At last... At last... Spring is about here!

Apparently I have been slacking on reading the blog (and in keeping in touch!), because I just read from MR's post on and learned A LOT!

Amy, I am so glad that you found those 3 volunteer jobs. I think it is perfect that you found one involving clothes, because you finally have a place that will accept your nice stuff (since Plato's closet was lame).
Back to business... I will let you know if Eric's family has an extra Bengals/Reds tickets, because normally their extras just go to waste.

As for the "1806 big girl" job issue. I know that since you guys have graduated from college, you want to have big girl jobs. And I know you might find me foolish for saying this. But honestly, maybe it's nice to not have that right now... It can push you closer to grad school which can open up more opportunities, give you time (which you might not have had) to help the community, and give you time to enjoy life before you have to buckle down. Basically, I just want to make sure that as a house, we are stepping back and taking the time to enjoy life, as transient as it might be.

LP I absolutely loved the statement in your blog about how I am graduating in June. I felt like you were bragging about you kid or something. I look up to you guys so much and for some reason that sentence made me feel really loved. thank you.

I'm sure you guys have been sitting on the edge of your seats wondering when I am going to finally expose the gushy details of my life. ; ) Well here goes... As many of you know, I moved in with Eric in Jan. and am subleasing my apartment. Eric got accepted into UMemphis and UT's PhD psychology program. After much consideration, he has decided to go to Memphis, so that will be our new home come late August. I am so so so excited for warmER weather all year round, and I think it will be a fun environment for us. The only bummer in the plan is that it is 7.5 hours from Cincinnati. I am confident that we will be making many trips back though. I believe we will be living there for about 5 years. I am currently working on getting my Tennessee licensure for nursing, and I am applying to Vanderbilt's Pediatric Nurse Practitioner program for this fall! I can live in Memphis and have a preceptor in Memphis and just take classes online. Dream come true! I would get my degree in a year, which means I would NEVER have to work in a hospital again! Instead, I can practice in a pediatrician's office!! Another dream come true! I am not sure that I will be accepted for this Fall though, because I am having to piece together my application last minute (by MArch 31st!) and I just visited with them March 5th. I am taking the GRE on March 31st--Erin I would appreciate any last minute advice haha!

And don't worry, if for some reason things fall through with Eric, I could still be in Vandy's program from Cincinnati.

Sorry if the above information seems like it was flung at you... I just feel so excited. And, unfortunately, I have like 7 essays to tend to to complete my application. BTW, Maria, thank you so much for the Origin's lotion and shower gel you got me last year. I am so in love with scent.

I hope you guys all enjoy the start of Spring, and I can't wait to see many of next weekend! Perhaps this will be the "BEST BIRTHDAY EVER PART 2!" haha just kidding... I am still trying to think of a fun, mature night on the town!

Oh, and please try to come back for my senior crawl!!!! LOVE YOU GUYS!

MJ
