"Four like the number?"

It's movies under the star on this Sunday night of welcome week! 



We're watching Divergent! I love this movie mostly for the fact that the audience is taught that if a girl says no, you honor that (in terms of relationships) as well as a strong willed female hero! 


Popcorn, ice cream, and drinks. Great way to start the week!

Helloooooo, senior year!


So happy to be home tonight! Unfortunately my window will not give me this view of the tower as I am on the other side of senior housing in Doyle but I am ecstatic nonetheless. If you're stopping by or moving in soon, get out your hard hats--we're a campus on the growing end this year with expansions galore everywhere. Don't worry, we're still gonna be a beautiful campus full of women ready to take on the world. Oh yeah, and it's senior year! Can it get any better? Our own rooms in Doyle as seniors?! Okay I'll stop now. 

But seriously...can you believe it? Graduation is around the corner. And so is the NCLEX. Follow me this year to see not only the life of a Notre Dame woman but as a senior nursing major in our very first graduating class for the entry level program. This is gonna be a great year!

Welcome to the future of Notre Dame!

It's orientation time!


Welcome to NDMU's class of 2018! I decided to stop by after my shift to orientation tonight! I can't wait to have these girls on campus in the fall.

Woohoo gators! 



Look at my little Wendi all grown up as an OL! 

And my little Sam!

A summer of new beginnings

Happy summer ladies! 

I know I have been MIA all spring semester but it really was a hectic end to the year. I survived my first year of nursing school and have moved on to a nursing internship (most of my buddies in nursing did too! We're at UMMC, JHB, MUMH, UMSJMC, UMUCMC, the VA...we're all over the place!) I am spending my summer and then my last year of nursing school in the M/SICU department. It's been an exciting start to my summer!

Haha I call this "the locker shot" because I was thinking about house, Greys anatomy, Hawthorne RN, three rivers, and all the medical dramas while I was sitting on a bench in the locker room after a fantastic 12.5h shift. 

...and yet some things never change. I am back on campus for a class, Women in Islam, for my religious studies minor. After having such a tough semester the last thing I want to do is worry about another class so thankful this is only for 5 weeks. And knowing me, I'd rather be posting on here than writing my research paper...whoops. Lol oh well, it's been a month since I got on here anyway. 

Wish me luck and hopefully ill be on here more often. 

If you've been following my blog, can you believe I'll be a senior in the fall?! Crazy how time flies...
