I guess it has. Date on my last post was July 16. *wince* Sorry about that. I kinda got swamped by my finals and never seemed to recover.

But, school is done for summer semester. I made it out alive and walked away with a 3.57 GPA. I am quite proud of myself. Grades are as such, for those that wanted to know:

History: B
Psychology: B
Math: A
English: A

And surprisingly, the math and english scores are the ones that shocked me the most.

As for after classes ended, I haven't really been doing much of anything. I wanted to go to Writercon, but couldn't afford it. I think that's why I've been neglecting my flist lately. Reading about everyone else squeeing over going was just depressing me.

So instead, I lie around the house all day, since I'm still unemployed, and read or watch old tv shows.

I would kill to find a job. Unfortunately, no one seems to be interested in hiring part time workers. Everywhere I've applied wants full time, and I just can't do that with my school schedule. And since I waited so long to finally go back, I'm not letting that slip away from me. I will remain bored and broke to keep my grades up. My plan is to graduate within the the top 5% of my class.

I did get registered for Fall Semester, though. And it looks interesting, even if I did have to substitute a class I didn't really want to take in my science selection.

Accounting I
Geography (I wanted biology)
Computers 150
Math (no getting away from that one, is there?)

I also found out that I'll have to take 5 semesters of math, then 2 semesters of Statistics. So I plan to use a bit of my loan money to buy stock in Tylenol.

Also, for everyone in the D.C./Maryland vicinity, I'm currently scrimping together every penny I can and saving to take another vacation up that way again, most likely sometime next summer. When we get closer to the date and I know exactly when I'll be there, I want to get some stuff locked into place with meeting up and such.

I guess that's all for now, I'll report back as often as I can. I know I keep saying I'm going to post more than I do, it's just that nothing ever really happens in my life worth posting about. And who really wants to read about me lying around reading?

g'nite.

Yeah....I kept saying "maybe next semester" until I finally realized the only thing really keeping me going was my being scared I wouldn't be able to do it. So I finally got drunk enough to fill out all the paperwork, and the rest is history, which I got a B in, HA!

We missed you and your enthusiasm this weekend! You were definitely here in spirit - you were mentioned often. :)

Awww, that makes me happy. I never thought that many people even noticed me at these things.

Thank you thank you. I'm quite proud of myself. And to hear my mom, you'd think I just beat Rodney McKay for the Nobel Prize.

DC!!!!!! It's always good to see my fiance, the successful college student. *mwah*

Heee!!! We will definitely be meeting up again. And since I'll most likely have no job to get back to in a hurry, there's no reason my trip can't last longer than just the few short days I was able to squeeze out last time. I may even impose on a few people and travel around a bit.

I missed you guys too. Everyone. I'm still kicking myself so hard that I spent my vacation money to get my car fixed. Which, of course, did nothing, as it's broken again now.

It'll be okay. But, since I had been planning to go to Writercon, I had set aside this weekend with no plans, which meant a mad scrabble to do stuff, hence the massive movie watching I mentioned in a post or two. Luckily, school starts again soon, so I can throw myself into homework and pull my GPA up a little further.

How's it feel to have a smart fiance?
