So I haven't had the chance to get a picture yet thanks to the fact that I jinxed myself by saying that I didn't feel sick. I am at this new awful stage where I am hungry ALL THE TIME and that makes me feel sick, so I eat something that sounds good and that makes me feel sick, so I lay down to try and feel better and that makes me feel sick!
I know I shouldn't complain because I haven't been forced to spend my days hunched over the toilet but I have definitely lost the motivation to do much the past week or so. It is the kind of sickness that is just there enough to make you feel miserable and want to lay around all day.
This has also posed a problem since I have to take the Praxis text this weekend to get into the education program at Weber and I haven't studied for it at all yet :/ Since I paid $140 to take the test I really want to get a great score first time...
I also have a lovely interior design portfolio due when our spring break is over that I am only half way finished with, a midterm for my education class, and test for my human development class I need to finish. It is our spring break this week so Eric and I are going home Thursday morning until Sunday night so I know that doing homework after wednesday will pretty much be a joke.. I also work everyday until then.
So basically I really need some motivation to get all of my crap done and stop being distracted by things such as facebook, pinterest, blogging, and t.v. Having a break from this feeling crappy would also be welcomed with open arms!
We haven't seen Eric's family for almost a month now so Eric has been pretty homesick and we miss our little neices and nephews a ton so that pretty much makes the motivation between the two of us zero... Probably explains why our apartment is a disaster! Oh well I guess haha!
On thursday we are going to drive to Ogden first thing for our second doctors appointment so that is pretty exciting! I am going to be 9 weeks on wednesday so we are hoping to get a pretty good picture of our little gummy bear :) We also want to look around at some apartment options and get an idea for prices in the Ogden area...
In other news I thought I would add a quick summary of our cruise! :)
We had such a good time and it was so nice to get a break from school! We got on the boat on Sunday at 4:00 and spent the rest of the night and all of the next day exploring the boat and eatings LOTS and LOTS food and ice cream. We also had our formal night on Monday :)
Tuesday was our first stop in Cabo and it didn't start quite as planned. We had scheduled a snorkling excursion for the day that was supposed to leave at 10:00 AM and since our boat docked at 9:00 AM we thought it worked out perfect! We would be off the boat by 9:30 and could go get everything ready... What we didn't realize was that Mexico time was an hour ahead of the boat time, which meant that we really didn't get off the boat until 10:30 and that our excursion had left us.
After some bargaining we worked it out and switched our plans around a little bit. We ended up going to Lover's Beach and it was so amazing! Eric and I borrowed some snorkling gear from my cousins and swam around the beach with the cute fishies and just goofed around! I ended up making a huge mistake that made the next few days miserable... I decided to lay out with no sunscreen on my legs... I ended up falling asleep on my stomach and the backs of my legs were FRIED!!! It hurt so bad! Not to mention I got Heat Exhaustion from not drinking enough water which would end up ruining our next day.. We then went and shopped and ate at a super yummy resturant and got back on the boat for the night.
Wednesday was our second day in Cabo and we ended up doing our snorkling excursion that day.. at least everyone else did. For the excursion we got on a little boat and they took us on a 40 minute ride to a cute little cove and everyone got to get out and snorkle. Only thanks to my lovely sunburn on the way there I got really sick and felt like I had a fever. I was freezing and shaking and couldn't keep my body temperature regulated. We decided since the water was cold and I was having temperature issues that it would be best for me to stay out of the water. Eric was able to snorkle though and he had such a great time! He said there were so many cool fish and that his favorite fish was a scorpion fish!
Thursday was our day in Puerta Vallarta and luckily my sunburn was feeling much better! We did a zipline excursion that was sooo much fun and then went around shopping for the rest of the day! Puerta Vallarta was crazy because not very many people spoke good english and everything was in peso's which made me feel super out of place. It was so neat to get to see the difference in cultures!
Friday and Saturday were days just on the ship and let's just say they weren't nearly as enjoyable as our first ship day! The current was a lot more rough going back which made the ship very rocky. My lovely morning sickness and super sensitive nose helped to ruin the last two days as well. I ended up not being able to eat very much without getting sick so I spent most nights napping in our room while Eric went to dinner with my family in the nice resturant (The smell made me SUPER sick!) and then he would come get me after to go get something from the buffet (I had lots of salad, grilled ham and cheese sandwiches, and rice with soy sauce haha!) then we tried easy going activities like watching comedians and the different theatre shows they had.
I think Eric would have stayed on the boat for a month but I was pretty happy to get to solid land after the last two days! Altogether though, our cruise was truly amazing and I loved being able to go with all of my family!
