tag you're it...

Melinda sent me this game. I am afraid it is going to bring out the nerdy side of me...

The Rules: 1. I have to post these rules before I give you the facts. 2. Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves. 3. People who are tagged need to write a post on their own blog (about their eight things) and post these rules. 4. At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names. 5. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

Random Facts: #1: In Jr. High I was known as the girl with tinted glasses. #2: I was 5th place in the state of Oregon for girl's high school bowling, but now w/ lack of practice don't claim to be a bowler #3: I am an only child. #4: I secretly (or not so secretly) would like to be a hippy; I like the eclectic, natural, and relaxed lifestyle. #5: I love to cross off things in my planner/to do list. #6: I have a sand collection...little pieces of the world. #7: I would say I am an adventurous eater. #8: I like to go to the doctor's office because it is always interesting to me.

Abdullah, Alan .. TAG, YOU'RE IT!!
I don't know many bloggers, but I will look for more people I konw.

horrible grammar...

I just went back and read some blogs I have previously written, and I was appalled! My grammar is not very good at all. I quickly write what is on my mind and miss the proofreading step. This is unfortunate because then you all have to read run-on sentences, punctuation errors, and misplaced words. Honestly, I really am a college student, and I do know how to write! Sorry, and I will try to do better :).

how...

Does anyone know how I can add that special Links feature, so I can keep posted on others blogs?

summer...

Hmm, what have I been doing lately? Most of the time it is just a blur, but I will try to remember. I have been still doing school....one more week of anatomy, then I get a two week break! Things are picking up with Mortar Board, and I am just trying to pull things together for the first of the year. I am so excited be leading a group like this, and am especially excited to be working with certain people in the group. I met with my friend Kyung for coffee the other day. She is the VP of Mortar Board, so I imagine we will be spending a lot of time together, and I knew her from 2:42. Anyhow, it was so great to talk to her because it is encouraging to have a believer headed in the same direction (med school) as me; we were really able to relate about the struggles we face in this pre-profession.

That same day I lucked out and got a ticket to the first football game of the year!! Those of you who know me at all, probably also know that I get easily bored with things like sports, or movies...it may be a downfall of mine. However, I was really excited to go to a friend's tailgater, and see a lot of friends at the game that I haven't seen in awhile. I realized I get really distracted in big crowds; somehow I missed a ten minute pause in the game for a broken leg that happened to the other team! How can someone miss that?!

Last night, after what seemed like fate not wanting us to go (late anatomy lab, lost cell phones, gas stations with technical problems, etc.), my friends Jen, Brock, and I went up to a college church group in Portland called the Way. There was a concert/guest worship artist we went to see. It was good to be amongst so many other people worshiping God together. After that I got so energized because I once again got to see a lot of people I hadn't in awhile, but had a hard time holding a conversation because I was so excited/distracted by all the people. Haha it was a lot of fun though, and we went to Red Robin where I was actually able to talk with everyone. I need to take more pictures so I can remember these times.

Today, I went to Body World 3 at OMSI. It was pretty cool, especially after a summer of anatomy. Did I mention only one more week of school?!! Hurray!
