4th of July

Summer has passed gone by super duper fast. I can't believe that its already half way over; not that I'm complaining. I'm ready to return to my normal schedule of falling asleep after 2am and running to classes. Working 9 to 6 can be pretty rough some times. Luckily my first 2 online classes are over (WOOT) and the freshman orientation is over. That means I no longer need to rush to campus and work 6:30 to whenever at the bowling alley.

I am now back to my normal sleep schedule of being in bed by 11pm. Exciting new news is that I will be starting my last summer class tomorrow and that means I will be getting out of work at 3 everyday to go attend class on Foggy Bottom. The class is international econ and I'm definitely not looking forward to it.

Life, however, hasn't been so droll these past few weeks. I've gone home, been to a baseball games, seen tons of friends and even went up to Pennsylvania. The trip was funzies, I saw a bear, a wild turkey, went for walks and swam in a waterfall. The trip was short but it was great to get out of the city.

However, probably the most exciting thing to happen this summer was this past weekend. We got an early dismissal from work, which meant that I went home and pretended to tan on the roof. After that, Jeff and a few other friends came into town! So to start off the festivities I revived my childlike self by watching Toy Story 3. We also went hiking in Rock Creek Park on Saturday and wandered around DC in the ridiculously hot weather. The best part came on Sunday when we spent it all day out on the National Mall with thousands of other people watching a concert and fireworks. The group of people we went with set up tents and a volleyball net and just hung out all day. It was great, minus the fact that it was extremely hot outside. We escaped into borders for a few hours to cool down and browse some books. I successfully managed to not get sunburned (momma should be proud) and thoroughly enjoyed the fireworks. It was the first time in years that I had actually been in the US for the holiday and it was a pretty cool experience to watch the fireworks in the nations capital.

The three day holiday ended with Georgetown cupcakes (delicious) and everyone going home :-(.

Pictures to come!!!!!
