F-M-L

Timeline:
Oh my has time passed! Already the end of the semester! 2 out of 6 tests done and so far so good! Currently studying is taking up 70 % of my time. THE END.

Discussion:
Horse slaughter: banned in the US. but why? Especially since many owners now can not afford their horses and are choosing to let them loose and/or starve to death.

A spoonful of sugar-


timeline:
These weeks are going to be the end of me i swear. Classes are slow but sure. Sleep is .. lacking. This whole BS degree better pay off!
this weekend is full of Horse Observations in which i sit in a pasture and look at horses for 6 hours. tabeling for a spay /neuter clinic at the fair - and.. and... HAUNTED HOUSE TIME!

Discussion:
Have you heard of a thing called Good Search? You use it in place of Google and for every search they give "x" amount of monies to the charity you chose. At Feisty Acres- the cat rescue I work for- we get checks monthly! Highly recommend you use it:)

Future:
Have you ever been to northern florida? Well, after a recent search I am now obsessed with going to Florida Caverns State park. Yes, caves- caves where my nerdy self can see stalactites and stalagmites. Acid pools, bats and headlight oh my!

Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.

Roomies Heather (L) and Kayla (R) with Albert and Alberta
It is now the 7th week of classes and I feel as if we are on the 27th- The same thing every week.classes. volunteer. study. repeat. COLLEGE IS OVERRATED.

Mon Wed, Fri: 725am-1030am.ugh. I despise animal sciences for keeping all there classes in this time frame. My bed does too, it does not appreciate being jerked around pre-sun times.

Labs on Mon. and Thurs. Later in the day, but now your telling mother nature "rain on me while im out in the pasture!!"

Thurs AM: one class 9:35 am in a freezer- literally. Also hearing pigs get slaughtered. First thought- Bacon.

Tuesdays: Feisty Acres feline rescue where i pull blood, clean and get more war wounds on my limbs.
OR
Project Petsnip where i clean the surgery area and make sure cats dont suffocate when waking from spays and neuters. Thrilling.

Saturdays: FOOTBALL.Okay okay I admit I enjoy about 20 min of the game then i get distracted. Timmy Tebow does make my attention span a tad longer though.

Sundays: communion. tasty. wine tastier. donut after. thank you toasted coconut!

May I just say...


When you find one of these suckers on your car- you WILL shriek like a little girl.


They are pretty neat creatures though! They actually change color with their environment-

Like all dreamers, I mistook disenchantment for truth.

We asked Frank to get us a tasty and cool pizza, and this is what we were served!

Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none

So the past few days have been as hectic as 5:30 pm traffic. We are moving Frankie into the new apt for the '09-'10 school year. Oh what a feat. The first night our friend, Alex, comes over to help, and in the process he gets towed because he was parking close to the apt to pack stuff without a decal. $50.00 in change, and running after the the tow guy times 4, resulted in a freed car and a $150.00 savings. WHEW!
Next came the new guy moving into the old apt- total, and take this with out being offended, "Trekkie". I was waiting for him to show me one of these...
Thank gosh it didn't come down to such things because I might have just had to gone Chewbakka on his butt!

Then came the new apt with the leaking dishwasher, fist print hole in the door and squeaking mattress- FREAKIN GREAT.

Now it is time to prepare for the Francisco Family ( a whole 6 of them!) to come by tomorrow for the weekend- filled with moving, Busch gardens and, well, hopefully no more incidents, at least until Monday.

My idea is that there is music in the air, music all around us; the world is full of it, and you simply take as much as you require

House of Blues- Orlando Rocks! With Fall of Envy, Social Ghost, Afterglow Radio, Transmit Now and Clayton Senne !








The bowling alley is the poor man's country club.

Frankie and the " squat and release"
Chelsea and the " wiggly arm"
Frankie and the " perfection in a hole"

Preparing for what is to be a long night of french fries, tripping, and ball fondling.

Be it human or animal, touch is a life-giving thing. Has anyone ever had a stroke or a heart attack while cozied up with a pet? I doubt it.

ultra sounding in the dark
Tara hanging out with sick puppy # 10000000
Dog with dental disease- notice discoloration on tounge
Flushing another labs broken sutures
Who can deny a face like this?!

trip home from work.

There are no menial jobs, only menial attitudes.


Avimark- the program that i spent 80% of my time at work with.
Lovely pup that popped her sutures after her spay- WHAT A MESS!
5% of my work day- playing with blood samples. better then poop fa shore.

Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.


So its been over a month "OH ME GEE!" Ive been a bad bad blogger. I think I went out of the mood due to lack of enthusatic topics to blog about. So in the past 4 weeks i have.... 1. work, mundane, boring if i do another vaccine/ cleaning/ sweeping im going to shoot myself in the face work. It might be a better job if i actully had anyone to talk/relate/ make friends with. But once again I am the youngest of the bunch, and while eveyrone else is showing off pictures of their babies, talking about having babies or looking for men to make babies with- here I am the undergrad UF student with the "boyfriend" Frankie . 2. Managed to reduce my school debt by half. Quite a feat. And proud of it. 3. Went on a trip to Cocoa Beach where the waves dissappointed us and ended up with a nice red glow about me. Fishing cancelled due to feels -like- 110 degree weather. Thank ;you Florida. Thank you and your UV rays. 4.Indulged in the movie called "The Hangover" what happens in vegas stays in vegas. The end. And how funny that this HUGE movie complex we go to has about 5 people in its area and thats it! We took advantage of this and decieded to race down the walkways.( dont hate, you know you would too!) 5. Went to a fantabulous concert at the House of Blues in downtown disney. If youve never gone i quite reccommend it- amazing detail and hey who doesnt get excited over $3.00 sodas?! Next Friday will commence my 21st bday bash where I will be left alone in Tampa with no friends, boyfriend or family due to other reasons. This leaves me with one less interesting tale to tell my children in my latter years. I wont lie, I am quite dissappointed. So to top it off I even promise to download my camera full of pictures for all to view in the next two days. PROMISE!
