The Jist of my Spring Break :P

Howdy all! Yeah, I survived finals week … but barely! It was awful! My nursing test was not too bad, but my chemistry final was so hard! It took me hours to complete. But the good news is that I got A’s in all my classes. I am so happy about that!

My one week of Spring break was awesome but waaay too short! On Sabbath the 25th, Dad, Sharon and I went to Grants Pass. After church, a bunch of us went to Table Rock mountain. Now this place is pretty amazing. It takes about 35 minutes or so to hike to the top and once you get to the top of this mountain it is completely flat for about a mile or so in all directions. But all around the edges is this drop off that is about 300 down. When you walk to the edge you are looking directly down about 300 feet! It was unbelievable! Tony, and Eric (Les's son) and I had fun throwing rocks off the edge of the mountain and hearing them crash down below. Some of the rocks even exploded mid air. When you are looking off the edge the trees down below look so tiny! You could see for miles and miles too. It was really fun! Then after that, Tony took Sharon, and me go-kart racing and mini golfing, neither of which Sharon and I had ever done before. It was a blast. Les and Melissa came along too with their kids and that made it even more fun, especially when we were in the go-karts! Les was one pretty good driver, but we did manage to swipe him once. ha :P Laura was wicked in hers as she just stopped directly in front of us, and we had no choice but to plow into her, spinning her around and into the edge of the track. That was funny. haha
On thursday Tony took sharon and me to Mt Ashland for snowboarding. Well.... hmmm.. That was challenging but oh so much fun! Sharon couldnt ever really stand up, and so that was frustrating for her. I felt sorry for her. She spent a lot of time in the lodge. lol I was rather stubborn and figured it out. I never got good enough to go beyond the bunny hill, but I did manage to go down the hill with only falling down twice. :p It was soooooooooooo much fun. I can hardly wait to go again! wooo hoooo! :D
On April 1 Tony came up here, and we went hiking at Brice Creek. That was really fun, as I havent been there for a while. We went Lower Trestle Creek Falls. It was pretty this time since it has been raining so much lately. It was great weather, even though it did rain on and off some but it didnt get us very wet since we were under the trees. :P
The other big news is that during Spring Break i got my provisional acceptance into Southern Adventist University 's BSN program!!!!!!! I am sooooooooo excited!
I am back in school now. :( I am so burned out this term! lol I got to drop Chem 106 at the end of this last week but had to add research writing last Friday. So, now I am a week behind in the writing class. :O So that should be interesting. So I am only taking 12 credits this term, which SHOULD be better than last term. lol We shall see...
Ok, I think that is it for now... I shall update this laterz
