Study, Study Study........

This right here is literally what my last few weeks of school--and the family room table--look like. It is also what I have been staring at for the last two hours. As this semester comes to an end, I have test after test, followed by finals (aka more tests). I feel like all I have been doing is studying..... somehow though, the amount of studying and homework I have left doesn't seem to be diminishing at all. It just doesn't make sense one bit.

On a positive note, summer is just around the corner. I may not be able to see it right now, but I know it's there.....somewhere.....maybe hidden under all of these books. I was planning on taking Quantitative Chem this summer. It's a class that I have been dreading. After reading the teacher's reviews (let's just say the were not the best) I decided I should probably wait and take the class with another teacher. I really think it worked out for the best though. I am going to enjoy my summer without cramming another REALLY hard class in there. So on that note, it's back to studying!

Daffodils




I absolutely love Daffodils. They are just such unique looking, yet bright and happy flowers. While I know that they are a popular flower, I first discovered them about a year ago. One of the cheerleaders I coached gave them to me at the cheer banquet. While it was such a simple gift, it was my favorite! I just think they are so beautiful. So now every spring, I look for them at the grocery store (Trader Joe's sells them, and they are really inexpensive).

My semester at school is coming to an end, and while I am SO excited for summer, there are a lot of tests and assignments due before my much anticipated break. It's easy to get stressed out about, but these flowers are like a nice relaxing breath of fresh air. Every time I walk by the kitchen table, I can't help but stop and admire them. This miniscule pause in a rushed day is so nice.
