I had a pretty awesome time this weekend...

Ok, so today wasn't great. I got a migraine and missed two classes. Some Excedrin Migraine and a nap later I am feeling better. THANK GOODNESS. 

I had a pretty awesome time this weekend, though. Shaun and I took Shadow and Kira to the Birmingham Museum of Art on Saturday. Then we met Laurel and Emily at Outback for dinner and ate some super great food. Gosh, we miss Outback. Anyway, Emily made Kira some adorable and tasty cupcakes. Laurel gave her some makeup and a Unicorn makeup pouch. My besties were both so excited to meet her and I was so excited to see them because it had been far too long.

After that we stopped at Ulta where I got to meet the lovely Vallerie in real life. She's so little like me! Such a pleasant surprise! And then went to PetCo to see the animals. Kira got to hold and play with some baby ferrets. I think she's in love. 😍

This picture is of a sculpture that is at the museum made by one of my favorite artists, Frank Fleming. I hope to own one of his pieces one day. There are so many artists I want to support once I finally get a money job. Which, speaking of, I'd better get off the Internet and see what all I missed at school today.

That feeling when...

That feeling when you're in class and you feel a migraine coming on but think "Nah, I can wait it out" but then the nausea hits and you leave class abruptly and head to Wal-Mart because you're out of Excedrin Migraine and want a Coke for your stomach and then you get home and forget that you're short so when you try to put your Coke in your loft bed you accidentally pour it all down your back and then start to fear that's not the worst thing this day has in store for you.

Today has felt like a Monday.

Today has felt like a Monday.  I woke up late, my car windows were so frozen that I had to scrape ice off so I could see to leave, I fell down outside while doing that because I'm clumsy, and on top of that I forgot to bring both my stylus AND my mouse to school with me (meaning that I feel like a toddler trying to work my laptop because that's just how I am, I guess).

I'm so glad it's been a short week and that it is Friday.  I'm about to do as much studying / homework as I can while I wait for Java class to start.  I'd work in Aleks for my math class, but you have to plot some points pretty precisely so I can't do that without my mouse and / or stylus.  But I have other stuff to do so I guess that is great.  😂

I just found out that our first game re-make is going to be Pong so that sounds fun and not too hard.  We just have to cover the basics so anything above and beyond on that will get us bonus points.  Woohoo!  😃

I hope y'all are doing great and staying warm.  I know I'm trying!  ❤

Woohoo!

Woohoo! Up to 86% on Aleks. I could be done now, but I'll do more tomorrow since I'm out of school again. Time for a break!

I've got free time...

Ugh. I've got free time to work on the Aleks project for math, but it is grueling right now. I'm just not into it. 😑

I am pretty close to getting the bare minimum of 85% done. I would still like to do much better, though. This wasn't my intention, but I am kind of wondering if I get finished before my 2 week trial is up would I have to pay for it to get my grade? 😂😂😂 I'm so cheap. Saving money would be a good motivation. Except that I would rather be napping right now. Why am I like this? 😛

Ready for this winter weather.

Ready for this winter weather. Me, Shaun, Faith, and Booka are snuggled up on the couch. Shaun is playing a game, Boo is snoring, and Faith is being weird. Everything seems to be in order here. 😂😂😂

I totally relaxed yesterday.

I totally relaxed yesterday. Painted my nails, but haven't decorated them yet.  Maybe later tonight or tomorrow.

I've spent most of this day reading, studying, and doing homework.  My initial Aleks assessment says that I know 300/377 topics for Intro to Advanced Math so that thankfully doesn't leave a ton of extra work for me to do.  We have 6 weeks to complete it to at least 85%, but I'm going to really get in there tomorrow and see what I can knock out.  Y'all know I'm shooting for an A instead of 85% (especially since this counts like a test grade), but in any case it would be great to have this one thing not hanging over my head.  I can already tell that I've got a busy semester ahead of me and I'm planning to do what I can to stay on top of things and keep my stress level down.

We're out of school tomorrow so that's good.  We're having two short weeks in a row to ease me into this semester.  No complaints here!  I hope you had a nice weekend.  ❤❤❤
