New Blog!

Really. I have a new blog with actual content, and not just lists. Check it out!

http://www.thebookguardian.blogspot.com

However, speaking of lists:

Semi-annual sales

Sexy shoes on clearance

Unexpectedly getting 20% off

Flirting with the cashier, who then uses your expired $10 gift card (it only expired last month *eyelash batting*)

Fun shopping outings with the roommate

Winning a distance award with a paper airplane, even if it is Shortest Distance

A day at the beach

Not getting a sunburn

Keeping my room totally clean for a week!

A night at home with very little responsibility

Hugs

I Love DC!

Wow. Haven't been here for awhile. I missed my blogiversary, birthday, Mother's Day, Earth Day, and probably a lot of patron saint days. I guess it's a good thing I'm not Catholic. However, today is Flag Day! Let's celebrate!

Why I love (am grateful for) living here:

I'm smack in the middle of the East Coast, and there are so many things within a day's drive.

Perfect mix of suburban, rural, and urban - all within 30 minutes.

Weather. Real weather. When it rains, it actually rains!

Southern food and culture

Other great things:

Duck Beach

Cute, new swimsuit

An AWESOME roommate

Newly redecorated house

My birthday didn't totally suck this year

Learning new lessons, and being able to afford the expensive ones

Getting accepted to grad school

Fazookie (trust me, it's good)

Cute hair (and a great hairstylist)

My dancer winning a CAPPIE

LUSH

Paying things off

Being in charge of me

SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPIALIDOCIUS

Singing

Dancing

Boogie boarding

My sister

My parents

Netflix

Clean laundry


I think that'll do for now. I'll try to blog more in the future. Also, I'd love to know who actually reads this thing, so post a comment and say hi!

Life is good. :)

It's already a good day!

I haven't even had lunch yet, and today rocks!

My GRE score is good enough for the MLIS program I want

I get to work for the Wicked National Tour in Baltimore for a few weeks

I happen to look really cute (though the only person I've seen so far is the office mail guy)

I'm just in a really good mood. This is great news!
