Weddings!

It seems like all of my friends are getting married! wow! What a weekend event this wedding was!!

I traveled to Ohio this weekend to attend a friends wedding. He married a woman from India. 350 family members and friends came from India to the event!! Unbelievable!! There were about 500 guests total at this wedding!

They had a Christian ceremony and an Indian ceremony! The Indian ceremony was very ritualistic. It truly was like walking into the movie Aladdin! Where the groom comes in on the white elephant (only they used a white horse) and there is a band that plays and lots of dancing and gifts. It was a wonderful event!

Once I flew back into St. Louis I was able to visit a friend who recently moved there. We had a wonderful time at Olive Garden catching up!

The term is nearing the end

Well- The term is nearing the end! It is time for me to really crack down on studying for my exams! I will begin tonight! I still have a bit of a project to finish up for my Foundations of Relationships class and then I will be done with projects for the term.

This weekend I went home for a bridal shower for one of my friends. It was a great time. I had been best friends with this girl since kindergarten! I had not seen her family in years, it was such a nice time to get together with them and catch up!

I also met up with a friend of mine for his 23rd birthday!! We too went to school together. We were reminiscing and talking about our 5th year reunion approaching next year! It is unreal that we are already this far along out of high school!

No more minor projects

I have finally finished all the minor and major projects due for this term. I feel completely relieved that I do not have to think about them any longer! I can now focus just on studying and my thesis.

I have made much progress on my thesis. I am almost finished with my proposal and will be turning it in shortly. I just have to round up a few more articles and I'm ready to take on the first rough draft! Yeah!

I am just looking over practicum options at the clinic today and trying to decide where I would like to be at this point. It is a hard decision but I think what will end up happening is whatever time fits in my schedule is where I will be placed. I am anxious and a bit excited to start seeing clients. This will be a great eye opener into what therapy will be like.

This weekend was pretty laid back for a change! Whew! I was able to work out a bit, work at both jobs, and go out to eat as well as accomplish a ton of homework. I am usually running around from here to there and am literally exhausted. But this weekend was different thank goodness. :)

Have a wonderful week!
