Huzzah

Done with midterms. Finished. Kaput. See ya later. Oh, what a joyous day. Gotta love college.
Oh, I got bangs. I think I like them, but it's too early to tell. I'll let you know soon, oh and maybe post a picture.
FALL BREAK. yes. could not come at a better time.

So my lovely grandma is getting rather old, that's okay, it happens, and since she is aging, it has become harder for her to do things on her own. Now, you have to know my grandma, she is probably the most independent person I know. My grandpa passed away about 7 years ago? Maybe 8? I will have to check on that. Anyway, since he passed, she has been alone in her house, except for the tenants she has living in her downstairs apartment. So she is use to doing things on her own. When the doctor told her that she couldn't drive anymore, she was distraught, but, being the amazing person that she is, she has carried on. She is in pain constantly, and it breaks my heart. Recently her maid had to quit because of family issues, so she asked if I would be willing to come twice a month to clean her home. Of course I said yes. Cleaning her home will allow me to make a little cash, but more importantly, I will be able to spend time with my grandma, because we really don't know how much longer she has left. I just love her. She is the cutest thing you will ever see. She's about 4' 11", grey hair that she gets styled to perfection, always  wearing her cute antique jewelry, oh, and did I mention that she is tiny? She is a wonderful woman, and I look forward to spending time with her, even if it's just twice a month.

That's all for today folks. I hope you all have a glorious fall break. Don't forget to thank your heavenly father for our beautiful surroundings, and for all that he has given you. 



We have this at our fingertips, it would be a shame if we didn't explore it.

Hipsters

Oh hipsters. I see them daily at school. 


Hipsters: people who think they are original and unique for having "innovative" opinions, when really the only opinion they have is the opposite of whatever is considered "mainstream" at the time. -the internet


hipsters: "what! you're not allowed to like (insert underground band name here)! you're too mainstream! you listen to the.....RADIO"

average person: "oh..um.... i just like their music...because it's good....im sorry?"

hipster: *puts on fake glasses and walks away*



So great.

I'm so happy I could cry

Guess who got 100% on her Art History test...........this girl.

When I saw that big 140/140 circled in red...I cried. Literal tears.

That test took 4 hours, and by the end of it, my hand was shaking uncontrollably.

Was it worth it? Oh yes. Yes it was.

Grood

Great, and good. Today was a grood day, and I will tell you why: 

  • I think I did real grood on my Humanities test, and I got a 50/50 on my paper.
  • I really enjoyed Art History.
  • I ate some delicious Costa.
  • I watched my girls pull a win and pave their way to state! (they deserve the exclamation point)
  • I got to see some grood friends whom I miss dearly.
  • My new Nephew was born today. He is adorable.
  • I wore my hair natural. It's always a grood day when I wear it curly.
  • I don't have any homework...yet.....
  • I am going to watch Jane Eyre. The new version. With this guy. (see below)

Handsome. Love the scruff.
