As of 10:30am Friday morning, I am completely done with my undergraduate degree!  It hasn't fully set in yet, but I'm still excited!  I can spend the entire weekend doing whatever I want... without having to worry about any school work :D.  So... what have I done with my first complete day of freedom?  I cleaned and did laundry, lol.  I cleaned out my car, washed the kitchen, bathroom, cleaned and dusted my bed room... Strange as it sounds, I've actually been looking forward to cleaning this weekend. I haven't had time to thoroughly clean anything in weeks.  Less than an hour after cleaning my bedroom, I accidentally flung BBQ sauce all over my desk and bedroom carpet :(.  For a minute there I felt like my ex-roommate who lost most of our deposit by destroying her bedroom carpet with beer, pop, juice, gum, and dirty shoes.  She's also tried to decorate the entire main floor of the apartment with ground beef. Erm, gross.  Anyway... Matt and I are going to Tiara's for a hot tub party later tonight to celebrate finishing classes :)

In other news... I ended up spending a few hours in the emergency room on Wednesday because of severe lower abdominal pain.  It pretty much came out of nowhere.  I couldn't stand up straight, I threw up, and had stabbing pains in other areas as well.  The nurses thought it was either my appendix, an ovarian cyst, or a kidney stone.  I had a CAT scan after a nurse killed my vein with an IV.  I wouldn't look while she was putting the IV, but apparently I was bleeding all over and I ended up turning green :-P.  The abdominal pain stopped as suddenly as it started.  The CAT scan came back normal, so the appendix was ruled out... they're thinking it might've been a cyst, but there wasn't any fluid.  I'm pretty sure they ended up thinking it was most likely a kidney stone that I passed before the CAT scan.  Either way, it was very unpleasant.  I have a massive, multicolored bruise on my arm from the IV, and the right side of my abs seems a bit sore every once in awhile, but things have pretty much calmed down.  I scheduled a follow up doctor appointment for Monday. Hopefully they'll be able to tell me that everything is normal.  Thanks to Noelle for taking care of me :)

The past few weeks have been quite eventful.  I have more to write regarding my job search, but this post is getting long so I'll wait.
