Well, I had three quizzes this week. I aced two of them and I got a B on the other. I am so happy. God Bless my study partner Katie. I would have NEVER gotten that second A if it wasn't for her.

We learned 5 new techniques this week in Massage Fundamentals. Life is just gonna SUCK for my family and friends this weekend when I practice on them.

Anatomy class is a little overwhelming. TONS and TONS of material covered in that class in such a short period of time. WOW! In one night, went through 6 layers of muscle in the back and their names and the muscles in the neck and their names. I am really diggin' it though. Understanding how the body works is so cool. Learned how to count the spine and the vertebrae by knowing what things to look for on the body that indicate which vertebrae you are near. It was kind of cool to feel the difference in different backs. The formation of the bones is so different.

Anyway, tonight is the easier night for me. Communication and Business Ethics class tonight.

OOOO also, MY MASSAGE TABLE CAME IN!! I am sooo psyched about all this shit!! LMAO... Get the idea I am excited about school???

Well talk to all of you soon.

Gotta love Norah Jones!

Out my window to see lights going dark
Your dark eyes don't haunt me

And then I wonder who I am
Without the warm touch of your hand

And then I wonder who I am
Without the warm touch of your hand
As I sit and watch the snow
Fallin' down

*********

Now I know I'm ready
Pour the night into a glass
Can I sip it slow and make it last?

Meet me outside above ground
I see you on your way
I'll be with you someday, someday

*********

Dark like the shady corner
Inside a violin
Hot like to burn my lips
I know I can't win
In the morning
Baby, in the afternoon

I try to quit you but I'm too weak
Waking up without you
I can hardly speak at all

You're gonna put me in an early grave
I know I'm your slave whenever you call

I can't stop myself from calling
Calling out your name
I can't stop myself from falling
Falling back again

**********

What am I to you

Tell me darling true

To me you are the sea, Vast as you can be

And deep the shade of blue

When your feeling low

To whom else do you go

See I'd cry if you hurt I'd give you my last shirt

because I love you so

When I look in your eyes

I can feel butterflies

I will love you when you're blue

But tell me darling true

What am I to you
