1/2 an MSSW

Yes that's right, I'm halfway to having a Masters in Science of Social Work. My semester finished up last Monday. Hard to believe how fast it went! In case you were wondering, I still have my 4.0 :) And not having to worry about school for almost four months is a glorious feeling. I need to enjoy this time while I have it. Not only do I not have to worry about school, I also can postpone worrying about the real world for a little bit because I still have one year of school left before I have to make the big decisions. What a good place to be. Today I worked at Americana from 8-4, and then I was done. That's right. Only an 8 hour day and no homework. I didn't know what to do with myself! I worked out (cardio salsa!), cooked, watched some Jeopardy, relaxed, now I'm blogging. This is so wonderful. This summer shall be good. For the month of May I will have 40+ hours a week at Americana because someone is on vacation the whole month, then I can have up to 33 hours per week for the rest of the summer. I think that should be enough for me so I won't get another job. In my spare time I shall work out (my housemates and I are joining the Y close to us), read for pleasure (I spent almost an hour tonight figuring out what books I want to read this summer), scrapbook, expand my cooking skills, get allergy shots twice a week (isn't that exciting?), take naps, go out, and spend time with friends. And I can't forget just sitting around doing nothing because I can. Really, I can't express how much all this excites me. Grad school really steals your life temporarily. But I still enjoyed it. I took a couple days off work this past week so I could have a 4 day weekend to rejuvinate myself after a crazy semester. I went home to Columbus and spent lots of time with family and friends. I got to spend a lot of time with Denise which was fun, and she took that picture of me by the way (she decided I needed new pictures for my MySpace). And my friend Becky got married this weekend. Weddings are always fun. I caught the boquet - again- ha ha. I think that makes 5. Still not married though!! Anyways, I had a great time and now I'm back in Louisville and life is good. And the Derby is this weekend!! Time flies. It will be a good time I am sure. Sorry for the lack of paragraphs, for some reason this stupid one won't let me have them so my blogs will just be one big ramble!
