Life is good

So it's been almost a month since I've added a post but I think I have more than enough to write about now. So Katie is pregnant!!!! That's really the big news right now. We have already been able to get two free sonograms and have been able to see the baby. Katie is just 8 weeks along which puts her due date around June 23rd which is going to be really close to the day that my brother Zack gets home from his mission. We've pretty much decided on a name if it is a girl, and there is still a lot of debate for the name if it is a boy. Katie and I are both really excited about the baby. Katie is so excited that she has already devoted a portion of her time to shopping online for it. The only thing that we've really gotten so far is a stroller, which is technically going to be a Christmas present form my parents. But Katie looked online and found the perfect one so when we went down to Denver over the weekend we stopped at a Babies "R" Us and were lucky to find the exact stroller Katie wanted. Seven months to go and we already have a stroller.

School is going pretty well, I have 3 tests this week. I have a Spanish test tomorrow and on Wednesday I have both a Calc and Biochem test. The Calc test shouldn't be too bad but I'm not looking forward to the Biochem test. I'm actually on a break from studying for that test right now.

The waiting game is continuing for dental school. I won't hear anything from the schools until at least December 1st, so I keep counting down the days. I could actually hear from Nebraska as early as 11:00 pm November 30th because they send out most acceptance e-mails at midnight in Nebraska, so thanks to the time change I could hear an hour before December 1st. November 30th is two weeks from today, but I'm only counting 6 days of that because weekends and Thanksgiving break don't really count.

Well I need to get back to studying Biochem. Wish me luck.

So it's my turn to write this time. Jared has been hogging all the posting...and by the way, not even mentioning it to me. It's Thursday night and Jared is out tutoring. I just got back from a meeting with some parents who's son I'm going to hang out with after school in November and doing some Visiting Teaching. We're headed to Casper tomorrow to surprise my dad for his birthday, and I'm really excited about it. I still have a lot to do before we go though, both homework and housework. School is still going well. Jared did great on his Calculus midterm, and has a Psychology test tomorrow. I did an assignment yesterday and today and found out that it's not due till next week, but I still have several more things to do. Work is going well, but I'm definitely ready for the weekend. I'm not sure if Jared has told anyone that this blog exists, but if he has, I wish everyone a happy Friday and a great weekend!!!

About to start another week

Me and Katie had a pretty good weekend, we were able to go Fort Collins on Saturday to do a little shopping, and mostly relaxed today. There is a Five Guys in Fort Collins and I was pretty excited to be able to get lunch there. I think me and Katie might open up in Five Guys and a Panera Bread in Casper at some point in the future, it's at least a good thought. I have a psychology test this week and I'll find out how I did on my Calc mid-term by at least Tuesday. Katie will hopefully find out about her mid-term paper for history too, she wrote it on Emma Lazarus, who wrote the poem "The New Colossus" which is on the base of the statue of liberty. I bought some jeans from Hollister in Fort Collins and really like them, I was quite surprised. They are cheaper than Abercrombie ones and I like them better too. Well that was the weekend I hope it didn't come off too scattered.

Calc mid-term last night

So I didn't post anything last night but I have a few minutes before Biochemistry begins, so I thought I would give a quick update. I had a Calc midterm last night then tutored for a couple hours. I was really pleased with how the Calc midterm went, I think I will get a good grade but I guess we'll see. Then after tutoring I came home and helped Katie with some homework because she had a lot and was kinda overwhelmed. My TA is doing the lecture for Biochem today, and he drinks coffee just like a real professor would during lecture, guess he's on the right track. Lecture has started so I guess that's it for now.

Another day down

So I seem to find myself thinking and waiting for December 1st (the day the first set of dental school acceptance letters get sent out). I don't like just waiting around now, I'd rather be doing something. December 1st could become a new personal holiday if all goes well. I didn't have much homework today, just tutored a couple hours. Katie was the lucky one with homework tonight.
