The end of an era

So the annual Athletic Training banquet is tonight. My parents are coming in for it this weekend so I'm really excited about it. I haven't seen them since January so it will be nice. Plus I will get to thank them for everything during my quick speech.

In other news that's not so great...my transmission is messed up on my car. I found out yesterday during a normal oil change that something is severely screwed up. I'm still waiting to find out what exactly it is.

I need to get working on my speech before mom and pop get here.

good news all around

So I spent the weekend in Pittsburgh working a volleyball tournament. 42 hours of work in 3 days is a hard life. Add that to the thousands of screaming girls with hovering parents and it makes it a bit stressful.

I did find out though that I don't have to take an exam for my Missouri certification. I also just found out tonight that my Comp Studies teacher isn't making the graduating seniors do a final paper. That is a huge relief since it was supposed to be 6-8 pages. That also means that I will get a good grade as long as I don't botch this last 2 page paper.

I also don't have to work until Monday which will give me some time off.

Quick updates

Kris Allen won American Idol...I'm very happy about that. I hope to hear his cd sometime soon.

The Cardinals swept the Cubs...we are still relishing in those victories. It really never gets old.

I move to Missouri in just over a month (July 5th). That means school is almost out...aka 2.5 weeks.

Plans for San Antonio are starting to finalize. It will be a good time.

I'm going to Pittsburgh this weekend to work a volleyball tournament. Lots of screaming girls should be a blast. Money is money though.

I am basically done with all my big projects for school, so I'm gonna start to coast.

So ready to be done

Man...I'm so close to being done. I can see the finish line just past all these remaining projects I have to get done. It's so hard though seeing everyone saying they are already finished though. It makes my motivation dwindle away.

Relay for Life

So I walked the Relay for Life last night from 9pm-6am this morning. I never really ran out of energy until right at the end when my legs were too heavy to keep going. The Athletic Training Club at OSU participated as a group as our part of community service. It was a blast hanging with everyone while we walked and chilled at the tent. I felt like since I couldn't be home for Mother's Day, this would be a great "gift" for my mom. Today is actually the 10 year anniversary of my grandma's (my mom's mom) lost battle with cancer. Seeing how it falls on or around Mother's Day every year, it is extremely tough for her. I guess this was my way of giving the day some meaning. Needlesstosay I am extremely tired b/c sleeping in the middle of the afternoon is tough. But I have stuff to do so I must push through.

WOOOO!!!

I passed my certification exam. I am super stoked. Now I only have 5 more weeks of class, 1 week of finals, and then I can add ", ATC" to the back of my name. Such a relief to finally know.

Another rainy Tuesday

So I have yet to have my tennis class on Tuesday this quarter (5 weeks in) because it rains every week so the class gets canceled. I finally did get to have my first intramural softball game last night...however, I almost wish it didn't happen. We got destroyed but I went 1-2 with a run scored so not a bad first night.

This Saturday is 2 weeks from the end of the testing window so I should start finding out about my exam soon. I'm getting anxious again.

I sent in my information for my lease in Missouri. I'm getting excited to move. It's gonna be a great place.

My fantasy baseball teams are on a roll right now. I don't want to say to much and jinx them but I could be perfectly happy if they played how they are right now for the rest of the season. It would be a good year if that happened.

The Buckeyes had a decent showing in the draft. 2 first rounders, a 2nd rounder, a 3rd rounder, a 4th rounder, and a 5th rounder.

Soccer is moving into its last big stretch and then I'm basically done for the year except for rehabs. But when they are done, it means no more 7 am practices. That will be great.
