Sad news

So I wrote a while ago about my plans to go to Nauvoo on the church history tour. It was kinda going to be a last HURRAH as a BYUI student. Unfortunately the weather is abominable, so the school canceled my tour. If I would be here next semester I could go on the tour then, but unfortunately I graduate, so I am SOL as far as it goes with the school. I guess I'll have to make plans to go some other day. On a brighter note, because I thought I was going to be gone this weekend I worked my but off all week to get as far ahead on my homework as I could, so now I can't say I am completely caught up, but as far as assignments go, I have one 1 page paper, four 4 page papers and one 8 page paper, and three quizes to go for the one class, and a powerpoint to assemble, post and discuss for my other class(nursing that is). Also a ton of reading to do in the bible. I need to read the last five chapters in Leviticus, I need to have Numbers read by next Thursday, and I need to read my student manual on the OT. Also I have a chapter on Islam to read and some exerpts from the Q'uran to read as well.
I also only have three more weeks until graduation. I graduate Friday April 10th. The ceremony is at 9 in the morning I think, then there is another at 11, and then I'll be done with my bachelors. What will I do next?
I've been looking for jobs, and that has been an interesting search. I can only pray that I'll be able to find one that is willing to work with me.
I have plans to go ballrooom dancing with a friend this evening. It could be very entertaining for me to learn how to ballroom dance. I'll figure it out somehow.
I guess one thing good about graduating is that I can act like a dork and not care, 'cause I probably won't ever see any of the people who see me acting like a dork ever again! : ) Over the past semester I've been known to teach people dances in the strangest of places, like on the sidewalk going someplace, or while waiting for food. I've been known to do the Pate-pate walking across the parking lot(it's a tahitian dance, LOTS of hip). I have to say I have had so much fun this past semester. I am looking forward to what life will bring, but I am also so sad to be leaving.
But it is time for me to get back to searching for jobs. So, if any of you who read this blog hear anything about a Med-Surg Nursing Job in Idaho, let me know!

Really quick update

Well, school has been flying, and I have had a blast in my sewing and dance classes, and my water aerobics class haas been pretty fun too. I love my religion classes and because of those, my favorite days are tuesday and thursday because I get a double dose of religion class. : ) The sun is shining britely, and the days have been warm (ie 40s) the snow is staring to melt and the gound is muddy and the sidewalks are puddled. I love spring. (SARCASM DRIPPING) What I can't figure out is why my knees hurt. Not the "a storm is coming" ache, but the this knee has been in the wrong position for two long and now it won't bear weight well pain. It hurts to walk! I am really not looking forward to the stoll across campus today. On the lighter side, I have my information meeting for Nauvoo next thursday, and I am soooooo excited to get to go to Nauvoo! I need to do my nursing homework, but I have been having a hard time making myself do it. I guess it is bad when all other homework is more fun that the homework for you major. : ( I guess it is probably time for me to be done with school, though I just don't want the semester to end. I think I am going to miss school. I've been applying to jobs, and I have had an interview, but I don't know if I got the job and I should find out today, tomorrow or monday. I hope I got it, but if not I'll just have to widen my search for a job. : ( Time to limp up to the Taylor. ; )
