The Garfield and Odie Experience

 It is now the long-awaited Spring Break. No school. Tumblr, eating, and just plain awesomeness.
*cues church choir*
I'm really excited because there's some awesome things planned.
  1. Watch The Hunger Games at the theater - I've read the books so this is going to be great.
  2. Go to the Muncie mall
  3. Get my hair cut - I want it to look kind of like this:
     4. Go to the skating rink in Richmond on Saturday
 Over Spring Break I'd also like to learn how to play So What by P!nk on guitar so I could put it up on here (no promises). I think I should be able to do it.  

I also have some amazing news. I now have a dog. His name is Jack. And he's the most adorable Jack Russel Terrier, and might I say most adorable dog in the world. 
As you might know, I already have a cat named Angel:
Together, these two remind me very much of Garfield and Odie. Every time Jack comes near Angel, she acts inferior. 
 Angel's internal dialogue: "What is that atrocious thing doing near me? As a matter of fact, what is he doing in my house?"
 And then Jack just runs around hyper all of the time. Quite hilarious.
On my last blog post, I mentioned that I would update you on my CPR skills. I am here to tell you that THESE SKILLS HAVE BEEN REWARDED.
 That beautiful piece of paper is my CPR certification (with a rocket drawn on with my Paint skills). Never had I thought I would see the day. 
 In all seriousness, this is a great thing to accomplish. It's good to know how to do this.

CPR is for Dummies (Pun Intended)

 Have you ever wanted to maim a manikin? Maybe the manikin didn't even do anything, but under the circumstances you wanted to punch it in its non-existent feelings? If you answered "yes", I feel your pain.
 Recently, Advanced Health has brought on what is known as 'CPR training'. This process can be very frustrating and stressful. 
 I know, I know. It's important to do this and it may save someone's life. I get that and I think it's great and so useful. But it's stressful, man. 
 Just imagine having this creepy looking manikin on the floor, your teacher yelling out different scenarios , and you trying not to throw the thing out the window because you can't figure out if it's choking on a stinkin' hot dog or his pulse has mysteriously stopped. Then, you almost 'jump with joy' because you think you've revived   the thing and passed the test only to see that it's found something else to choke on! Like, really! Did it regurgitate it's food and choke again? Is this possible? 
 Apparently so. 
I feel that it's not over yet, though. I'll keep you updated.
