Hello, hello

Sorry for my total lack of posts lately. But between finals, papers, grief, and a complete lack of energy I just haven't/ hadn't had the energy to put any time into my blog. I wasn't completely myself for awhile. But now...

School's Out For Summmmmerrrrr!

well, technically it's been out for about a week and a half but still...
Thank you Alice Cooper for inspiring that one ;).

I'm so excited to begin this long stretch of freedom ahead of me. I've got plans and I want to make this a summer to end all summers! haha. And I'm so glad that I have some time off now to regroup and to just do what I do. :)

Here's to summer and all of the endless possibilities I have always felt it brings.

Cheers!

Much love,

Kaitlyn

WHAT A DAY

Well....

Today was certainly an interesting day.

I got up at the usual time and wished very sincerely with all my heart that I could just crawl back under the covers and let sleep's blessed peace claim me. Alas, I had to get going. It was my own fault for being so tired and I could NOT under any circumstances miss classes today.

You see, last night I pulled my very first (almost) all-nighter! I say almost because I did actually manage to finish slightly before I had to "get up" so squeezed in approximately two hours of sleep :(.

And for the record, I don't understand how people manage to do it on a regular basis. I managed to get all my school work done, yes, but paid the price all day long, stumbling from class to class, squinting at the bright lights, and trying to take coherent notes.

I will definitely not be pulling one of those again anytime soon...my sanity is much too valuable.

Thank goodness for my sister Callie. If she hadn't been able to drive me to and from campus there would probably have been another accident littering the highway (because I couldn't see straight).

So, thank you again Beanie for saving my life :).

I cannot even begin to explain how happy I am that this week is behind me now. Not taking classes on Friday's is such an amazing thing. I'm not sure how I managed to do it for so long; three day weekends are wonderful :D. I had so much to do this week and was so stressed and overwhelmed the entire time that now I feel totally wiped out.

I'm definitely going to be spending time taking care of me this weekend. I think it's time to have another Lord of the Rings day. That would make me so very happy :).

I can only hope that everyone else's week went better than mine.

Happy Thursday!

xoxo
