quick update

Just a quick update...

Spanish test (from forever ago): I got an 88.75%, which is almost an A... I thought I failed so that is good
Spanish Oral exam (this morning): I totally aced it!
Wedding (last weekend): It was great, I did not stumble, and projected my voice loud enough for all 200 people to hear.
After the wedding: oh boy, there is no short update on this. I got sooooo drunk! I NEVER drink beer, and I did 4 keg stands. LOL, I was totally wasted. Photos soon to come, and perhaps even a video clip of a keg stand... maybe!
Easter Sunday: WOW, what a good day! I went to my Aunt's house, rode around the ponds on a paddle boat, rode horses (monto a caballos) bought a kayak (I am sooo excited, I will pick it up at the end of this semester, as it is in Daytona) ate great food
I tweeked my knee out again this weekend. Status: not great, but not terrible either. I went to the doc yesterday, and she sent me for x-rays. I don't think they are going to find anything wrong with the bones... I am sure it is tissue related. So, alas I am back in a knee brace ... again... HUGE bummer, I was supposed to go horse back riding tonight, and now I can't. I was majorly bummed out. But it could be a lot worse, I just thank the Lord that I can walk~ that I am not stuck in a chair... I can deal with a little knee pain.
I bought this spanish cd, Shakira Donde estan las ladrones... and have been listening to it now for over a week. I am picking out more and more words, and can even sing along to some of the lyrics, though I am not always sure what I am singing. LOL! I am trying so damned hard to learn spanish, and well, it is hard!
hmmmmm... I don't think anything else is happening right now.

I will have to update more later as we have been slammed at work, and I have been one busy woman. Finals week is fast approaching, I have a psych test next wednesday, and then one week to study for my Spanish final. So I may continue to be scarce for a while.

Thoughts for the day: Love the moment, and the energy of that moment will spread beyond all boundaries. ~ Corita Kent

and my favorite today: If your ship doesn't come in, swim out to it! ~Jonathan Winters

Factoids: A chameleon's tongue is twice the length of its body.

Bet you didn't know that: A lump of pure gold the size of a matchbox can be flattened into a sheet the size of a tennis court.

Espanol: La Comida Italiana es mi favorita. Italian food is my favorite. Prefiero viajar en avion, porque es muy rapido. I prefer to travel by plane because it is very fast. ?Donde quieres vivir cuando terminas la escuela? where do you want to live when you finish school.
