Apparently I'm only capable of blogging in lists these days. Here's the second half of my first semester of med school in a very abbreviated fashion. My biggest failure of late is my lack of photography. When I stop studying and hang out with my friends or family, I've just been enjoying it so much I haven't slowed down to take pictures. I need to work on that.</div>
<br />
(1) Football. Auburn had some unexpected success. I have only attended the AU-Georgia and AU-UA games since graduating... so I have pretty high standards for my future Auburn games. I also made a couple of trips to T-town to see more (more: as, in additional to Auburn) high-quality football.<br />

Hi there, world. This week was fall break -- 9 wonderful school-free days. Unfortunately, I am not very rested but very caught-up on socialization and perhaps more importantly all things wedding related. Here's my last month in a list.</div>

Green River Ordinance on October 5th with Tyler and Charles. Joshua Radin and Matt Nathanson with Charles on October 15th. Dave Barnes with Madison and Kelsey on October 22nd. Sometimes I think I keep Workplay in business. I also should point out I skipped the Ben Rector concert on October 16th, but seeing as I had a final that week I decided concerts 2 days in a row wouldn't be a wise decision. Maybe next time. I've really been slacking with my photography (zero pics of me and my friends - sad), so here's to iPhone photos.</div>

(2) Wedding. </div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First of all, if you got a homemade invitation in a homemade envelope <strike>from Hogwarts</strike>, you're invited to be my bridesmaid! My budget appreciated my resourcefulness as the infamous craft box from sophomore year of college delivered on craft materials. I only paid for the postage. Square envelopes do cost extra money to mail, and the post office cashier smirked them and asked if I made them. Yes, yes I did. For better or for worse, this is officially the end of my DIY wedding stage. Definitely not my thing.</div>

This unfortunately overlapped with the Auburn A&M game, and I was limited to a small, fuzzy TV. It also limited my interaction with family. Still, good times were had.</div>

I would update the blog more often, but my life has become comfortably boring. Here are a few noteworthy events/ observations.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(1) Chick-fil-a kickoff game in Atlanta.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

Which brings me to my next notable update....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(2) Wedding planning. So far we have a venue, photographer, caterer, baker (cake), and florist. If anyone would like to pick my dress, bridesmaids dresses, bridesmaids, guest list (w/ addresses), registry items, or videographer, please let me know -- you will make my fall break (1 month away!) much less busy!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(6) School is turning me into a "runner." At least for now. I study 100% better on days I allow time to clear my head. I wouldn't really say I like it, but it's definitely becoming a staple.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(7) I've been having weird dreams. And craving hotdogs. (not at the same time)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(8) I really miss going outside and biking to class. (Although I am thankful I don't have to bike to UAB!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(9) I am always cold. Today I wore socks, shoes, jeans, a flannel shirt and covered up with a blanket in class.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(10) Southerners talk really slowly. I've been watching lectures on 2x speed to study, and the southern lecturers sound normal -- the others sound like chipmunks. </div>

So this is how it went down. I knew I wanted to make quesadillas; I started the crockpot right after work and threw in some chicken and salsa. While the chicken was cooking away, I remembered the <a href="http://untangledlines.blogspot.com/2011/12/very-neighborly-christmas.html" target="_blank">amazing quesadilla I had at this restaurant</a>. Two years ago, and I still remember it. <i>Obviously the BBQ+bacon goodness had an impact on me. </i>Anyways, I decided to recreate it as best I could. And it turned out pretty darn good. <i>We're rhyming over here, folks.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hold on to your hats because this recipe is mouthwatering. I mean who doesn't love barbecue chicken, bacon, and cheese all in one place? No one. That's who.<br />
Not only is this quesadilla super delicious, but it is so. darn.easy.<br />
<br />
{Serving Size for 2}<br />
<br />
Ingredients:<br />
4 soft taco shells<br />
2 medium chicken breasts<br />
4 pieces of cooked bacon or substitute bacon bits<br />
shredded taco cheese<br />
1 cup medium chunky salsa<br />
barbecue sauce (however much or little you please)<br />
<br />
Place chicken in crockpot on low for about 5 1/2 hours. Pour salsa over the chicken (You could use barbecue sauce instead if you don't want the extra flavor that comes with the salsa)<br />
<br />
Go about your day and savor the aroma every time your enter the kitchen (this is a <i>must </i>in my humble opinion whenever crockpot cooking). Maybe snack on some chips & salsa while you're at it. Because let's be honest, chips & salsa is essential to every good quesadilla.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
When the chicken is done, shred using a fork and keep it in the crockpot on warm.<br />
<br />
Get those taco shells out and sprinkle cheese all over 2 of them (you can add bacon here too if you want), then place all 4 in the oven on broil at 450 degrees until the shells are nice and toasted and the cheese is melty (Mine were perfect at 4 minutes)<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Pour barbecue sauce all over the 2 shells with the cheese to your taste.<br />
<br />
Add bacon-either cut up into small pieces after cooked-or sprinkle bacon bits. Both are good, both add that bacon-ey goodness that we all know and love. Bacon-ey. It may or may not be a word. It is most definitely a lifestyle.<br />

