So the Snow Days Begin

Image
Hello friends! This morning I woke up to 6 emails from Austin Peay saying that initially there would be a two hour delay and then school was canceled. And then my alarm went off far to early so I rolled over to turn it off and it was pouring snow!! Therefore, I decided to watch the snow for a bit and then read some of Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy until about 9:30 am. Today was my Vegan day so I ate a huge amount of fruit for breakfast. Deciding I should probably work on some stuff throughout my day, I got only a little done until I decided to make myself some lunch. (: It wasn't until after lunch that I really pushed myself to work on things. I wrote a scholarship essay, finished my physics homework, and printed some papers out for my mom. By 9, my family and I ate dinner (mom cooked for them, I cooked for me) and yeah. Not much happened today except to-do lists. And tomorrow (surprise, surprise) CMCSS got canceled and then APSU has a two hour delay, meaning I have no class...

Errands and To-Do's

Image
Well my weekend thus far has been filled with To-Do lists and errands. This morning I woke up at 8:15, did the dishes, made some coffee, and prepared myself breakfast. Trying to complete a couple of things off my to-do list while my mom was out at choir practice, I wrote my chosen career field Senior Seminar paper, mailed a scholarship, packaged my friend's gift, reorganized my binders, and tidied up my little nook area. At 12:15, I got dressed and made my mom and I some lunch before we headed out on our errands. My family recently got a YMCA membership so first we went and got our pictures taken for the system and got free t-shirts. Next was a stop to an ATM, then gas, and finally Fort Campbell Commissary to do grocery shopping. We managed to buy lots of Vegetarian products, fruits, and vegetables for me so that was wonderful!<3 We got home around 6, putting everything away and Mom practiced before we prepared dinner. (: Also, in the mail came an AFS 2016 calendar so that...

New Year's Eve

Hope you have a Dick Clark Rocking New Year's Eve worthy New Year's! (: This morning at 11 am, my mom had a hair appointment and got a fabulous new do. Cut, Color, Highlight, and Brows done! I managed to read some of Anna Karenina , which was cool. I'm really enjoying the book. Then, we came home to eat lunch with Alexander before going to Nashville at 5:00 to meet my dad. We ate dinner at a wonderful, fabulous french restaurant; Margot Cafe & Bar. First we had a sharable platter of cheese a bread while my parents drank some wine. For our first course, I ordered a Smoked Salmon. While the main course, I ate a Risotto. Alexander and I ordered the exact same courses and they were both so freaking delicious!! It was a great dinner! We finished with the restaurant at 7:45 and went home. <3 Mom, Alexander and I are now watching  A Christmas Cupid  while waiting for the ball to drop and Clarksville fireworks go off! (:

colder than this home

I'm I woke up morning with a hazy fog, as if I was in a dream. Woke up in a really bad mood, probably due to how my night ended last night (awful, to say the least). So I sort of laid in my bed for about an hour, scrolling through social media until I felt strong enough to get up.  I was going to make myself breakfast, but then my mom said she wanted to make a big breakfast, so I did the dishes, fed the indoor pets, and helped with breakfast. It was good. Nice to talk with Alexander and my mom.   Mom got a package this morning from this French Company that she orders from, which had two gifts for me: A Paris Umbrella and a French mug!! It was great!!!<3 My mom had Choir rehearsal around 1:30, so while she made phone calls to Greece and showered, I got dressed in my new beige boots, a beige top, and jeans. (: You know what they say, right? Always look better than you feel, makes it worthwhile. "Whoever said money can't buy happiness didn't know where to sh...
