Vacation over…back to work!
So I didn’t have time to post while I was on vacation. Samm and I had a blast though! We saw some movies, went to the zoo (I’ve been dying to go to the zoo haha), took a day trip up to Lake Ontario (only about 1/2 hour away from his school) and went to the beach, we hung out with his friends, did some cooking, shopping, dancing, and just had a really good time. I’m bummed to be back. Samm and I have been in a long distance relationship for a very long time. Even when we’re both home in MA we’re almost an hour away from each other. So we both are understandably very eager to have this distanced shortened (right now we’re SIX HOURS apart–ugh!). Probably another year. I get to see him in about a month though when he comes home to visit before his fall semester starts.
UPDATE: PICS POSTED
I have like 60+ pics just from the zoo. I wasn’t going to post them all here, but I posted a few of my favorites.

White Bengal Tiger–Our first exhibit!

Penguins! Coming out to say hello!

Samm being silly and cuddling up with the polar bears. I think they like him…

Monkey staring me down!
Other animals we saw: wallabies, leopards, meercats, jaguars, hyenas, wolves, vulchers, other birds, orangutans, different types of primates, rhinos, elephants, baboons, and much much more. It was a lot of fun!
Nothing too new on the nursing school front. I purchased the book Math for Clinical Practice that I need to go over the first 4 chapters to before school starts. It shouldn’t be too bad. Those chapters are decimals, fractions, and units of measure. So it really shouldn’t be too bad. I also received my CPR certification card in the mail. I will probably send a copy of that out to the nursing department at the end of the week.
Nothing too exciting…but I’ll keep you updated!!
~love always~
