It ticks on...

Ok... so where did this semester go? I am trying to work on a paper, and time just doesn't want to let me win this battle. I am looking at 3 weeks to get a HUGE paper done, and I want to scream. Oh well... at least I know where my dedicated time will be for the next two weeks.
Other than that, I have just been trying to get through this last month or so. I have been feeling really tired the past couple of weeks, and I haven't even been pushing myself to the limit. Yesterday, I left school and work early because I wasn't feeling well from the weekend, and I crashed on the couch when I got home. (While naps are awesome, I find them hard to take because I could be doing so much more with my time.)

So, this weekend will be fun because I will be spending it with the sisters in Tri-Sigma. We are all so busy it is hard to make time for each other, but I have been looking forward to this. It is like a big sleep over- which I miss with my best buddies in CA =(

I am getting very excited for summer! My family is getting a pool, so this means much fun in the summer time! Between the pool and the beach, I hope I can get some color- usually I burn and get freckles =( I hate I am from the two sunniest states (FL and CA) and people don't believe me because I am not tan. I want my skin to be healthy - just not to blind people when I go out in summer wear!

Spring Break!


Spring break was amazing! I got the rest I needed, caught up on numerous things, and had fun. While others may have gone to the beach or on a road trip, I stayed home. I couldn't be happier with my decision! I went to a flea market and had fun people watching and paroosing. I don't quite understand how I couldn't find anything,though... there is so much stuff there! As a consolation, I got a corn dog- Here is Earl's Eatery. I have an Uncle Earl, so I had to purchase something---

After that, I spent most of my time around the house helping with ongoing jobs or attempting to pick up my room. I got most of my homework done for the week, so hopefully this will be a stress free 4 day week! Here is a moth I saw while walking to my car:

At the end of the week, I went with my mom down to Tampa to visit my Mimi. We went shopping- got a bathing suit and sandals- and out to eat. It was great to see my Mimi because I always have fun with her =)

Now, I am looking forward to summer- I can't believe I am almost done with another year here at Leo. I am try figure out my classes now, and I am also deciding what to do about an internship next year. I read the school paper is looking to hire, so I will get in contact!

Here I am helping out my parents in the yard: having fun :)
