It's gonna be a long semester.

I think I'm going to do a residency in Atlanta after I graduate. Residencies are optional for optometry students. They pay very little and last a year, but you get more experience and higher pay when you're done than a person who didn't do a residency. There are so many places in Atlanta that take residents. Sounds like a good idea to me! I'm going for it!

Lol. I feel like an old lady learning how to use the Internet/a computer for the first time. Sheesh. 
Ooh shoot. I now have access to my phone's camera roll on my blog. Dun dun dun! It's going down! Instagram and my blog are about to be live!!! #staytuned

What?!? I'll beat the whole Internet up if I have to ;) :c
I'm sad. Missing my boo thang :(

Ok, good night!
And...One more year I think and this will officially be my longest relationship. I better get a ring with this one...I'm so tired of putting in all this work/time/effort for nothing. I'm ready for my family dammit!
And...4 years later and I still love the feel of my tiny hands in his <3
And...I'm taking this new medication and its been giving me restless leg syndrome. I jitter my leg so bad. I always did it before, but now it's just awful. I can't help myself. I do it while sitting down AND while sleeping. It's so bad, my boyfriend will get up and move away from me cause the shaking annoys the hell out of him. Lol. Oh well. 
And...can I just say that after sleeping with my boyfriend in his bed for almost three weeks in Atlanta then having to sleep alone in my bed in Memphis is SOO hard those first few nights back :( Good night *rocks self to sleep*
With that, I'm going to bed. Holla!
So I definitely want to do one extern rotation in New Mexico...but where to do the other??? I'm thinking either Colorado, Florida, Atlanta, New York City, or Alaska. I have about 7 months to decide!! I get to live in these two places for 4 months. We've been reminded to choose a place where we may want to end up working. One of the three rotations has to be in Memphis :((((( Come on fourth year!!! I can't wait. And...I'll start seeing real patients this May. In five months!!!!! I'm nervous and excited at the same time. I'll be examining and diagnosing and prescribing. I'm scared! But I got this. Just gotta make it through this semester. Didn't I say big things were gonna happen for me in 2014?? The last full year in my 20s :( I so can't wait for Haiti. I'm so happy. I love optometry school. I made the right choice :))))
Did I mention that Robert Downey, Jr. is my #2 boo now, followed by James Franco? Jason Momoa isn't even on the list anymore. I was reminded that my boos are all (more like 95%) white guys. I blame the fact that there aren't a lot of young black celebrities. The ones that are around are overrated! Interestingly, I've never dated outside of my race. Maybe in another life. 
My boyfriend told me long nails and nail polish aren't for me. I can't keep either for long. He's right. I need to keep my nails clipped and stick with clear polish. Fine with me. 
So I was 'honey blonde' my last couple of years in high school. I've decided to go red for 2014 :) The whole thing isn't red, just a section in the front. May end up doing the whole thing if I love it. It's cute. I think I do love it. Besides, who wouldn't want a red fro?
Tomorrow is a snow day so no school on our first day back from winter break! I'm so bored so I'll probably blog a few times before I turn in for the night. 
Back in Memphis. Time to grind. I have big things happening for me in 2014.  Happy new year! :)
