A whole new me

Okay, so not really a whole new me. But different since I haven't posted on this since before my 21st birthday and I am almost 6 months past my 22nd. I'm trying to decide why I still have a blog. I haven't posted on it since February of 2011. So let's see... people who are reading this already know me most likely.
As you know, I am going to graduate school at GU here in Spokane for Community Counseling. I actually start TUESDAY! I am equally excited and nervous because I know it will be challenging, emotional, and a lot of work. But I also know it is going to be one of the most rewarding experiences of my life!

So since May I have: graduated, went to Ireland/Northern Ireland, went camping, watched the dogs swim and play in the river a lot, went to an IMAX movie (batman!), moved across the country with two uhauls/dogs/vehicles, started a new job, did orientation for grad school, had our three year anniversary, ate too much food, joined a gym, got a new computer, got my jeep fixed, got my eyebrows reshaped, took my dogs to get 'posh paws' at Petco, ate some of the best fruit I've ever had, did some salsa dancing, partied at a gay club, went shopping, bought curtains and a sweet rug, moved Drew back to KS =( [just for the semester, tho], surprised my family by coming home for a couple days, drove back across the US, zip lined over a mountain canyon, rode an alpine coaster down a mountain, went to an off leash dog park and got dragged two feet by my dogs resulting in 'road rash' [interesting story], watched pretty much every episode of Nip/Tuck, flew back to WA from KS, put Tyson on a diet, walked across the bridge over Spokane Falls, hiked around a national (or maybe state) park, got up at 5-5:20 am almost every single day =O... annnnd plenty more.

So yes, I have had a great summer. I am ready to start grad school! I don't know anyone here (besides D & R and Erin and her little boys) and I have no friends so hopefully I will make friends in school. Not that I will have time to have a social life outside of school and school functions, anyway... haha.
And maybe I will resurrect this blog. Or maybe I will post on it once a year.

Who knows.
