School Supplies Anyone??

Found these absolutely amazing hand made "school" supplies on a blog I read. There are also notebooks, pencils and those awesome pink pearl erasers!

This just made my day! Practical for class.. I think so!

For the Love of the Game

Or in this case.. Class // For the Love of the Class

Last week concluded my 4th week of classes and all I can say is AMAZING! I've had 2 of my 3 classes so far and both have been pretty much the bomb!

I did not think that I would be able to feel this way about a lecture class, but it’s happened /// 
This ex-art student loves sitting in lectures, taking notes and being involved in discussion. 


**(Oh and I love being early on assignments and readings!!)

What is this amazing life changing class/classes?
//// Intro. to International Development //// 
//// History of the World Christian movement //// 

The more I think about it I realize that not only IS the subject matter really interesting, but the professor are interesting.

They really bring it to life!

I love grad school! I don’t even mind that the next 3 weeks I have no weekends because I have classes!

For the love of the class.. right? Huzzah! 
(I have no clue where I got the expression from but I think it might be from my friend Josi)

Life as of Late

I realize it's been a decade (or a couple months) since I have posted. Honestly, I kind of forgot about blogging. 


Life has been a tiny bit hectic. Since classes started (and the month before, because I'm a nerd and like to get a head start) I feel like I have not had a moment to relax, sit down, and breath..


Today I was sitting in my office, looking out the window (wishing I was outside), and I really felt the urge to blog.


Nothing much to report.


\\ Things I'm currently obsessed about \\


\\ Excercising \\ Zumba + Turbo Kick = One Happy Nem. I really enjoy the two group exercise classes that I have joined. Although I have no rhythm in Zumba, I think I'm pretty decent in Turbo Kick. Both are definitely great stress relievers and you feel great after them. (Average calories burned in 1 hour class :: 600-1000, That's reason enough!)


\\ Coke \\ The coke itch is back. When we went to Thailand, I had a vast array for drinks to pick from, mainly FRESH fruit juices, and I lost my craving for soda. Unfortunately, it came back. Oh coke, You are my vice!


\\ Oliver \\ I'm always obsessed with Oli, but he just switched from night to day shift and it's been great to have him home at night. More time together = One SUPER Happy Nem. (Hopefully he doesn't get sick of me)


My desk. Yes it's a mess.. I was too busy looking out the window!
Can you spot the Laker's mug?
