UNSTOPpABLE

Okay.....so for those of you who know me Best, know that Rascal Flatts is my all time favorite music group. If it has to do with them I know it. So If you don't know they have a new album coming out in April called Unstoppable. The countdown is on my sidebar and if you would like to hear their new Single just listen close, it is so good!

So yes I love them. I knew I had always liked their music but I went to their first Little Rock concert with my dad, and we had I think the last seats available because you could barely see the stage, but the concert was awesome. So the bad seats had made an impression on me, and I wanted to go to another concert to get better seats! so I joined their fan club because you get offers to have great seats at concerts. This really started my whole Rascal Flatts obsession.







Next thing I know my friend Megin and I are on our Way to Louisville, KY to see Rascal Flatts, with Eleventh row seats, for the Me and My Gang Tour. It was so much fun, and I was so excited to be there and be so close!! I mean you could see them, they were just right there! Ha!

So that concert was so good, that I Talked my friend Sarah into going to Memphis with me that next year to see them again, but this time we we're in the 8th Row! the concert was so good, even better than Louisville. SO then I made a promise to my Dad that if they came back to LR, I would take him, and we would have way better seats. So... they did. They came here last year for their Still Feels Good Tour, and My dad and I had 4th Row seats!! I know can you imagine my dad on the 4th row for Kelly Pickler and Rascal Flatts! However, he loved it. He was just singing away! I am so glad that I got to share that experience with him, it is one I will never forget!

Etiquette----Shmetiquette


Collin, Me, Brynna, and Megin at Chenal Country Club

So Apparently UAMS COP thinks that its Students need to learn about How to eat on Job interviews. So hence the Announce below



The Dinner was dreaded by I think just about everyone, not only because it required Business Dress but mainly because we had our first Therapeutics's Recitation the next day, and the 12 degree temperature outside did not help. It turns out however that it wasn't that bad. I learned a whole lot of things I never thought I would need to know. For instance, did you know that there is a certain way to eat your soup? or that if you don't want the waiter to take your plate that you cross the silverware, oh sorry Flatware, a certain way on your plate, as to not look hostile towards the other guests? Very Important stuff. I also learned that 5 Star Restaurants consider a piece of lettuce with some dressing on a salad, I had to cut my one piece of lettuce to eat it! There is also way to many glasses and Flatware for one table at one time! I have to say it was a learning experience and that I am glad I got to be apart of it. I will post some pictures from the dinner as soon as I can. SO remember if anyone wants some advice on how to eat proper, let me know, I can definitely help you out!

Let's Catch Up


Okay, I realize it has been quiet awhile since I even looked at this thing, but I am going to make an effort to keep this going! Man I can't believe that Christmas and New Years has already gone and here we are almost half way through Jan. 2009! That 2009 is a scary year because that means that Carl and I have our 10 year High School Reunion this year, YIKES!

So let's see what has happened this past year....Well for short Carl and I have been married almost a year and half , & I am loving every minute of it. He is still with LRPD, and does some heavy equipment hauling on the side. I finished my first year and 1st semester of my 2nd year of pharmacy school at UAMS. I am looking so forward to being done with that, I takes up so much of my time! No kids yet just our Scooby Doo. Here is a few pictures of our Handsome Man





Thanksgiving and Christmas were good this year, we spent most of our time around here with family but did manage to make it down to Hope to see my "POP" a few times. He is a very special man, and I love spending time with him. Here are a few Pictures from Christmas








That kitty is a special addition to the Hastings Family his name is Snuffy and He was a Sort of Replacement for Our Siamese Sweetie Kasey and our Big Booty Judy KD we lost last year, even though there will never be another Little Chinaman or KD, Snuffy is an Adventure. He has so playful and loving, my parents saved him from Little Rock Animal Services just in time. My family wasn't sure about getting another because we loved my Little Man so much, but Snuffy found us and I believe there is a little piece of all of our past Cats in him.
Well that's About all I think, as far as 2009 goes I think Its gonna be a good year, if school doesn't stress me out to much. I am looking forward to keeping everyone posted so until the next one Happy New Year and God Bless!
