Football, festivities and fall-fun!!

This Saturday my Dad and I are going to the OU game!! I can't wait! Whenever we go to a game, it’s a whole ordeal! There are shopping adventures, sightseeing, and trying new restaurants. Here we are last year...!

Dad and I tried some "strawberry banana" smoothies at some hippie restaurant.
These are our reactions.....

"Here goes nothin'.."

"This is a smoothie?!"

These are the delicious boritos we ate!

And us right before the game! It was so much fun!!

Also recently, I became part of the Guinnes Book of World Records!! Okay, it's not as intense as it may sound... UCO hosted the biggest game of duck, duck, goose ever recorded. There were over 1,600 people there! I even got a shirt for being one of the first 1500!...

All I can say is, I'm glad I wasn't picked!!

Blury, but see the shirts?!!!

Graduate or Bust!

Monday marks the beginning of the last semester of my undergraduate program!!! That means only four months until my degree! SO HAPPY! This is also a very busy four months... I need to apply to grad school, apply to dietetic internships, and hopefully get some dietetic experience by volunteering at clinics around the city. Applying to the dietetic internship is quite a process. There is a nationwide matching system called the DICAS. Whenever the word DICAS is spoken, it’s as if the sky turns black, smoke rises, and you hear a faint dun dun dunnnn, in the background. So basically, I have until September to finish my application to the DICAS, then you select your three top choices for programs, and the internship directors choose their top choices. Then they are all matched on D-day, quite like rush. The master list is posted, and you find out where you were put. (A decision that will ultimately alter the course of your career/life/future in general) Best case scenario, I am accepted to the master’s program at UCO, and also accepted into the UCO internship program. That would be amazing!

So needless to say, I’m nervous…and anxious and excited.
Lets get this show on the road!

Girls Getaway

So I spent a few days with the most amazing friend, Sam!!! We ran errands, had dinners, went out, stayed in, relaxed in the pool, and just had a great time.

First of all, Adam made us some tunes!!!! One cd of the 80's, two cd's from the 90's, and one from Today! I LOVED them! I'm still listening to them in my car, daily...

 Next, Sam and I painted the town red!! (and green....and yellow too.) We we offered quite a few free drinks and as you can see we couldn't keep up. (don't worry we didn't keep them all.)

 This was the only pic we took while out that night, but I think it pretty well reflects our moods :)

 THIS lovely lady is Ginna. She is such a spark of life!! I absolutely love her :)

 And this is the fire on the road that sent us back to Tulsa for the last night, instead of heading to Fayettville.

 I have to say, I'm glad we ended up staying in Tulsa, we had a blast! We got to see Devon, and also Ginna! Glad we didn't miss out!! But also, I can't wait to make a trip to Fayettville sometime to see the infamous Dixon street!
I had such a wonderful time!!!
