my super exciting life update

So after looking at Jenna’s “for-profit-blog”, I decided that there needs to be an update to ours. How have you girls been???? Naomi, are you still working at the animal shelter? Caton, how’s the teaching going? Kristen, was this your first week of student teaching, how did it go?

Well big news in my life is that I have adopted a kitten, Baily. He is an orange tabby that is about 5 months old. I can’t believe it but I have had him for over a month now! It’s a pretty big eye opener (my family never had cats), but I am definitely learning. Who knew cats chase their tails? And like to spill their water dish all over the place? And are up pestering you all the time at night? Anyway he is really good, and it’s nice company, when it seems like all I do is study. Check out my face book pictures of him, he’s so cute!

My other big to-do recently has been to find a new place to live for next year. Who knew moving in with people you didn’t know would be a bad idea, lol. Oh well! So currently I’m looking at a house in Varna. Ironically, it’s “The Varna House”. You know- the disgusting house that AGR transfers use to live in. But it has been all re-done inside, so it doesn’t look too bad anymore. So get ready for this- I’m gonna live with Jen Cassano- who actually has seemed to become more normal as the semester has progressed. I’m also living with another girl who seems very nice, but has a girlfriend. That will be a new experience for me, lol.

No new news on the guy front. I feel like I’m gonna be single forever! Seeing as though there are like 4 straight, single guys in my class, options are pretty slim. I don’t have a ton of free time not spent in the vet school either, so it’s pretty much decided that I will the crazy lone cat lady, lol. I went out for Sushi tonight with some vet school friends, and the one girl told me that she has an ad on match.com. I don’t know if I have quite come to that yet, but it’s tempting!

I had a nice 2 week Christmas break from school- so I drove to Ohio to see my parents. This was a real nice break, but kinda boring seeing as though I know nobody else there. Luckily lots of shopping and a brand new outlet mall was just built like 10 min from my house. You should all be impressed with me that I drove the 9.5 hours there. I was pretty nervous about it but I did it and lived!! I was actually most scared about having to go to a gas station I didn’t know, lol! Caton, you may have driven close to my house in Ohio. Did you drive on 71 through Ohio?? If so, pretty close to my parent’s house!
