Pink Eye and Ring Day!

Well....I have pink eye. This morning when I woke up my right eye was hard to open, crusty, and red (sorry if that was TMI). I wasn't sure if it was pink eye or allergies. So when I got to my placement this morning my mentor teacher told me I better go the doctor. I just got back from the clinic and sure enough it's pink eye! She gave me an antibiotic and told me to stay home for the day. Hopefully, it will be better by tomorrow!


I'm secretly kinda happy I have pink eye, ha! I have SOOOO much to do today! Tomorrow I'm getting my Aggie Ring and tomorrow evening is our dunk party! My best friend Kimberly is coming in tomorrow for the party...I'm excited! Today I need to clean my apartment, do laundry, go shoe shopping, and get a manicure! My mom has always told me that when I was little that I was always the happiest sick child! Haha! Guess I still am!

Yesterday I went shopping all over for a dress for Ring Day. I went to Kohls, TJ Maxx, Macy's Forever 21, Ross, and Target, I ended up buying a cute dress from Target....Thank God I found something!

What do you think?!


I will blog Sunday about getting my Aggie Ring and our party! : )  

Have a great day!

P.S. You get an Aggie Ring  once you complete so many hours at A&M! The tradition is to dunk your ring in a pitcher of beer after you get it....I'm kinda nervous about that part! :)

Oh, I hope you get over that fast! I've never had it, but it doesn't sound like a fun time! That dress is really cute.

Congrats on having pink eye! LOL! It's not too bad to deal with, plus now you have time to do what you need to do! I wanted to call in today, because I have so much to do. Luckly, I get off at 2:30 today!

Hope your pink eye goes away quick. Congrats on the ring! There is no way I could drink a pitcher of beer.

Larissa said...

I hope you feel better soon...Happy early ring dunking day!!! I remember when my bff from high school got her ring. We went to The Chicken (is that place still opened). Have fun!!!

Just found your blog, and as an Aggie (class of 2007 WHOOP!) I obviously have to be your newest follower!

Have fun on ring day! It's one of the BEST days EVER!! And, if you're dunking it...be prepared lady, it's not fun. haha.

Cristy said...

Duh, i didn't see the last sentence there. So you are dunking it...HAVE FUN! My only advice, let it sit out for HOURS. I did mine for 2 hours and it wasn't nearly enough. Let it sit for at
least 6 hours.

OH, and, wear an apron or a tarp because that cute little dress is gonna get full of...you know what.

Jessica said...

I loooooooove that dress, Christa! And, I would be nervous about the dunk, too. There's honestly NO WAY I could do that! GOOD LUCK!

Oh no, hopefully your pink eye will clear up by tomorrow night for your ring dunk!

Welcome to the World of Teaching!!! Now you get to experience the real fun...GERMS! : )

At least you will be cleared up by the time you're ready to dunk your ring. I know you will have an absolute blast, I know I did. What a great Aggie memory. WHOOP!! AND you will look so cute doing it. Love the dress.


Have a fab time. Can't wait to hear all about it.

Pink Eye is NO fun! I hope it healed quickly!!

I got pink eye in both of my eyes during student teaching, too! I haven't had it since, so maybe you won't get it again, either!

And I'm glad I saw where you got that dress. I'm gonna have to search for it!
