ago. She gave me amoxicillin that I have to take for ten days and it's supposed to clear everything up. It was doing it's job up until about two days ago when I got yet another sore throat and I can feel it affecting me the same way. Awesome.

What am I supposed to do?! I guess I could go back and get another medicine, but will that even work now? I feel like I'm just doomed to have this until I die...haha. Anyways, tis life right now.

Desire, Decide, and DO!

So as of late I've had a hard time making decisions about important things in my life that are coming up. The dilemma is figuring out what I want to do for spring and summer while I'm here. I already know I'm going to be out here and I already know I need to find a job. Check and check. My main problem is classes. I wasn't able to get into a few classes for my major this semester and I really wanted to get them done before I start next fall...that leaves me with spring and summer classes which I didn't want to do either. This has been on my mind for a long time and it's literally been driving me crazy just trying to think of all of my options and what is best for me. I recently talked with a friend about it and she gave me some good advice that is perfect for this situation and for others that I'm sure will come. She said something along the lines of if I've planned something out, and it looks good to me, then I just have to do it. Continuing to think and over analyze the situation will just waste time and delay my decision making. So I came up with a plan. Desire. Decide. Do!

My desire started with wanting to have these classes taken before next fall. I missed that this winter semester so that only leaves spring and summer. At first I was going to take both in the summer, but then I realized how hefty these classes are and how much outside of school I want to accomplish as well.

So then I moved onto deciding...I decided I'm going to take one class each semester. Here is where problems arose..I had made plans to come home in June, I didn't know which class I would take first, and I have no idea what job or where that job will place me. More deciding! I rehashed plans in my head and formulated one that I was leaning towards, but I still didn't want to make the decision myself. Then my friend shared that bit of info with me so I decided to DO!

I chose that plan I was leaning towards and signed up for my classes today. As of right now, I'm taking functional anatomy in the spring and exercises physiology in the summer term. Done. And I'm hoping that since I split them up like that I will still be able to make a trip home maybe missing a few classes here and there. I'll have to feel it out to see if I can miss class.

Sorry for the long boring post, but that's really all that's going down right now...
