Getting Political

Juli got her wisdom teeth out yesterday morning. She was quite entertaining on her drugs.. apparently the news was on in her room while she was waiting so all of her loopy/high comments afterwards were more like tangents about the gas and oil industries and our horrible economy! We had a great time with it :) She even talked about Obamney..

Anyways, she's feeling much better today and is hardly swollen! Her surgery went really well. She's not quite ready to head out into the world so we're staying home and having church on our couch in our pajamas! Pastor Randy Roberts has been doing a series on prayer and our relationship/friendship with God. Its been so encouraging and wonderful! I'm really excited that I can hear his message from home today-- Technology is so cool!

Board #6

I have my very last Dental Hygiene board today-- California's Law & Ethics Exam. I'm a bit nervous about it, quite a few of my classmates have failed :/ It isn't the end of the world if you fail, you just pay $28 dollars and take it again but I'd rather not do that.. I'd like to pass! Just praying God brings to mind everything I need to know during the test.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own expectations. 

--Proverbs 3:5

 No matter what happens, though, I trust He has a plan and I am happy to follow. :)




EDIT:
I PASSED!!
God is so good :) :)

Happy 7-Eleven Dayy

Today is 7/11 so naturally, Ashley, Riki, Juli and I had to go to 7-Eleven and get a free slurpee.

Well then we got a great idea... go to more 7-Elevens and get MORE free slurpees! We went to 5 :)

4 friends, 5 7-Elevens, 20 slurpees... priceless! Literally :)

A day for the books!

UPDATE

Lots has happened since April!

• Been training for a marathon with Randi (we got up to 9 miles!!)
• My best friend in the whole wide world came back from a far away land called Ebeye :)
• I graduated from dental hygiene school!! 
• I found a boards patient the week before boards.. cutting it kinda close.
• Passed my clinical boards :D
• Went to Six Flags the next day to celebrate with Randi, Ashley, and Juli!
• Moved out of the dorm to a friends house, to a lady's house, spent a week in Nor Cal, and then moved to our current house-- 5 homes in 4 weeks (not recommended).
• Spent a week in Chico, CA for Randi & Kevin's weddding!! So perfect.. more to come later!
• Spent 4th of July in San Diego with Jeremy, Justin, Lindsey, Travis & Sam for the infamous firework show... it was supposed to be 15 minutes.. it was 9 seconds. I don't care what anyone says... it was awesome!

• More things to share later.. Ashley is in town for the day and we're doing a girls day! Plus, its 7/11... so we have get free slurpies from 7/11!!

Feeling super blessed to have such wonderful friends :)

OKC THUNDER

I had the wonderful opportunity to attend one of my favorite team's games!

I found out our school was selling tickets and I immediately knew I had to go. Shari, fellow OKC fan, and I were all over it! We left after school, well after my school... Shari skipped. :)

We left early so we would have plenty of time. Once we got down to LA we were starving so we wanted something to represent our experience so we ate DELICIOUS burgers from the ESPN Zone in the Nokia plaza. We even had sweet potato fries :)

Unfortunately, the Thunder lost but we had the best time cheering them on! (They were winning most of it-- which makes it sadder.) But we enjoyed ourselves regardless! Its so wonderful to have someone here at school that I've grown up with-- every time we hang out we can't stop talking about home :) I love it!

It was a perfect way to end our Monday!! :)
