Winner! Winner! Chicken Dinner!

Today has seriously been an amazing day!! The beautiful flaming ball of gas that we call the sun FINALLY decided to grace us with it's wonderful warming presence. It has been weeks since we have had a beautiful sunny day as we have had today. So that is one of the many things that the good lord has blessed me with today! I was also blessed with sooo much energy! I have been able to do all of the things I have needed to! After the past few weeks that I have had I can't tell you how thankful that I am to be able to feel this great. I was surprised this morning when I woke up that I didn't feel exhausted like I usually do. Last night I got the opportunity to ask one of my guy friends to the girls choice dance that is coming up here in February. I hung out with some of my closest friends and we just messed around like normal seniors in HS do.  Normally when I do this I crash pretty hard the next day, but today I didn't. That is such a big blessing that I am so grateful for!!

At school today I learned that I got 100% on the human anatomy and physiology test that I had on Monday so that made me very happy. Also today was the talent show and that took like 30 or more minutes. Which means short classes and since I got to the local technology school in the afternoons that meant even shorter classes for me today. What senior in HS doesn't love not having to spend all of their time in class? So I got a long lunch and when I got to my MA class our teacher told us that we were going to be learning how to suture. I was on cloud at that point and nothing could bring me down.

I am not your average 18 year old American girl. I am the only girl in my family and I am also the youngest. That means I was raised with three older brothers. I was raised with thinking that blood and guts are cool. My favorite sport is hockey and my favorite part of that sport is watching people get into fights. I like war movies and I didn't know that the barbie wasn't supposed to get eaten by the T-Rex till I was 5. So when it comes to blood and guts I have a bring it on and the more the merrier mentality. That's just me, I like this kind of stuff!

So when class got out and the chicken that I had, had been stitched and stapled the first thing that I thought was "I can't wait till one of my brothers or friends does something stupid so I could stitch them up." So my friends the moral of this post is enjoy the little things in life. Sometimes great things come in small packages, and if you enjoy the little things and let them make you happy then you will find that you have an amazing life!

WARNING: If you don't want to see a chicken breast with stitches in it then don't scroll down!

The top four stitches are epidermis stitches and are easily seen the other stitches are a running stitch and the are in the pink area, the little orange lines are the suture, they are harder to see
