Oaks 134

I love Derby Week! I'm one of those people that think that anyone working in Louisville should have the whole week before Derby off so that they can enjoy all the Derby Week festivities. I don't understand how anyone cannot enjoy Derby Week. Isn't it a national holiday? Ok, anyway, I went to Oaks with my mom, Devon&Brad, John, and Thad. Our seats were in the Turf Club. There were several celebrities that were seated at the tables surrounding us - Bobby Flay, Joey Fatone, Smokey Robinson, Jerry O'Connell, and (my favorite) David Padgett. I was actually most impressed by him. I actually was down for the day after all the tickets were cashed, but I ended up winning my bets for the Woodford Reserve Turf Classic and Derby Race that I had placed for Derby Day. (Poor Eight Belles, by the way. That was tragic. I just wanted to cry).

David Padgett - He's a giant. I mean, look at my hat. It barely comes up to his shoulder. He was very nice.

"Excuse me, Mr. Fatone, could I take a picture with you? I'm a big fan." I couldn't resist. Took my back to my *NSYNC days. Ahh...memories.

But the funniest part was when my mom went up to him and said, "I've bought enough of your damn albums for my kids. The least you can do is take a picture with me." He laughed and took one gladly.

Thad was really excited to take a picture with Bobby Flay from the Food Network. He was actually pretty arrogant. Maybe he was just preoccupied with having his horses run on Oaks Day and Derby Day.

So, I know the dress is a repeat, but isn't the hat perfect!?! Thank you Dee's Crafts for the best selection of Derby hats in the world!

6 months...

Well, today marks the 6 month out mark from the wedding. I have made a lot of progress, but there is still a lot to do. Decisions to make on each and every detail that will make our wedding special. We're meeting with the coordinator tomorrow and hopefully will make some progress.

School is going well. Getting ready for another test on Monday. Only 4 more school tests to go and then boards and then I'm done. Graduation is coming up the day after Derby (typical UK/Lexington inconveniencing Louisvillians. Not a big Lexington fan). But I'm not officially done with the program until the middle of July. I guess they figure no one wants to come back and walk in December.

Mom broke her ankle last weekend, so I've been taking care of her all week. She's making progress slowly but surely.

Don't know which of my friends read my posts, but I miss them all. And all their kids are cute, by the way. I try to at least look at the pictures of everyone anyway. Here's a recent picture of me at a college friend's wedding last week. Enjoy!

26

Well, tomorrow is my 26th birthday. I talked to my friend Kate when she turned 26, and she said that she would not be celebrating her 26th birthday. But instead she would be celebrating the anniversary of her 25th birthday. I thought for a while that would be a good idea, but then I realized that I will be 26 when I get married. So if turning 26 means I am closer to my wedding, then I am excited about it.

Off to bed...got surgery bright and early tomorrow morning. Only 3 more weeks!

Sick...again

Sick again. That's right. But the good news is that I only have 1 day left on my Peds rotation. Thank the Lord b/c I cannot stand to be sick anymore. This is 4 times in 8 weeks. I just pray that I am well
1. before my test
2. by Christmas.
I even had to miss my Christmas dinner with all my high school friends last night. Hopefully I'll get to see people over the break.

Free Apple Products/Cash

OK. So I don't usually go for this kind of stuff, but I figure it's worth a shot. Check this out, and if you don't mind to try it out, I'd really appreciate it! By the way: All the stuff below, I copied from another site. The video at the bottom is what sold me on it.

Please Take the Time to Read This! I Swear It's Legit!
I was doing a project for school on the legitimacy of those sites that offer you free iPods and such. To my surprise, it actually worked! The best part is, it literally didnt cost me a penny (well, I take that back, it cost me $1.20 to list info on eBay to get my refferals!) All I had to do was sign up for a membership at stamps.com. The site offering the free iphone requests that you remain a member for 21 days, and stamps.com offers you a 28 day FREE trial plus $5.00 in credit, so it cost me nothing to print off the postage required to complete my comitment to the free offer site. I just had to remember to cancel my membership to stamps.com between the 22-28 day time frame. The next thing the free iPhone site required me to do was recruit 8 people to complete 1 offer, just as I had done. Thats it. I was skeptical at first, but you have my word that this actually works! (BTW, if you want to copy the info off of this page and the eBay auction page, please feel free to do so! Just make sure you get your own refferal number entered in! I might not use the above listed material on yours, but feel free to use the info listed below!)

HERES WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW!
Just take 1 minute and read this. This is very EASY to do! It literally takes 10 minutes to setup. Simply follow the steps below. This is 100% real. Here is what you do. Click on the link below, register, pick an account type (referral is the easiest) and complete just 1 offer (Very important that you complete the 1 offer otherwise your account will sit in limbo until you do).This is not like other sites where you need to complete one offer on 2 or 3 different pages!!! And a lot of these offers are FREE trials with nothing else to buy...No committments!!!
There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use them to get a free iPhone, iPod Classic, iPod Touch, or cash!
HERES THE TRICK:
#1. When you get to select an offer page. Try to only choose the offers that say CREDIT YOUR ACCOUNT SAME DAY: ALMOST INSTANLY: WITHIN ONE DAY: These offers will credit your account fast and you can get your item fast. Try to go for something you will like to make use of. The offer details you will see right under the offer REQUIREMENTS: move your mouse over this areas and it will tell you the details of the offer.
#2. If you dont care and just want your Free Item, the best route is the STAMPS.COM offer
Because its a 4 week trial =28 days
It won't cost you a penny and you will received credit for it the same day, plus you get $5.00 in free credit.
They will ship your Apple product for free. No Joke, 100% REAL!!! The reason these companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all the referrals. All you have to do is post it on EBAY! They use US as advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money which goes toward yours and my free gift. These are legit companies such as Blockbuster, Netflix, Gamefly etc... You can copy my listing if you want. You must use your own authentic link though. You will get your own personal link after your order is placed.

Step 1: Click on this link: http://www.YourFreeiStuff.com/index.php?ref=4417202
Step 2: Sign up and chose an account type (Referral is the easiest and best).
Step 3: Complete just 1 offer (like Netflix.com or Stamps.com) and refer 8 people to do the same. Don't say uuuh I don't want to do that cause the same way you just looked at my eBay ad, someone will do the same to yours!
Step 4: iPhone or iPod FOR FREE!!!!!!!!!!(Even The Shipping Is Free !!!)

If you still don't believe me check out this video!! It has actual news footage about this program.

Still Sick

Well, I've been sick off and on for about 3 weeks now, and I can only attribute the various viruses that I seem to be keeping to my Peds rotation. I haven't done much of anything for the past 3 weekends and am starting to become very bored. I've only got about 2 weeks left there, so I hope that my immune system will hold up and keep me from picking up anything else.

Since I was sick, I unfortunately did not have a very good Thanksgiving. I couldn't keep anything down. And I didn't get to go and see Thad's family in Bardstown at all. Here's our Thanksgiving in Louisville.

Hopefully, I will be well for Christmas and Christmas break. I get about 2 weeks off and am looking forward to seeing friends and fmaily over the break. My break starts Dec 17, so give me a call or shoot me an email if you wanna get together. I start Surgery on Jan 2, and I'll be pretty busy for about 2 months.
