I pick Taylor up from preschool and deliver her to my mother’s house for babysitting four days a week. It’s a ten-minute round-trip, which means I have little five-minute conversations with Taylor. Teddy usually rides with me, and Taylor usually greets him with a squeal every day. And then it’s a five-minute [...]

What a flurry of activity took place the week of graduation! Sharon and I had numerous finals, we had out-of-town family and guests for whom to prepare, and we had to plan our open-house graduation celebration. I was so pleased that three of my Kansas friends came for the event. Jennifer & [...]

So having been designated the 0gden Scholar (which turns out to be a bigger deal than I originally thought), and with being one of two Mennonite sisters who were both graduating at the same time and “with honors,” Sharon and I were catapulted into the media spotlight briefly. They say you get fifteen minutes [...]

I don’t consider myself to be one of those people who buys brand name items for the sake of the brand name. When I find a product I really like, however, I do expect the store in which I found the product to carry it permanently. I have an internal system which stamps [...]

“There are three states of the world,” Dr. W said at the beginning of class on Thursday night. “You can take your test now, you can take it in thirty minutes, or you can take it on Monday.”
Over the past several years, I have taken many, many tests from Dr. W (~15), and I [...]

I am trying to work on homework. Despite the new light I recently bought for my desk, I feel like I can’t see anything. I have lost all motivation (“mojo,” in college-speak), and waves of despair wash over me afresh as I contemplate exactly how much work I have to do before this [...]

To tell the truth, the reason I initially chose the hospital is because of its location, which is exactly four minutes away from my house. Our internships are [...]
