Exhausted.
This has been such a busy week. I started my third year last Thursday. Working two jobs already had me tired, but now I'm really missing my sleep!
Old Navy had the huge denim sale on Saturday, so I had to work all weekend to get the store ready for that and to recover it on Sunday.
I like my classes for the most part. It's definitely going to be a lot of work, but I feel like I'm really going to learn stuff this semester that I will use in my classroom. I'm taking South Carolina History (which I love,) a Geography class, an English class, a class on teaching Geography, a class on teaching English, and then another Education class on Tuesday nights.
I've been looking at the days ahead on my calender, and it doesn't look like one of my long naps is anywhere in my near future. All I can envision is plenty of Diet Coke and Starbucks.

Update on Mama
Mama had another surgery this morning. It is her second one since being diagnosed with breast cancer. Today, she had a lumpectomy and things went pretty well.
First thing this morning she had to take a pregnancy test (ha!), then go to another doctor's office for her to have something injected into the breast (some sort of tracking device), and then finally to the hospital for the operation.
They injected a dye to see which lymphnodes it attached to. From what the doctor told us afterwards, it never attached to a lymphnode (which is a good thing.) She did find some enlarged lymphnodes, so she removed those and they were negative for cancer cells. From what we can tell right now, the cancer hasn't spread outside of the milk duct. However, they will be doing more extensive tests on the lymphnodes they removed and could find some cancer cells there.
We are not out of the woods yet, but definitely received the best news we possibly could today. She will still have to have radiation (which we already knew from the first surgery) and may possibly have chemotherapy, but we will find all that out next week at her doctor's appointment.
So please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. Thanks so much.

Welcome!
Hey there. My name is Kristen Elisabeth and this is my first time doing a blog. I love reading others' blogs, whether it be about celebrity gossip, makeup, or themselves. I'm currently on Spring Break, and thought this would be a fun to way to share a little about myself and the things I'm passionate about.
To start off, I'll tell you a little about myself. I am nineteen years old and a sophomore at the University of South Carolina. I am going to school to be a middle school teacher, and I'm specializing in English and Social Studies. I have lived in South Carolina my whole life, and couldn't ask for a better place to live. It's the perfect place for me. I'm from a small town, but it's close enough to a big city where there's plenty of places to go and things to do.
One thing I'm extremely interested in is makeup. I've always been a girly girl, but I really got into cosmetics around 4 years ago. My favorite brand is MAC. People think I'm crazy for dropping 15 or 20 dollars on one item, but I think MAC really does have wonderful quality and you don't need a lot of product to make it show up, so it lasts forever. I used to swear by, and only use MAC, but now I'm starting to try out other brands. I am starting to build my AVON and NYX collections.
I hope you enjoy reading this, and I'm always open to comments and suggestions! Please feel
free to let me know if there's anything to you want to know!
