Well, I'm back. I apologize to those who kept up with me, I didn't really mean to just drop off the face of the earth. I'm starting a new year here at the big ol' school of learning, and I'm oh so excited. I moved into my new apartment, loaded up the car with gas, stocked the pantry with horrible, unhealthy food, and now I can finally sit down and tell about my amazing summer.
I made a deal with myself when I arrived home and unpacked my bags back in May. I told future me, "Hey. Do something this summer. Make memories. Help people." So I did. I worked for 47 hours a week, volunteered at the local vet clinic for 20, and tried to spend as much time as possible with my family. It was a blast. I'm sure some of you have been watching MDR's blog, and I was right there with him the whole time.
It's amazing how much I love my family. Some would call it clingy, others weak, but I honestly would give the world to fulfill my dreams with them by my side. Luckily, four hours really isn't that far in case of an emergency. Haha
I start school and work on Monday, and I am beyond excited. Class is going to be outrageously tough, but I figure I can handle it. Just those pesty sciences no one can ever get away from, haha. I've already cooked a couple meals in my new kitchen, and I can tell it wont be happening as often as I would like, what with food expenses and such. Oh well. I can't wait to catch up with all the blogs I've been missing, and I hope everyone has a great Fall season.
Oh! And if anyone has any tips on growing a garden.... apartment size.... please let me know! I'm really excited for some tomatoes... or whatever it is you grow in a Fall garden. If anyone ever needs anything, don't hesitate to ask. I'm just a comment or email away.
I'll be posting tons about my experiences here, since now I can be a little more productive :)
Have a great evening!

Thanks Peggy! It's gonna be a treat.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kymber! I did learn a ton, and it was so much fun. I am veryyyy excited about my apartment, and the herbs are fine even if I leave the windows open?? Thanks so much :)
oh yes - the herbs will be just fine with the windows open!!!! if you plant marjoram, chammomile, sage, basil and mint - your apartment will smell divine. and one leaf from each torn up in a cup, pour boiling water, cover, let steep for 5 mins - makes a delicious and health-ful tea.
