catching up

Friday night and saturday Travis and I went to Amherst for Acquire the Fire with the youth group from our church. We've wanted to get involved with the youth for a while but this was our first event. It was a little awkward since we only know the youth pastor Mike and we don't even know him all that well yet. It was a good time though. We got to see Kutless which was awesome! The speakers were good too. On saturday they had people write something down on paper that they wanted to get rid of in their life and then nail it to wooden crosses. It was really cool to see so many people get up and participate. Compassion was there and Travis and I decided to sponser another child! We already have one little girl from Kenya named Grace. Now we have a little boy from Thailand named Peter. We recently got a letter from grace that had pictures she drew on it. It was so cute!

We didn't get much sleep friday or saturday night. I was so tired at church on sunday! I had to study for an exam after and I read through about half my notes and then fell asleep! Luckily Travis only let me sleep for an hour or so and then I did some more studying. I was nervous for my test (in Drugs and Behavior) because I had heard the tests were really hard. I was mostly worried about the essay since I had no idea what it was going to be. I spent so much time studying my notes that I forgot to go over the article we had to read and of course that's what the essay was on! I remembered enough to at least get a paragraph out but I don't think I wrote or explained enough. I think I actually did pretty good on the rest of the test though so I'm guessing I got a B. I have a test in Behavior Analysis on wednesday but I'm really not worried about that one.

New Blog!

It's been a long day! I got up at 5:30 and got ready for school. Then I drove an hour to UNH for 3 classes from 8-1:30. I have health psych, behavior analysis, and drugs and behavior. Then I drive an hour to work where I nanny for 3 kids. 2 of them have Angelman's syndrome(a genetic disorder). They are sweet kids but a LOT of work! They definitly wear me out but at least I sleep good at night! I hope to keep up with this blogging thing but we will see how much I actually write.
