Well, it's the end of another weekend. How is it that the weekends always go by so fast? Yesterday I worked pretty much all day and then I went to the mall to be in the 3rd(?) annual Valentine's Day (a little late this year) family photo with my mom, sister, nieces, and my sister's mother-in-law. While the people with the money (the adults minus me) were deciding which pictures they wanted to buy afterwards, us girls (including two of my nieces, Baylee, 8, and Rylie, 6) spent our time smelling the Yankee candles that were on display outside of the photo place at JC Penny. I know, who spends their time smelling candles? But it was that or take them to look at stuff in other stores, so I opted for staying close and checking out the candles.
After that was all done, my friend Chelsea and I went to church. It's pretty exciting that Chelsea has been coming to church with me, because she hadn't been going to church regularly for months now. Then I invited her to come with me a couple weeks ago, and the message really spoke to her heart, so she's been coming with me lately. We're even both going on the college retreat that my church is going to have in a few weeks! I can't wait.
Then last night after church we watched A Walk to Remember. I know it's not the most realistic movie and Jamie does the whole missionary dating thing...but I still love the movie. I'm pretty sure I cried my way through the whole second half though. But I want to watch it again!
Today was pretty much like last Sunday. I spent pretty much all day on homework. I will be SO HAPPY when this term is over! There's just this week, then "dead" week (how fun), and then finals week, then spring break! So I basically just have to get through the next couple of weeks. I don't really mind finals week. I actually kind of like it. There's no homework or essays or anything, just studying and tests. I can handle that! Unfortunately, my final project for Spanish (which I have been dreading all term) is due on Wednesday (the first draft anyway), along with a test on subjunctive (which I completely don't understand), and then the Wednesday after is when I have to give a horrid 10 minutes presentation about my final project. I'm still trying to stretch out my 4 page paper into a 6 page one, so I haven't started making a powerpoint yet. Sigh.
Ok, now time for being thankful :)
1. The girl at Kinkos today scanned a copy of my transcript onto a flash drive for me and didn't charge me for it. I think she was supposed to, but we got to talking while she was working and then she told me that it was free and to have a nice day.
2. I only have to go to Spanish class 4 more times!!
3. I guess all of the studying I did paid off, because the math midterm that I took on Friday was super easy! I hope I did as well as I'm thinking I did!
4. Ok so this didn't happen today, but I guess my mom was talking with my niece, Baylee, a few days ago about American Girl dolls or something, and Baylee said that if she could pick any of their names to have for herself, she'd pick Ashley. I just thought that was cute. :)
5. I had dinner tonight with a friend for free, because she had gift certificates! I'm always thankful for free food.
