studying: the good, the bad, and the ugly.

take it from a starving, studying, stressed-out college student:  at byu, nursing school is hard.  {maybe it's hard other places, but just go with it.}  my first final is saturday.  i have studied approximately 12.2 hours so far for it, and will probably study about 20 more before i take the plunge.  is that extensive?  yes.  am i neurotic?  yes.  am i simply hoping to get through it all so that i can spend the entirety of my summer eating delicious food and reading wonderful books?  you bet.

so here it is, my list of the good, the bad, and the ugly of studying for finals.  {don't worry, i really do love being in college and learning "stuff".  but seriously, i need sunlight, strawberry shortcakemy saucy husband, and no more studying for awhile}

the good:



























a perfect excuse to eat whatever you want, whenever you want.  i need the sugar for studying, right?

the bad:



























piles and piles of books, and slides, and notes, and lectures.

the ugly:




























a quiet, stuffy library in which to stare at my notes mindlessly. {while it's warm outside and beautiful things are popping out all over the place!  perish the thought!}

but last night, john harman said to me:  
"i love you more than tasting... and smelling... and hearing... and thinking... and feeling... and seeing... and breathing..."

"well, then what would you have?"

"just love."

lots and lots of love.
