STRESS

So I have decided that I am officially stressed out. This next week is going to be insane. Monday as you know, I get my stitches out of my mouth. I actually lost one last night - scared me to death! I iext my mom at like 10:30... and any one who knows her knows you do not do that. lol.

Before I head to Stillwater to get that done I think I'm going to head to Shawnee to do that extra blood work. I want to get it over with. :/ Hopefully I can grab some lunch at Shawnee, hint hint Kelly!

Tuesday I'm reserving for GMAT studying. The test is Wednesday and I really don't think I will get the 550. I know a 550 isn't a super hard score to get, but I just do not have the time nor the mental resources to put forth the effort needed. I talked to guy in my same boat and he's not taking it again until Italy. He also knows a girl last year who didn't ever get the 550 so I hope they won't reject me or make me take it a million times. I know that's a lot of hear say, but a girl can hope and at $250 a pop I really can't afford to take it any more. I think this is my main source of stress right now. Everything else will come later.

I leave for my road trip to Houston right I finish the test Wednesday. My dad is meeting me in the city then we're gonna drive drive drive. He did remind me that after this week the only thing I'll have left is moving, packing what I'm taking, and getting my financial aid in order. Oh, and also planning all my going away parties. :) For the record, there is going to be one in Holdenville for sure and hopefully one in the city.... GET EXCITED!

One of my friends is coming over with a post-its to claim my stuff for a year so if you want any momentos of me or just need some stuff for your place until you get off your ass and buy it for yourself hit me up!

Wow, I guess it really does help to right all this stuff down. Maybe I'll try it more often. :-) Ta ta for now!!

PS - I would really like a more personalized backdrop template thing, but have not succeeded in finding one. Suggestions?

First Blog!

This is my first blog, so hello. I'm Sara. I started to this to let everyone stay up-to-date with my life. As of September 9, I am moving to Asolo, Italy to get my MBA. I'm really excited but SO overwhelmed with all the applications and paperwork and other things involved with the whole process. So if I've been a lil cranky - I'm sorry.

I have been frantically trying to get ready for my big adventure. The last week has been completely devoted to getting medically ready. I had my wisdom teeth cut out Monday (6 stitches in all), the eye doctor Tuesday (I have to get glasses and contacts), the gyno Wednesday (I won't give you any details ;o) ), and I had blood work Thursday. I am exhausted, and I still have to get cream for my ezcema (sp?), a tetanus shot, and do more blood work. Apparently my thyroid is a little abnormal. I'll keep everyone posted on that. As someone said today - I'm like a sick puppy having to go to the vet all the time. I guess that's what I get for never going to the doctor!

This next week I will be taking the GMAT and I have to score a 550. I hope I'm not too rusty! I will also be going to the dentist AGAIN to get the stitches out. Oh and a road trip with my dad to Houston to turn in my VISA application. Turning the application in by hand seems to be the fastest way to acquire this elusive visa.

Well I guess this is all for now. I will try to update this pretty often so stay tuned!
