This will be a place to share experiences of my life in graduate school. Family and friends, I hope you enjoy!
My life right now:
I am a first year graduate student in the biomedical engineering department at the University of Wisconsin. I am living in the beautiful city of Madison and loving it! What does being a graduate student entail? About five years of a few classes and lots of time in the lab doing research. And yes, I actually enjoy this a lot haha
I miss my family a whole lot (but am very excited to be close to my Iowa kin for the first time ever).
I miss Oklahoma and OU a lot, but am extremely grateful for all the amazing memories I have.
That is a brief synopsis of my life.
Just a side note. Last year, I was chair of an event called Dance Marathon, which raised money for Children's Miracle Network. As chair, I was blessed with the opportunity to visit the children at the OKC hospital every week (usually seeing them multiple times a week.) Micah Walters is probably the most amazing person I got to know. He is the biggest OU fan I've ever met (besides my Uncle Bud, maybe) and has such an inspiring family. They have been through more than I could ever imagine. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers as they have been hit with yet another hard time. If you'd like to know more, here is their blog http://waltersfamily.wordpress.com/ or you can ask me details. Here is a picture of Micah and me at the OU homecoming pep rally last year where he led the Boomer Sooner chant
In posts to come soon: what my typical day looks like (with pictures) and a recap of my first weekend in California. Feel free to suggest any posts you would like to see.
Xoxo. And BOOMER FREAKIN' SOONER. I love OU/saxeT week.
