Hello there strangers! It's been an awful long time AGAIN since my last blog post! 2nd semester has hit me pretty hard but not as crazy as last semester... But still it's been awhile! Well to make things up, not a lot really has happened since I blogged! Get ready for some pictures!!!
First of all, I got a pretty sweet late birthday present from the hubster! My very own pretty Macbook. It's an older version but hey, I've been wanting this model and color for a really long time. So I am very happy about it! :)
Then we decided to surprise my family! It was super fun!
Well, there you have it! I shall be blogging soon too about my adventures in Moab once I get some pictures from the grandparents since we went river rafting and we forgot to bring our own camera! More details to come! :) Ciao!

Still breathing and surviving + a baby in the family!
So far, I have made it through my first 2 weeks of hygiene school and honestly, it was rough. Our professors are great! Some are intimidating and some will make you laugh your head off. I'm not going to lie that it has been a stressful 2 weeks. And yes, I have already shed some tears from the stress and panic of not being able to get any homework or reading done. It's been one heck of a ride so far. A lot of memorization, lots of homework, and LOTS of studying. Holy caboodle!!! I was crying to Curt one night and asked him why I even joined this program and that I don't think I could ever do it. Right now, we are taking 9 classes summing up to 18-19 credits. Aaaahhhh!!!! One thing that stuck in my head was that one of professors told us that we already got through the hardest part.. Getting accepted in the program! I mean, I get what he was saying just because he knew that we were already stressing out about our classes, but we are the lucky ones of getting accepted and getting in. If they didn't see us having the potential of getting through this extensive and accelerated program, we would not be in our chairs in class right now. Those words of wisdom definitely made me feel a lot better about myself. I'm also glad that I met and made a few friends already. Our class is pretty awesome. Anyway, it's our 4-day weekend coz of the holiday. Thank goodness!!! It's nice having a break.. we totally needed it.
These are the classes that I am taking this semester:
- Morphology
- Radiology & Radiology Lab
- Head and Neck Anatomy
- Pre-Clinic Theory & Pre-Clinic Lab
- Embryology and Histology
- Preventive Dentistry
- Spanish
Here is my lovely schedule!!!
Also, one lovely thing happened last week!!! My sis-in-law Holly had her baby!!! She is so adorable!!! Curt and I were so happy when we finally got the message at around 2:30 am that she was born. Welcome to world Ivy Lynn Simmonds. We love you!!!
Have a great holiday weekend everyone!!! Be safe!!! xoxoxo

Back to life...
Wow! It's been forever since my last posting. Life has been busier than ever. I've got two jobs right now: One at Lime Ricki Swimwear and the other is at Massage Envy. Needless to say, I enjoy working at both places. It kinda balances life for me I think haha! And yes, I am a workaholic. I hardly see my sweet hubby anymore coz I work too much! LOL! So, since it's the weekend and it's my only time to wind down a bit from my busy schedule, I decided to sit down, open my laptop and blog about what has happened in the past few weeks. Anyway, if you were wondering where I was.. I have been on an awesome cruise vacation with my hubby and his family. It was great!! It was a 4-day excursion from Long Beach, to Catalina Island, and to Ensenada, Mexico. We did a bunch of fun stuff. From eating tons of food, to parasailing, to surfing, and to cuddling with a cute lion cub!! I wished it never ended even though I got sea-sick during the last part of it. Besides, who doesn't want to live the life of just vacationing all the time? Haha! It was also nice to see my family again back home in California. The feeling of being home is just awesome even though I nearly die every time we visit coz they have cats and I am deadly allergic to them. But it was worth it because both the Haigh, O'Dell, and Buckmiller families got together for a great BBQ for a nice Father's Day celebration! Well, below are just some pictures to enjoy! : )
