why wouldn't I?

Thanks to my 11 p.m cup of Turkish coffee from the delicious restaurant Mazza, I will now arrange a study place in the basement of my mothers house. I hope to find a nice desk in which to place my I Mac, generously given to me by my brother, a lamp, books of the medical sorts, and of course the goddess of learning Saraswati. I hope to put the EMDR machine to good use for the next six months and remember the mantra.. I can and I will.

I have been doing fun things

Having just returned from a midnight bike ride with my ipod and no helmet I wanted to tell the world what has been going on in my life as of yet this summer. First off, I got a few clients with my Senior Services so low and behold, I am an entrepreneur. But I am totally digging my waitress job as well still, it is a great social outlet and gets me out of the damn suburbs. The pool beckons nightly and my laps are improving (especially when I am angry.. found the secret to a good work out). I hike multiple times a week and the canyons here still take my breath away. The summer concert series starts tomorrow with Modest Mouse and what a better way to enjoy a night?
I took my mother to the hospital today to meet with a dietitian and totally got inspired to be the best O.T I can be. I am going to start reviewing my notes from Anatomy and Physiology. I need to maintain a B average in the program so I had better start it with some good summer studying under my belt. I also would like to start finishing the books I begin because when school rolls around I will not have time for a fun read. And besides that, reading is the best thing I can do for myself.
A few things have been not so fun though. The first ever time of feeling my biological clock the other night threw me for a total loop. I was glad the next day when I held an infant that the feeling was nowhere to be found because, lets face it, like anyone still needs to be procreating. We have an oil spill to clean up, which sadly hasn't had much of my attention because I decided it was a good idea to open my heart to a fellow who in return sort of chipped it. Being a bad kisser aside, I gained volumes from him on how I should be treated in my upcoming relationships. And there will certainly be more to come this Summer, but more importantly academia in the Spring!
