howdy all.
i love to hear how all of you are doing. chris, your projects are awesome and you are going to be a killer graphic designer! kim, i can't believe that you are going to move down to the ER (sometimes)!!!! that's super cool. way to be versatile and find new ways to expand your knowledge base and resume.
as for me, life is somewhat back to normal. after ten days of hell (four exams and a quiz) i feel like i can breathe again. the fresh air in colorado helped refuel my soul (and feel like a person again) and seeing mitchell filled my heart with joy (sap tastic i know!). tests went aok... still a med student... and i'm finally feeling like i can survive the shit show that is medical school. colorado was awesome! it was fun from beginning to end. we got to hike, wander, go out to breakfast, drink wine, sleep lots, go to a great fancy restaurant, and even ski (in october!!!!). it was wonderful. my friend gretchen's family has a condo in frisco, co which is a sweet little mellow town surrounded by mountains. it was the most perfect mental health vacation ever!
seeing mitchell was of course wonderful, but of course left me a little broken hearted. chris, how have you been doing this long distance thing for so long?!?!?! it is truly killing me. we had such a great time together and i could be fully myself... i miss that here in omaha. i don't yet feel like i can be fully me around everyone here... we are still in the "getting to know you" phase a bit... even though it has been a few months. last night was a girls night for some of the ladies in my class and i finally began to open up a bit more. it was super fun.
i'll be in seattle for a week over thanksgiving (the 24th through th 1st) and again for christmas (the 27th-2nd) and i hope to make it down to portland on at least one of the trips. if anyone wants to take a road trip to seattle too, i would LOVE to see you!!!
i hope everyone is doing great! Love you!

I'm glad you and Mitchell had a great weekend! Sounds awesome! I will prob be up in Olympia Thanksgiving weekend, so it wouldn't be too difficult to skadattle up north later that weekend for a rendezvous. Unfortunately I work the weekend that is Christmas, but I be down in Portland the days you're in town. I would love love love to see you! Ashley, what are your Holiday plans??
ReplyDeleteHey Em!! Soo good to hear from you! I'm glad you are doing well, and CO sounded like it was exactly what you needed! Question: did you and Mitchell go to Honduras? I couldn't remember and a friend of mine is going there in Dec and just wanted some recommendations on places to stay and things to do. So, if you did end up stopping there on your little adventure, any quick info would be awesome :)
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I'm coming home the Tues before Thanksgiving. I have no plans for Tues night, Thurs I am doing a run at the zoo with my sis and mom, and then Fri-Sun is slightly free. My other thought is that I am coming home on the 19th of December for Christmas vacation, what are everyone's plans around that time? And what are you all doing for New Years?? Brent and I are thinking of maybe renting a place up in Tahoe with a bunch of (yet unknown) friends. Let me know if any of you would be interested...
Ok, back to studying. Midterm on Mon. Life is so eventful right now!
Hugs and kisses!!
