2011

2011 was a year of growth and discovery for me. I truly believe it was an amazing year but also a very "in between" year. 

January

Went home for break then school started up, went on my boyfriend's fraternity's annual trip to Tahoe... NO one mention i was the only girl this year!! 20 guys- 1 Shelby. I least my boyfriend was the president so it wasn't took awkward- no sleeping on couches!

April & May 

Very little to tell, was taking anatomy so i spent most my time buried in a book. A few highlights include roommate turning 21 & Sorority Formal 

June & July

School out for the summer... i think... i took 2 classes over the summer! not so fun!

 Greene's Xmas Party

 

Bacon wrapped Cheese jalapeños

20 whole, fresh jalapeños
2 8-oz blocks of Chedder Cheese
1 to 2 pounds of bacon

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Place a wire rack on a baking sheet and set aside.
2. Cut the jalapeños in half, lengthwise. Remove the seeds and membranes. Stuff each jalapeño half with cream cheese. Wrap each jalapeño half with bacon. Secure with a toothpick.
3. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. If after 20 minutes the bacon doesn’t look brown enough, turn on the broiler for a couple of minutes to finish. Just keep a close eye so they don’t burn! Serve immediately or at room temperature.

YUMMMMMY!! 

Confessional Saturday -- i mean friday!

Confession Friday--- One day late OOPS =) linked up to Blonde Ambition

Start off with my worst first, when visiting my boyfriend's house (mind you its a 17 bedroom frat house) I know what ever the chief makes is gonna be “MAN FOOD” but the dinner last night was ----Waffles and Fried Chicken. I was dying to ask for veggies or fruits... but I wasn't about to be rude and ask. 

-After completing Registration for my last semester in college I figured out that really should haven't put off taking that GE history class sophomore year just to take major classes. Cheers to being down with my Major & Minor a semester before graduation

-I find myself thinking more about Packinggggggg to move (which isnt happen til may) than my finals of the week. Graduation stress is overcome me.

-Vacations of the year: vegas: 3 times this year Anywhere else: 0. to my credit I went different people every time & each one was to celebrate someone else birthday or graduation! But hey it was my VEGAS year.

-I bit my nails, by far the worst habit ever!!

Tonight I am meeting my best friend's new boyfriend and I keep thinking about how I should interrogate him. I am just protective lol. DOUBLE DATE --- showdown

Ciao

 

I blame Monday

Mondays are the best yet worst day of the week, you are fully rested and somewhat ready to get back to the grind but at the same time the mountain of work that Monday bring scariest outcome for me! Its the week before finals and as usually i had a great plan for Monday that turned into getting caught up from missed homework over the week and looking at all the news that is new!

Instead of working on a final paper & studying for finals as i should i am going to share a few things that amazed me this MONDAY!

off to continue my Job Hunt!!! i hate looking for a job but i need one desperately. this is so much harder than i remembered!  

December Fashion finds!

“How did it get so late so soon? Its night before its afternoon. December is here before its June. My goodness how the time has flewn. How did it get so late so soon?”- Dr. Seuss

December is upon us, what does that mean? Chill nights and lots of shopping in the city! I love the city this time of year! I am planning ice skating in union square so excited!!
