Studying and Such

Dear Friends,

I know it has been super duper quiet around here and every time I am posting I am apologizing for not posting for so long.  But I've been really busy.

For the last few weeksin addition to work and volunteering at the vet clinic  I have been studying like a maniac...

You're probably wondering why, since I've graduated college and all..

But on Tuesday last week I took my British driving theory test...

And I PASSED!!! yay now I just have to take the real test where I have to actually drive which is scary!.  We will see how that goes.  Did I tell you we have been renting a car? It's awesome.  I love cars.

The other test I've been studying for was the GRE.  I was feeling pretty stressed about it to be honest.  Like I was gonna spontaneously barf for like a week before the test.  I needed to get a 1,000 to apply to vet school and I was pretty worried I wouldn't get it.  But did!  I almost cried when I saw the score appear on the screen at the end of the test.  But I did a lot of positive visualization of the big G-O-D telling me what the answers were and when that didn't work I thought about.... hmmmm well thats a secret but it worked!  Anyways I am trying this power of positive thinking thing and I think it's working.

In other news we had to go London to take this test.  We stayed at the Ibis hotel (I would not recommend).  We ate at Josephine's Filipino restaurant on Charlotte Street Friday night (I would HIGHLY recommend).  (Sorry no pictures cuz I was stressing!) Then on Saturday I took my test and we went to Chipotle to celebrate!!

Judge me if you will.  I know there are a million delicious restaurants in London, but Chipotle only exists in London in this country and ohhhh my god I miss it.  But it's not half as good here so that was a bit of a let down.  The tortillas tasted weird.  And the avocados suck in this country.  But I guess beggars can't be choosers eh?

Happy Monday.  

I missed you, blogosphere.

ps.  This means I can cross off more items on my Day Zero List.
