summer lovin'

What am I loving about summer, you ask?


I'm loving the nice(-ish) weather. 
The fact that my first semester is accomplished.
I am taking some super interesting summer courses.
I feel organized at the moment. (due to my room being clean)
Getting closer to some of my friends in Kent.


And much, much more.


Get ready for a bunch of posts regarding special education and equality in education due to two of my online classes.


That's all for my post. 


I'll leave you with a foto of my friend Angel and me. It is almost her birthday. I'm excited to celebrate!



PS> more glamorous shots to come.

locked in the library.



I'm mid-finals week and I am definitely missing my study buddies from Calvin. Hannah will forever be the best paper writing partner ever. [I love late night ihop runs and plugging in my computer into the outlet on the ceiling.] Dan was also a good partner in crime. Josh was the best in Spain - splitting a bottle (or two) of wine over homework is definitely the way to go. 


I've been spending a good amount of time in the library due to the sad state that my computer is in. I really, really, really want to get a new one. [a macbook pro] But that doesn't seem to be in the cards at the moment. I just don't like always using public computers or the family computer. I feel restricted in a way and I don't completely understand why. I guess I am very fortunate and have gotten used to the convenience of having a personal laptop. 


So I have two exams down. One to go. And a Spanish paper that is killing me. 


I have been doing fairly well here at Kent State but I still struggle so much with writing a paper. Perhaps I should look into the resources here for paper writing. As of right now I just need to buckled down and pump it out. [First things first, I need to stop all my dilly-dallying.] 


Summer is a day away (as well as Cinco de Mayo) and I'm ready for it. [As well as the summer courses that I'll be taking.] 


PS> Calvin friends - the library here is open 24hours M-F. (and it's open on Sunday.)
