Special Visitor!

This weekend wasn't just any old weekend...my friend Jackie came to visit! She goes to the University of Maryland and they haven't started school yet so she came to see me! I picked her up from the bus on Friday afternoon and we went to lunch at Zingermann's. It's a famous Ann Arbor deli that has been featured on several food network shows. Jackie got their famous reuban and I got a sandwich with turkey, cheese and avocado. Friday night we hung out in my room with my roommate Haley and some others stopped by too.

Jackie ate her Reuban before I could snap a picture but
it looked something like this!
 Saturday we were tired because we stayed up late so we watched Friends with Benefits. We've both seen it but it's just so good! I love JT and Mila Kunis! After the movie we decided that we had to go on a run together because Jackie has been my running partner for 4.5 years (we met each other on the first day of XC freshman year and we have been running together ever since). We went on the run that I wrote about last week here but we ran a bit further and found that it made a loop. Friday night we went out to dinner to a place called the Prickly Pear. We split some delicious fajitas, chips and salsa...and then a cupcake at the Cupcake Station.
Ready for dinner!
Sunday morning I had to drive her back to the bus stop and she was off to Maryland. I then went to a very long (like 2 hours) brunch at the cafeteria and started watching the football game. It was a great effort from the Ravens and they played really well but a missed field goal with just a few seconds left meant that we lost to the Patriots. I can't even believe it. I guess I'll be rooting for the 49ers tonight so theres at least 1 Harbaugh in the Superbowl!
Despite some great plays like this touchdown by Torrey
Smith in the 3rd Quarter, the Ravens came up short.
So now that I've effectively procrastinated for 3 days I have to go do some homework.

Who are you routing for in tonight's game?
Have you ever been to Zingermann's?

11 Things

So one of my favorite blogs Paleorunnergirl just did this post and I thought it would be fun! So here you go: 1. What is your favorite meal? You know…I really just love food. But these days I would have to say crab cakes and broccoli. 2. How many times have you been in love? Zero. 3. What is your Starbuck’s order? I used to work there so this is a very loaded question. Here are my top 5: -Tall soy no water chai light foam -Tall Americano in a Grande cup with extra room (I add 2% milk and equal myself) -Double tall soy latte light foam -Venti iced passion tea 6 shots sugar free vanilla, no classic light water light ice -Tall espresso frappacino, no frappucino roast skim milk no whip  You had no idea how loaded of a question that was! 4. Action/Comedy/Drama/ or Romantic Comedy? Romantic comedies all.the.way.  My favorite romcom. I like them all though! 5. What was your favorite TV show when you were a kid? When I was really little I liked Arthur. 6.

Whining While Working Out

Image
I know I haven't blogged in a while...I do think about it a lot but I haven't had anything exciting to say! I'm still just babysitting and working out. But working out is the key part...I have had some REALLY hard workouts. Sunday (mother's day) I went out intending to run for 70 minutes and by about 45 I thought I was going to die. I mean not really die but I thought about asking someone if I could borrow their phone so I could get a ride home. It. was. awful. I mean I guess this is true...but I was pathetic. Then Monday I reluctantly put on my running shoes but then I looked outside and it was raining and I just decided to do laundry instead. Tuesday I had an okay 40 minutes on the elliptical while watching Sex and the City (thanks for lending it to me Sara!). I also visited my aunt, uncle and 2 cousins so it was a nice day. Me with the newest addition to the family. Then today I decided I would do a hill workout. I ran about a mile to a field that

What you didn't know about nursing school

Image
So usually I do a Sunday post but I just didn't have time this weekend! I had an anatomy test at 9 on Monday morning so I basically spent all weekend studying (there was a little time spent watching the super bowl and relaxing with friends.) But since I have been spending so much time doing school work this semester I decided I would give you a glimpse into what it's like! First and foremost the nursing school is really disorganized so we have a Facebook group to keep us sane. Whether it's about anatomy, football tickets or getting a ride somewhere, if you have a question, you post it here for a guaranteed answer. There is also some shenanigans on the nursing Facebook page...a lot of posts like this: U Mich nursing students love cats...and memes And this: That's what happens when your major is almost all girls! Not only are we connected virtually but we have all of our classes together so we're together all the time!  We walk together Off to the
