Avoiding Death during Dead Week
Dec. 3, 2013—In just under 5 days, I will begin the grueling week long marathon that is exam week. With a total of 5 exams to take during the 7 day period, it's going to be an unpleasant week.
Baby Love :)
Jun. 3, 2013—The first month of my summer adventures will have to come to you in 3 parts. That's how awesome-filled it's been. Part one: Pennsylvania.
Vacation All I Ever Wanted
May. 3, 2013—I've been on summer break for about two days now, and what a two days they have been.
