Today marks the first day of my sophomore year, and my first official year in Viterbo's Nursing Sequence! My class schedule for today was microbiology, fundamentals of nursing concepts, and health assessment. So far my teachers seem pretty cool, and not many assigned homework other than readings, so that's good. My school day started at 8:00am, so I had to be up by 6:00am and out the door by 6:45am. Somehow I managed to do it. My school day ended at 12:10pm, so I met up with some friends and we all went out for lunch. After lots of laughs and a full stomach I headed home. Once I got home I laid down for a half hour nap, and ended up falling asleep because I had a headache. If this keeps up, I don't know what I'm going to do. But once I woke up I headed outside to take progress pictures for Country Heat, and do my workout for day 15. Now I'm inside getting ready to shower, and eat supper. Once that's done I'll probably start going over readings and homework that is due for Wednesday.
Tomorrow's schedule is a bit lighter, going 8:00am to 11:50am with pathophysiology and health assessment lab. I also have a call with my Beachbody coach at 3:30pm, granted the day goes smoothly and nothing pops up for neither my coach or I.
I hope everyone is having a good end to their summer!

Beachbody Coaching
As of August 10, 2016 (seven days ago), I am a Beachbody coach. I've been following a handful of coaches on Instagram for months, and even connected with one on Facebook not too long ago. I ended up receiving that initial "Hey girl, I've been loving your page and I think you would be an excellent addition to my team, are you interested?" And to be completely honest, I dodged responding to it for quite awhile. Her message peaked my interest, but I really didn't have money to spend on anything at that moment, so I let the message go and later told her that I wasn't financially able to commit to Beachbody at that time.
Well, fast-forward a couple of months, I have two part-time jobs with a steady income and thought "I can splurge on myself now." So I contacted her again and asked what Beachbody was all about and what it takes to be a coach. Long story short, here I am. I just had my first official call with my coach, and it has set my day up for success. I have a planning binder that I finally got to putting together yesterday, and so far it's helping me so much. In the beginning there's a bunch of basic information and goal sheets, and toward the back there are daily entries. It's helping me check in every now and then and helping my business grow.

A Déjà Vu Break-Up?
Every now and again some people get a case of "Déjà Vu" in which one has a strong feeling that the individual has already experienced an event that is currently being experienced. Just this past week, I got dumped, and am feeling like I had a case of déjà vu.
The Backstory
A little over a year ago, my boyfriend of almost three years dumped me. Our relationship had been going through a rough patch, and he had talked to a girl that only wanted to watch me fail. Within 24 hours of him talking to her, he sat me down and we had "The Talk." He said we needed to take a break, and when I asked why his response was "You don't seem happy anymore. I just want you to be happy, even if that doesn't include me." From my point of view, I was actually feeling happier. I had some bad things happen the month before, so I had fallen into a slump, but then I noticed and decided I needed to change. I was feeling happier, and I was willing to work through my relationship problems. But then the break happened. I though it would be okay, "it's only a break. After a little bit we will be back together and things will go back to normal," but then he wasn't talking to me and all the pictures he had posted of us were gone. That is when I knew the "break" was really a "break-up."
And Now Today
For the past month, my boyfriend and I (of almost 11 months) had been fighting due to not being able to see each other much anymore and trying to make each other a priority. The same girl that the last guy had talked to was trying to make her way back into my life and I was dodging it, and then she started trying to get into my boyfriend's life. He didn't want to put up with it, so he blocked her, at least that is what he told me. However, she messaged him Monday night and they talked about our relationship problems. Within 24 hours of them talking, my boyfriend told me that we needed to talk, and it would be best if I went to his house. I was already planning on doing this because our fighting was becoming draining and I wanted things to go back to how they were; however, as soon as I arrived, he said those same words: "I think we need to take a break." Again, I asked for a reason, and his response was "You don't seem happy anymore." And just as before, I was actually feeling happier in the days leading up to him breaking up with me. I had gotten off a great day of work, and I signed up to be a Beachbody coach as well as signed up to join a challenge group. I was floating on cloud nine and I couldn't wait to see my boyfriend. But then the break happened. I had the same thoughts as before, "just a break, soon things will be back to normal." But within 6 hours of him saying we needed a break, all of his posts of us were deleted. That is when I realized that this "break" was really a "break-up" again.
