Mom’s cooking/Family dinner every night
Summer time free from school/work (should have been a teacher…)
Recess
Good cartoons like the Smurfs & TV shows like Fraggle Rock (!) and the TGIF line-up
Wanting to grow up
Swinging on the monkey bars without being able to touch the ground
Playing outside ‘til dark with my best friend down the street
Sneaking out
Pool Parties (no one has them anymore!)
Show Choir and School Musicals (I know I’m a nerd!)
Feeling invincible because I could ride my bike without needing the handlebars
Church van road trips!
The glorious imaginary games I used to come up with & could never think of now
Lipsmacker’s Strawberry Lipgloss (it really was the best!)
Real toys in the cereal box
Friday night football games with my AHS friends
Spontaneous movie marathons
Dance class (all that jazz!)
Church plays and Sunday morning skits
Staying up ‘til 4 a.m. and waking up at 8 a.m. feeling well-rested
First crush and first kisses and those things that always made me so nervous because I didn't know anything about how to act...awkward but awesome at the same time....
Spaghetti Sundays with the entire Cook family
Weekday afternoon naps
The hardest decision to make was what flavor Popsicle I would eat after dinner
I think most of all I miss not comprehending responsibility and it being okay...now it's all about responsibilities.
Oh to be young....good times....good times......

Fashionably Late
So, I don't really follow blogging closely, but it looked like fun so why not join in? Although, I'm a little late boarding the blogging train, so I hope it's not too late.
Here I am, supposed to be diligently working on my Psychopathology presentation and instead I am starting a blog...oh how I love procrastination!
It's snowing/sleeting outside. Nice! Of course, it's supposed to be like 60 on Saturday so high five to my sinuses on that one.
I didn't have to work today and I went home at 1 yesterday. So far, it's been a nice week, minus the preparation for my presentation in class.
This class is going to be the end of my perfect "A" status so far in Grad School...super. Just as I thought I might make it through without a hitch, I get stuck with a professor who can't possibly speak the same language I do because I sure don't understand a word that comes out of her mouth. You want me to do what? by when?! where do I find it? huh? Umm....okay sure whatever you say, maybe I'll get lucky and find a translation for crazy. And why make a syllabus if you don't even want me to follow it? Yeesh, this professor could claim her own disorder in the DSM-IV-TR (that's the Psych Bible in case you didn't know).
I'm being pessimistic, let's go ahead and blame that on the stress. Of course, it might help if I didn't procrastinate, but I'll have to give that up later.
I made some delicious Scotcharoos today! Oh my goodness, they are the best batch I've made so far! If you don't know what a Scotcharoo is....don't worry it's alcohol free (for now anyway, haha). It's peanut butter Rice Krispy's with a chocolate/butterscotch topping. If you are real nice to me, I'll make you some! They are the best! I didn't know what else to do today, so I made these and they make the world a better place (or at least my world).
Okay, well, enough for today, I better get back to preparing my 7 minute presentation on whether Debriefing Trauma Survivors is Helpful or Harmful.......
I am officially locking myself in the guest room in my house and not coming out until I have my presentation done...or when Scrubs comes on...whichever comes first.
