Senior year - in college!

So, it's finally come. My senior year at a university. Thank the Lord Jesus :)

I'm taking some... interesting... classes this semester. I'm particularly excited about my horticulture class. Next week we get to plant tree seedlings (apple tree)!! I'm also taking a Scandinavian Lit class which I am going to love. We get to write our own fairytale :) And, because I have a strong Danish background, I feel like I'm learning just a little bit more about what my ancestors believed, etc.

I'm also taking a student teaching course (uhg i hate that class) and spanish 1003 (boooo).

As for my life/health... things are okay. Matt's doing well. I've been wearing an event (heart) monitor so that hasn't been fun. Tomorrow I get an ultra sound of my heart to see why it's so sad :(

01 11 010

January 2010. Looks like binary code: 01 01 010, 01 10 010, 01 11 010. Dates in January :) Weirdddd.

So I have a new found cousin who briefly knows one of the Ghost Hunters. It makes me smile a little to know I share interests with a family member who I hardly know. It makes me happy to think that our common genes cause us to like the same things.

LOL. That sounds weird. I know. But I like the idea of being connected. Connections are everything in this world. We can't survive if we don't connect with people.

So the bouts of nightmares have returned to me once more. Last night's was a particularly long drawn out nightmare. The worst part was when I had to run through an old catacomb full of human remains while being chased by a half decomposing, slimy, one eyed giant. My friend and I (in the dream) decided to hide in a bathroom stall in the girls bathroom. I had the bright idea to stand on the toilet so that if the monster looked under the doors he'd only see on set of feet. Unfortunately that plan didn't work out so well and he ended up towering over the stalls. He tried to creep up on me, but his decomposition slime sludged off of his face/mouth and onto my clothing. We got out of the stall and my friend ran off to finish a very important (world saving) task while I stabbed the monster... 1st I sliced his neck. Then stabbed it. Then I stabbed his heart. Then his chest. Then his stomach. It was gross. His blood spurted everywhere and he refused to die. He could still chase me after I'd stabbed him all those times and he was trying to eat my face! So I stabbed him over and over and over and over and over until he stopped moving.

Then I got chased by a spider like human corpse.

And that was only a 10 second portion of my nightmare. There were other not so great events going on in my sleep :/
