Updates Galore....

Ok, It's been a while and I have many things to update.

Let's start with Nursing school, I did not get accepted, I got wait-listed. I found out that I am in the top 30 on the wait list of 212. So, I guess that good news. The admissions office guy also said that usually 35-40 people get accepted off the waiting list, and I could find out anytime from this week all the way through a week before classes start. I have high hopes. I know that I'm going to be accepted to nursing school this term. I have no question! Actually, I have decided to take this summer off, I'm not going to take any classes at all. It's about time for a break! I have to stay positive.

Dad is being typed and matched for a possible bone marrow transplant. They are also typing his sister and brother now. We are hopeful that there is a match and he can go through with a transplant. Unfortunately we don't know much else right now, they'll educate us more as they have more results and we're sure we're going to head in that direction.

This weekend, my girlfriend and I had planned to meet downtown for the St. Patrick's Day parade and then we were going to see Gaelic Storm at the house of blues. In the meantime, I had met Dan. Due to the distance between us, we do a lot of meeting. I asked him if he's like to join us for the St. Patty's festivities, he said sure. So, we all took three different trains into the city. We booked a hotel room and had a day. The concert was wonderful, so much fun. The parade, fun...I had never been to this parade before, it was a good time. Company was great as well. A little update, it was really cute, Dan asked me what the Claddaugh (sp?) meant, he saw it everywhere but didn't know. You see, he's not Irish at all, a fault I'm willing to look past. I was wearing my ring heart open, free to be taken, upside down. You all get it. After the explaination, he asked me why I was wearing my ring upside down. I asked him "what" He said, I think the dating period is over, will you be my girlfriend. Just you and me? My heart melted a little bit. I mean no one has ever officially asked if I'd be their girlfriend...you know? So, of course I agreed. :) We'll see what happens. He's polite, he had manners, he's kind and good to me. Still taking it slow, but we'll see what happens!

Thats all for now I have another anatomy test to study for!
