Early Final and Froyo!

I have a lovely headache right now due to my exhausting day! I took a final today for a class that I took last semester and I was super stressed. I was in Zimbabwe last semester during finals week and unfortunately I wasn't able to take one of my finals since there is absolutely NOwhere in Africa that has a strong enough internet connection for the testing website my professor uses. I attempted to take the final but when I went to the testing website, I had to do an internet test that showed there was literally nowhere in Africa that had internet fast enough for the exam. Fun! Anywho, the professor who taught the course is in the process of retiring and emailed me last minute asking if I wanted to take my final online today! So... I crammed and made a 78%! I'm happy with my grade since I ended up making a B in the course. And then, to reward me for my last-minute studying, my lovely boyfriend took me out for frozen yogurt. I love him :) Hopefully I'll get some rest and this headache will be long gone tomorrow morning since I have lots of homework to do and emails to send in the morning!

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Melted Crayon Art

This past weekend I made TMNT melted Crayon art on a Canvas for one of Dillon's friends. One of the great things about being in a long-term, committed relationship, is that eventually our designated friends turn into mutual friends. Granted, I still call them his friends in front of him, and vice versa, but to others I get to say, "our friend." I love it! Anyway, this friend's name is Kyle and he and Dillon met in college. Kyle is a few years older than us so he's from the 80's - aka, he grew up with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. He stayed with us for a day this past weekend and we had a great time! I had no interest in seeing the new TMNT movie, so Kyle and Dillon went to see the movie while I stayed home and made this work of art and threw a couple of DiGiorno's in the oven for all of us.

Yay School

Well, yesterday I started school for this semester. I'm stressed to the max with all of the work I have to do for these classes and unfortunately, I'm also in the market for a part-time job. Fun! I'm taking a lovely list of classes this semester that includes:

--Administrative Communication

--Information Management

--Information Technology

--Operations Management

--Principles of Financial Accounting

I'm also trying to keep calm about my boyfriend and I's possible move to (wait for it...)

 

MONTANA!

I would absolutely love to pack up and leave tomorrow, but as I'm sure all of you reading this know, it's not that easy! So if anyone reads this, prayers would be much appreciated!
