Let the Summer Begin!

April went by so quickly, i bareley noticed it! This semester was a good one, not too crazy but enough to keep me busy. Work has helped out with that too. I took my last final a couple days ago and have been catching up on things at home that got neglected all semester. I've been working on my room and bathroom, trying to create more space so that when my sister moves back home we'll hopefully both be able to fit into our tiny space. I spent today and yesterday putting together shelves and moving furniture to make space. Hopefully it will all work out as planned. My sister and I are close, but we both are stubborn and have to have things done our way. And we have A LOT of stuff!
I went down to Cedar City and Mesquite/Bunkerville to visit my friends a couple weeks ago. It was great. It made me miss SUU more than I already do. Especially the music. I miss having free concerts that i can go to every week, or just walking by the music building and being able to hear people practicing. I actually ended up getting really sick while i was down there and come home to Bronchitis and a week of forced vacation. I had to have an inhaler with a special attachment because i couldnt take a deep enough breath to use it normally. Going back to work was interesting because it was a few days before i could breathe well enough again to talk much above a whisper, and trying to get 12 girls' attention at that volume... not easy. But it worked out.
Today was a monumental day in history, well okay, not monumental... but it was a big deal to me! Lol. I watched the recap of the royal wedding this morning, while listening to much complaining from my little brother who couldn't understand why i was so interested in watching a wedding for people i don't even know. I tried to explain to him its signifiance to me, and it just didnt work. Anyway, it was cool and very touching. I was joking last night with my mom about how i had to watch my first crushes wedding and she thought that was super funny. But it was cool to be able to watch it, even if it wasn't live (I wasnt going to stay up until 2am to get to do that, I'm not THAT obsessed!). Now I'll be able to tell my daughters about it the way my mom told me about watching Princess Diana's and Prince Charles' wedding. Though hopefully this royal couple's story will not end as quickly or as tragically as the last one did.
Now I'm on to summer. I've already started my annual summer reading frenzy and made a list of book that i want to get to. Baseball season has begun, though it has been a cold and wet one without very many games yet because of the muddy fields. Hopefully the weather will decide to cooperate soon and the season will be a good one. Work will hopefully keep me busy so i don't go crazy with boredom like i do most years. And at the end of the summer, i will begin my second to last semester of my bachelor's degree. After 5 LOOOOOONG years, it will finally be over May 2012. Only 9 more classes!! I'm so happy!
