My Birthday Weekend

This past weekend I went with my sister to good ole Caliente. We had a lot of fun going to "Lincoln County Idol," the town picnic, the softball games, BBQing, and all the other things that small towns do over Memorial Weekend. It was totally worth the 7 hour drive @ $4 a gallon! I sometimes wish I still lived in Cali, it really is a cool place. All of my city friends find it ridiculous that I would ever consider moving back there, but I think anyone who has ever lived there is a little reminiscnet of that lifestyle.

On Tuesday, I turned 25, which rounds up to 30! I had an awesome day. Jamin cooked me breakfast in bed, sent me roses, and got me the gift I have been dying for. Then at school, I got sang to like a million times by my students. Little kids are so funny with birthdays! We also went out to a very nice dinner and went and did a couple of things I have been wanting to do for a while. Thanks to everyone who called/text to wish me a happy birthday! It is so nice to be remembered!

School

Jamin and I both finished finals this week, and let me tell you, it is so good to be done! I am pretty much a professional student-I have been going to school for SOOOO long.
It feels so weird not to have a million things to do. I keep thinking I should be working on something, but for once I can just sit and waste time when I get off work. I definitely like that aspect, as I am pretty lazy by nature (just ask my Mom!)
The unfortunate part is that I start summer school again in 2 short weeks. I guess I will try to enjoy my stress-free days while I can.
