Hey Jen...just saying hi from work on this lovely Monday (holiday) morning.

Hi, Jen! Welcome Home! We were in Jersey Saturday into Sunday and saw all that very bizarre snow and wind. Nice to come back to, right?
I never had the chance to tell you your hair looked great! I can't wait to check out your trip report and to see pix.
I started a 100 day challenge on the main WISH board, in case you are interested in jumping in, though you look so fabulous, you are obviously doing just fine staying on track!

BTW -- congratulations on your awesome grades! You must have been so proud of yourself! :

 

[Blueeyes101817]

Cam-i just joined the 100 day challenge...i gained some weight while i was on the cruise and i really need to get back on track--i may need some help with that!

You were in jersey?!?! you should tell me next time you are around , maybe we can meet up sometime! i gotta tell you, it was horrible landing in the snow--what a change from 85 degree weather..and thanks for the comments on my hair and grades! youre so sweet!

 

[keenercam]

Jenn -- I would love to get together sometime. I grew up in Woodbury (south jersey), but we have very good friends in East Brunswick, Toms River, and West Windsor. We'll have to figure out whether we can meet for lunch sometime. Hopefully, your next semester will leave you some time to socialize! :

sounds good to me! Next semester, i think i am dropping a class and only taking 5 and working 13 hours a week--i made myself too stressed last semester taking 6 classes!!
I live in Burlington county, but used to live in Lawrenceville...My dad can give me directions to anywhere (im horrible with directions so dad has to simplfy them ) but id love to do lunch!!

 

[Blueeyes101817]

Warning--venting ahead!!

Every semester, i get really nervous--i dont know why, i usually get As and Bs, but i stress myself like crazy until about 2 weeks into the semester.
besides that, i am having a "feeling ugly day" haha..i hate when that happens, but i think that will motivate me to jump back on track starting tomorrow..i hope so at least! I joined the 100 day challenge again to try and get me to lose some of the weight that i gained while on the cruise...
On the "weird" side of my life--my ex and i have been talking alot more lately and its nice, but a little strange...Its also something that makes me think about alot of things that have been going on in my life...

Okay, im done with my venting--thanks for listening..if you made it this far!!!!!

 

[toystoryduo]

Hey Jen,

Sending some your way today... I hope you have a terrific Tuesday!

 

[kimwim8]

Hi Jen!! Just wanted to say hi and good luck today. You'll do great! I have confidence in you!!

And talking to the ex might be a good thing.....

 

[Blueeyes101817]

Thanks tracy and kim--well my classes are over and it doesnt seem like its going to be TOO bad so far..but that was only 2 classes!! But im not going to worry about it now--i cant change it..
but i did end up dropping one class (public speaking) so now im only taking 5--it was overwhelming taking 6 and working last semester.

I wanted to share a story with you guys--while on the cruise, we met a little girl who turned 16 while on board..she has cancer for the 3rd time and they are thinking she has about 6 months left to live--this girl was amazing and was on a make a wish trip with her parents and a nurse...My family got to really know her throughotu the trip, especially my brother and his friend...She couldnt do too much and they made it special for her by giving her "medals" they won and asking her to dance...We just found out today that she and her nurse are going to come visit us next weekend! Were all really looking forward to this and then my family will be going to see her for her sweet 16 party..if you all could, can you say some prayers for her--shes going into the dr this week to find out if the cancer has spread and how much time they believe she has left...thanks!
