Finals and Fun

Oh the difference a week can make!

Here is what the night before my chemistry final looked like...




And here is what I did less than 7 days later...




Yes friend, my Summer has begun!


Oh, the things there are to do...some not so pleasant (like bathing suit shopping. Yuck!) and some very pleasant. For example, the Friday after my last final I went to my favorite library and checked out some books. I selected Eragon (on Playaway), and Prince Ombra (never heard of it before but it looked interesting so I snatched it up). I also came across some books written with the intent to inspire want-to-be-writers: Spilling Ink by Anne Mazer and Ellen Potter and Writing Magic by Gail Carson Levine. (You see, deep down inside I want very badly to be a good writer who is worth reading. I figure if I imitate and practice like those High and Lofty Beings who have aspired to excellent authorship I too, might one day learn to craft words with skill).
There are many other pleasant things to do...pardon me whilst I go do some of them.

Happy summer C! E. was the first book that my d.s. read upon finishing school...only he is listening to it and reading it, and doing both at the same time. Perhaps its time to move on to something else? Go have fun C!
Love, T

Happy Trails..it was actually your d.s who got me to take more than a cursory glance at the Dragon Rider series. :) Though we discussed it awhile ago, I recalled our positive conversation when I saw it on the shelf. I'll let him know what I think after I finish it. :)