(4) <b> </b><span style="font-size: large;"><b>BEN RECTOR</b>'S NEW ALBUM CAME OUT TODAY!!!!!! </span>If you've EVER read my blog entries you know I have a Ben Rector problem. I've lost count of how many of his concerts I've been to (9?), and according to iTunes I've played "The Beat" 262 times. I fell in love with his song "Forever Like That" at a concert in October 2011, and I've been on pins and needles waiting for it to come out since then. </div>

Two different paths lead up to the tip of the mountain and we randomly chose one. The hike was harder than we expected; it was really more of a climb in most parts and we went down the other side, which ended up being 100 times easier. I'm sure there's some deep symbolism in choosing the harder path that leads to the same spectacular view? All I could think about was <a href="http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-road-not-taken/" target="_blank">this poem</a>:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Part of the joy in taking photos is having prints of your photos. I recently started a scrapbook (Yeah, I've become <i>that</i> girl) to document our newlywed lives and I finally started printing out photos. I debated using a printing company to make instagram polaroids, but decided to save a few bucks and print them myself. I used iPhoto, and it was <i>super</i> easy and quick. Plus I only used one sheet of paper for 17 photos!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First, I selected all of the photos I wanted to print by holding down the shift key. I suggest making a temporary album with the photos to make the selection easier. Then go to <i>File>Print</i>. Click on <i>Contact Sheet</i> and then <i>Customize</i>. Your page should look something like this.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
To get rid of the titles under each photo (assuming you don't want words below your pictures), go to <i>Settings</i> and uncheck the <i>Title</i> box. You can change the number of columns at the bottom. I used 4 columns, but I think next time I will try 3 for a bit bigger polaroids. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then all you have to do is print and cut them out to look like mini polaroids! I used matte paper and it worked perfectly. I'm not a huge fan of the glossy photo paper, but that would work too. </div>

Easy as pie. <i>I'm not sure why they use that saying, easy as pie. Pies are not always easy. Or maybe that's just me. </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you don't have iPhoto, you should be able to do the same thing with Word. You can drag your photos, resize them to whatever size suits you (I recommend somewhere around a 2x3) and determine the number of columns depending on how many photos fit in a row. A helpful way to save paper and time is to make the margins smaller so you can fit more photos per piece of paper. Again, print on matte or gloss photo paper and cut. If you're a perfectionist, use a ruler to make them all the same size. If you're like me, you can just guesstimate. </div>

Well, for better or for worse, classes toward my next degree begin this Monday. I've had a REALLY fun summer, but I'm definitely ready to add a little (or a lot of...) structure back in my life. And a break from wedding planning. {All I can say is I'm glad I never considered event planning as a profession.} I've done a terrible job blogging lately, but hey -- I've been on the move! I've gone out of town every single weekend this month and also been gone at least 14 nights or so. I definitely didn't document enough of it, but here's some moments I did manage to capture.</div>

My love for pop tarts is well-known. My pantry is rarely found to be without these tasty toaster pastries, and I'm completely okay with that. Sophomore year at Auburn I sadly made the discovery that the 200 calories listed on the box was for ONE pop tart. Not for one package. My heart was broken and I had a brief hiatus from the yummy treats. After all, they tricked me. But now all is well, and I just try to limit my intake. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So when I saw the recipe for <a href="http://www.marthastewart.com/319327/cinnamon-sugar-pastry-pockets?czone=holidays/summer-living/bestsummerever-bucket-list" target="_blank">these homemade cinnamon pop tarts</a>, I had to try them out. </div>

The hallway is filled with happiness because of these awesome prints I found through <a href="http://pinterest.com/acs0019/words-and-such/" target="_blank">pinterest</a>. We already had the frames; they were a little too big so I just taped the artwork on. The brown ended up being a nice little border that tied the pieces together.<br />
