Day 55 Happy: Reading something that isn't a textbook!
I decided that I wanted to re-read the Harry Potter series before school starts again and I get too busy to read them before the next movie comes out in November. It has been so long since I read the seventh book, and I only read it once, so I don't really remember what happens. I want it to be fresh in my mind before watching the movie, and I'm pretty sure I won't have time to read at all once school starts!
This afternoon, after work, I got to read some of the first book. I didn't get to read very much, but it was refreshing to read something that wasn't for school.

School's Out For Summer!! (054/365)
Day 54 Happy: I am ALL DONE with Summer classes!!
I just turned in my final papers for my Adolescent Literature class. I'm a super procrastinator. Like, the best one ever. My papers were due at 11:59 P.M. I sat at my computer and wrote my little butt off for several hours, put the finishing touches on them at 11:57 P.M. and sent the e-mail to the professor at exactly 11:58 P.M.
That's awesome.
And now I have to finish up my internship (after a week of vacation!!) which I don't really consider school anyways, and I will have two weeks after that until the Fall semester starts.
... and then the real fun begins.
Bonus Happy: I asked my lovely friend Angela to be a bridesmaid, and she said yes. We have become pretty good friends this year, and I am excited that she's going to be part of the wedding!

General Awesomeness (053/365)
Day 53 Happy: I am DONE with Criminal Justice
I am so close to being done with summer classes I can taste it. Today, I planned on coming home and studying for 7 or 8 hours after work before taking my Criminal Justice exam online. I ended up coming home early from work, because I feel like the death. I didn't feel like doing anything, much less reading ridiculously boring essays and four chapters in my textbook.
So I didn't.
Screw this, I thought (well, something like that, but this blog is generally PG), I am just going to take the test without studying. It took me about 36 minutes to take my test, and I got an 86, my second highest grade out of four exams I have taken in the class. And now I'm done. Yayyy happy.
Tomorrow I will finish up with my Adolescent Literature class and I will have an ENTIRE MONTH with no school!!

Countdown! (051/365)
Day 51 Happy: One week until my vacation!!!
I will leave for Georgia a week from today! I will be at the airport when my sister comes home from Italy, get to see my parents, and hang out with my brothers for a few days. Not only will it be nice to get away from work, internship and homework for a couple of days, but I really miss my family and love it when I get to spend time with them.
Now, all I have to do is make it through this week!

Staying In! (050/365)
Day 50 Happy: Having a nap, movies, and dinner at home.
I was so exhausted today. It was an extremely long day, and all I wanted to do when I came home from work was just hang out with Marc. I got to do just that! We made home made Chinese (vegetarian for me!) and watched some of The Lord of the Rings
before I passed out on the couch. It was exactly what I needed.
Only about a week until my mini-vacation!!

Day Date! (049/365)
Day 49 Happy: Seeing my Marc in daylight!
Between my real job, my internship and homework, I don't get to see much of my fiance at all, especially not in the daytime. Usually on Sundays, I work from 10-3:30 and he doesn't get home until 8:30 in the evening. A couple of weeks ago, he requested to get off at 2:00 today so that we could spend the afternoon together. It was so nice. We ended up going to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter (again) so that I could pick up some trinkets for my brothers and sister to give to them when I go visit at the end of the month. We had a blast, rode a few rides and hung out for the entire afternoon.
