That's right! I am FINALLY done reading Middlemarch. I've been reading it for just over a month.  And the last 100 pages were actually semi-interesting.  Of course, it only took the first boring 700 pages to get there.

On Saturday my roomie and I went shopping and made a stop at Wendy's for some lunch.  As we were leaving, a mom and her son (who was ( Read more... )

I took a nap today before my afternoon classes, but was stupid and set my alarm for AM instead of PM, so I missed 2 of my 3 classes today. Way to go, me.

Yup, it's true. I'm already looking forward to summer. This semester (even though its only been a month) has been really hard. And I don't think it is going to get any better. But the summer should be great! Ellen and I have our plane tickets to New Zealand ... we are going to be gone for 3 weeks! I'm kind of scared for us ... especially since ( Read more... )

I just finished up my last class of the day, which means the 3-day weekend is here! Hooray! My classes this semester are ok so far, but I'm dreading the amount of work that they will be. I've done homework every night this week! Talk about weird. What happened to college being a social activity? Do my profs think I'm actually here to learn ( Read more... )

Doug and Anna came to down to visit this weekend, which was pretty great. Although it made me want to go home and have this semester be over with even more! But those two crazy kids were up to their usual crazy antics. They made it to Navs in time to hear Ellen speak (which was awesome by the way! I got some great not-posed-at-all pics of Ellen ( Read more... )

I'm handling it much better than I thought I would. I've been a bit apprehensive because I'm 20 now, and I fear change. Although we signed the lease on our apartment for next year this week, so that kind of segwayed (hmm ... word?) into the grownup-ness. I'm super excited for that. Even though Amanda won't be there first semester. I'll miss ( Read more... )

Is there anything better than a delicious Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich on a beautiful fall day? And then taking a nap? Mmmm ... this, my friends, is what makes life good.

I really should write about the other five days of the week. But I'm not going to in this post, because this past weekend was Fall Break, Audra and Steve's wedding, and just a ton of fun in general! I'm on a major withdrawal from all the bonding time between me, Ellen, Bennett, Brock, and Sarah. And Doug and Anna, too of course. Doug was so ( Read more... )

I absolutely love my suities! We have had just the most fabulous weekend together. It started off on Friday with a lovely trip to Coldstone and then a girly movie. But the girliness didn't end there, oh no. It continued on Saturday with Amanda and I heading over to the Lil White Box to help decorate for Elsa and Claire's 21st Classic Movie Star ( Read more... )
