White water rafting!

This weekend my small group went camping at Ohiopyle state park in south western PA. It really was a great get away. I typically only like to go camping about once a year, and that's plenty. But this past weekend was really very enjoyable. I'm convinced that if I'd get myself a small single air mattress, I'd love camping :) I think that's my biggest draw back to camping, is the sleepless nights and sore bones the next morning.
We spend a large part of saturday white water rafting! This was a first for me, and I thoroughly enjoyed it! We paddled our way through class 2 and 3 rapids...which were plenty big for me :) Between the 12 of us we had three rafts....only one of the groups flipped their rafts. They have a completely different take on rafting because of it, and plenty of bruises to show for it. Between rapids, we stopped to do some cliff jumping and swimming.
The rest of sat. we took pretty easy, as everyone was sore, and some of us brusied. It didn't rain much last weekend. (that's a surprise in it's self, The last 3 years I've gone camping it has rained, and was miserable.) We packed up camp sunday morning and then hiked a trail that led us behind a huge water fall. It was absolutely beautiful. I don't have any pics. to show, they are all on a friends camera :( So the weekend was a much needed break from life. Then monday it was back to the Books....Bio has proven to be a challenge. I know I can handle it, its just going to require a lot of sacrificed time studying away....trying to memorize, and memorize, and memorize some more!
The parts I can understand have proven to be very interesting :) haha.

Hit'n the books

So, as of monday I am officially a collage student! First time back to school since I graduated 6 years ago. I'm going for my RN, taking my gen. eds. at HACC; our local community college. It's been so much fun getting back into the class room and learning again!!

We'll give this a whirl....

Ok Michawn, I just want you to know I'm doing this all for you!! I hope that makes you feel important. I'm not going to make any promises, but I'll try to keep this as up to date as possible. :)
A funny thing happened to me just a few days ago. A friend of mine told me about this book she really thought I should read. So the other day I finally decided to buy the book. I went online and ordered it, and days later I received it in the mail, only to find out I ordered a miniature version!! What a shock. The book could almost be attached to my key chain! Haha. I couldn't believe it. Wait just a minuit, I'll get my camera and show you just how small this book is. It's ridiculous.









Tell me that's not crazy! I have a hard time really reading the book and taking it seriously. Oh well, next time I'll be sure to read the fine print!
Ok, I need to be going. I just got off work and my body's telling me it's time to be in bed.
Have a great day. Oh and congratulations on your pregency!!
