…it must be love…

It has to be love, because I somehow stay over even when I know that he has to get up and leave for work by 6 a.m.

I hate early mornings!

i might be a quitter

August 13, 2009 at 8:24 pm (expectation, relationships, school)

Over the summer (even though the terms are drastically shortened), I decided to take 5 classes. It amounted to a little over 17 credit hours or something like that. Anyway, it was rough — so it’s no surprise that one class became incredibly impossible to pass — and that class was Statistics.

For starters, I should’ve never attempted to take this class online. It was fine for the first test, but by the second test it was clear that I was sinking fast.

Every other class that I had I did amazingly well in. A’s and B’s — but this class (because I was so bogged down and missed the drop date) I’m going to have to get an F in. I normally would cry at F’s. But you didn’t see me this afternoon as I was studying for the test getting a tension headache that I knew would turn into a migraine.

That’s basically when I quit and said it wasn’t worth it.

My school thankfully has a grade replacement policy so that when you retake a class that you failed, that F is replaced with whatever the new grade is — so my GPA hit will only be temporary. I’ll also make sure to take the class in person next time.

In other news, I’ve finally met a great guy. And he seems to be a keeper. The only thing that has been challenging has been his schedule. I’ve had friends that were in their residency (he’s a family medicine resident) and I guess I didn’t notice that their schedules were super hectic because at that time I actually worked at the hospital. Thankfully, this incredibly brutal rotation is almost over.

At any rate — I’m going to enjoy these last few weeks of summer (it’ll be a mini-vacation for me) before school starts up full-time again.

it’s been awhile

August 2, 2009 at 7:30 am (dating?, expectation, relationships)

So back on July 11th, I started writing this post. The funny part is that I never got as much as one word written. After Jimmy passed, I didn’t really know what to do with myself, so I poured myself into school work (I really wish that Jimmy could be here to see me graduate) and worked on letting go of a lot of the animosity I held towards my ex.

Most of the animosity is gone — I still wish he didn’t breathe, but that’s not a choice for me to make. N ow at this point, I wish he’d quit stalking me — because I see him everywhere. Everywhere he wouldn’t go when we were together, everywhere he said he hated it — and ironically, following me today (and then passing me) as I was leaving the guy-I’m-now-dating’s house. (There was absolutely no reason for my ex to be in that neighborhood AT ALL!).

So here are my updates:

  1. School is going amazingly well. I’ve held it together for longer than I anticipated and I am taking a statistics class online and not failing.
  2. I met a really wonderful guy. I’m cautious and apprehensive, but I really do believe he’s one of the good ones. His schedule though, leaves a lot to be desired. He’s a Family Practice Resident and his rotation for this month requires that he’s on call every four days.
  3. My best friend is in the process of buying house — if everything goes as planned and she ends up closing on the house *crossing my fingers* then we will be moving in to the house together and my rent will DRASTICALLY decrease!

There are probably plenty of things that have happened since I last opened this blog. But heck, these are the only things worth mentioning — and well, once school is over I can start focusing on writing more. Woohoo!
