Survived my first week!

Well today is my friday for school. I made it through my first week! We only had school 3 days this week because of good old Columbus. I just have to tell you that I really like school right now...I know...its just as shocking for me to say it as it is for you to hear it! Who would have thought I'd ever like school! I have school mon-thurs from 9am-5:30pm...so we are very full time. After the first 8 weeks it will change to mon-wed and then either sat or sun for clinic, where I actually start massaging the public. We have 2 classes a day, each one is 3.5 hrs and then we get a nice 1.5 hr lunch break. So far I have started 2 classes, Anatomy and Massage Basics 1. I am SO pumped about deciding to do this and become a massage therapist! I finally have something that I am becoming more and more passionate about and it will be part of me and my own thing! Awesome! And honestly, who would have ever guessed that I would be so interested in the human body?! I love my anatomy class! It excites me to actually learn it all and apply it to massage. I will be learning even more than I realized. Its fascinating when you start to learn about how much they are realizing massage helps in over all health and in modern medicine as well. These days a lot of it is going hand in hand. I even have more respect for it already.
All the teachers seem to really be great. My anatomy teacher is so freakin awesome....not to mention hot! ;) Haha. But is a great teacher because he doesn't just want to make us memorize a bunch of stuff, he teaches it in a way that we learn it, understand it, and remember it. He is great at relating things to other things in life so its easy to remember too. He makes it more interesting w all his little facts he adds in. I did my first massage today, and received one too! Its nice that at school I get to receive a massage every day too! In no time I'm gonna be the best massage therapist you all know! So be excited! :)
Some of you will be excited to know that I hung out with Ben Blake last night. He invited me to a play at the U of U his work gave him. It was so good to see him and remember all our freakin awesome Glenwood days when we all lived by them! He is seriously such a great guy and a total gentleman. Its great to have him around and living in my same complex. More good times to come!
