An Intro!

[Sarah Quinn Houchens]

Hey everyone!!

I couldn't locate a place in Bolt where you give information about yourself like your hobbies, interests, etc., so I figured I'd use my first blog post to do just that. My name is Sarah, and I live in the exciting town of Willmar, MN! I, however, am NOT a born n' bread Minnesotan. I was origionally born in West Islip, New York, then moved to East Petersburg, Pennsylvania and lived there until I was 11. Then we packed up and moved to Minnesota. The transition was kind of rough, mainly because all of my family is still back east.

I am currently in my second semester of the nursing program at Ridgewater College. I'll have my LPN in May of 2010 and my RN in May of 2011. I've waited for as long as I can remember to be doing what I am right now and I love every second of this program! You can ask anyone...I'm a BIG medical nerd. Any kind of medical fact interests me. I'm basically a nerd in general, but hey, there's worse things that I could be. I work at Bethesda Nursing home as a CNA/TMA and I've been working there since Feb 2007. It certainly isn't the most glamourous job but I love the residents and the people I work with and I honestly don't mind going to work at all.

Between work and school, I enjoy listening to music (country, rock, GREEN DAY, NORAH JONES, NIRVANA, punk, some soundtracks, oldies, etc), watchin' movies, reading, hanging with my friends/family and my WONDERFUL boyfriend Bobby! Depending on the weather, I like to swim, go out on the boat, fish, snowmobile, four wheel, take walks, and camp. There's nothing better than having a cold beer with the people that you care about after a long week at school or work. I'm caring, funny, too apologetic, positive, epileptic, a hopeless romantic, hopeful, honest, feisty (esp if there's beer involved), fun-loving, courageous, nerdy, and driven. All of those adjectives have been said about me and I agree with each and every one of them.

I'm new to this networking site but Bobby (my amazing boyfriend) told me about so I'm gunna attempt to get used to it (I'm not nearly as computer savy as he is lol.) If anyone has any questions, lemme know!!
