Final free is the way to be!

This week was my last final at UNTs campus. It's been a bit nostalgic to me to finish this particular chapter of my life as I now move forward to summer school (Physics... yuck!) at TCC, and then I start my observation/student teaching in Eagle Mountain-Saginaw ISD this Fall. I also will not be an active member in my sorority next fall due to my schedule and the busy times to be expected from what UNT calls PDS1 and PDS2. It's weird to think one year from now I will be graduating!

Well, anyways, as these weeks follow there will be more and more change. Katie comes home this Sunday which means Babes, more Grey's, and less food in Dad's kitchen. Oh and fun that comes from Katie being home! I get to go to another Ranger's game tomorrow night with Dad, David, Lizzy, Stephanie, Matt and Jason. It shoud be fun as well! I will be moving back home for my student teaching so at least one full year at home which sounds incredibly weird at this point. I realized that I haven't been home for a year since 2005! That's a long time ago.... but will hopefully work for the better. I plan to paint the guest bedroom in order to rid it of some extra holes in the walls and black streaks from the bunk beds. I also want to paint the dresser and possibly a night stand from Dad a new and matching color as well.

I am going on a cruise in about two weeks from Monday! I get to go with my awesome friends Matt, Richie, and Jenna. I also get to go with my amazing boyfriend Matt. We had so much fun last summer that I can only hope this summer tops it! There is a BIG possibility that we will be re routed from our original Mexico destinations to Key West and Freeport, Bahamas. That is a nice upgrade! There is also a possibility for on board credit (aka money back) because of the changes they are creating. If you want a souvenir... let me know? If you want something specific, then tell me asap! Well, I am at work and probably should get back to it, but hopefully this is enough of a post for Matt!

My bucket list (repeat from Gaston blog)

I am posting this here also to keep this blog a little more up to date while also throwing some extra accountability in there. I decided to follow the masses into creating my bucket list. At first, I had a bit of trouble getting it started, but after reading through your entries and others online, I fear that I have too much! I did repeat some from your lists, but just think, CARPOOL! Also, who better to do these activities with than friends/family? Here goes (in no particular order):

  1. Ride on a hot air balloon
  2. Eat a pizza in Italy
  3. Be a wife and a mommy
  4. Race someone with a beautiful and fast car
  5. Be debt free
  6. Make a remarkable impact on someone's life
  7. Meet a favorite author
  8. Help build a habitat for humanity house
  9. Visit 10 different countries (not counting the U.S.)
  10. Have a role (small or not) in a musical or movie
  11. Learn something new in depth (such as photography, languages, countries, etc)
  12. Learn to ballroom dance (even if its just the waltz...)
  13. Go white water rafting
  14. See a solar eclipse
  15. Be in Time Square for New Year's
  16. Go to a Broadway show while in New York
  17. Visit 7 wonders of the world (new or old)
  18. See the Northern Lights (yes some of you have this too, that just means we can carpool)
  19. Go to Hawaii with one and only
  20. Water ski and sailing
  21. Count my blessings each day (sounds easy but..... sometimes we forget!)
  22. Go on a Disney Cruise with as many family members (or friends if my family is lame) as possible! It can be the cool package to go to Walt Disney World first then cruise or vice versa!
Hope you enjoyed my bucket list...
