Hey ladies how is it going? what is new and exciting with all of you?

Nothing new over here at all, really Just puttering along for the next 6 weeks (Steve reminded me of it last night ), trying to find something to do, but there's not a ton since money is a little tight at the moment 

Not too much excitement here either...unless you concider the truck breaking down and being bored at work excitement! 

The truck is fixed though...and it's gorgeous outside!  Too bad I am in here and can't enjoy it!  I am thinking a margarita, while basking in the sun would be nice!

I'm actually kind of excited. In 25 days, I'm heading down to Orlando to see my favourite cousin and her family.  Her son will be turning 5 while we're there, and Tim and I picked out some kid's train books for him, so I'm excited to give them to him.  I'll get to head to Disney a few times, and see one of my closest internet friends (we've only met in person once before, but I've known her for years!).  Then, when I get back it will only be 2 months until Tim visits, and my best friend is going to come up and visit me for a weekend in May or June, too. 

So, keeping positive.

I would join you with that margarita and basking scenario!!!! I'm looking out my huge window here in my classroom.. so beautiful. I just know it's probably perfect temperature, too! I wore a skirt and sandals in honor of the nice weather so at least I can pretend. Plus I've got my top, bracelets and earrings from London last year on, too! *sigh* 45 more days till my trip!!!

Anyway, time to get back to class. Lunch is over!

Yay Patty! Have a good trip *home*!!!!!!!!

Urgh, I wish we could have some of that here We're hovering somewhere around the 30s with clouds, I'm freezing at the moment--I can't wait until it's short and sandal weather here

Going on trips like that will definitely help--nothing blows more than sitting at home just waiting for the time to pass. Enjoy the weather, if you can shoot some of it here to Oregon it'd be much appreciated

Becca, that is exciting!  having stuff planned in between seeing Tim will definitely help.  Hopefully the time will pass much quicker.

Gottagettolondon, ok...you're on for that margarita.  I'll meet you after class! 

Kittenfish, you can join Gottagettolondon and I for margaritas...it's about 70 outside over here!

Seriously, I am leaving for a lunch break in about an hour and it's going to take everything in me to return to this place...I have lost all motivation when it comes to work, especially knowing that in several months, I won't be here anymore!

On a brighter note, going wedding dress shopping this weekend! 

I'm so jealous of your nice weather right now! It's been raining since Sunday here.

Hello ladies,

I'm still reading, just busy once again with school. It's FINALLY winding down, which is good and bad.  Good because I can't wait to go home and spend the entire summer with my boyfriend.  Bad because I have a project due Friday, two papers due monday, and another paper due thursday.  And five finals. Eek!

Anyway, I'm alive, and SO HAPPY for you, Carey and Patty! And maybe a bit jealous... haha

Last night I finally booked my flights for the summer.  By the looks of it, my dear other half will be landing on May 14th in New York.  And then we're back to Ireland together on June 28th and I'm coming home on August 18th.  I can't wait!

How's everyone else doing?

Becca, how are you holding up?

ohh i'm ready to join in the margarita drinking right about now!!

i'm absolutely swamped with work and school right now, but looking forward to spending the long weekend (we get monday off work in massachusetts for "patriots day"! woo!) in newport, rhode island with my mom. 

also, i am completely anxious and impatient right now, as david and i think we may have found the most PERFECT flat-- it's available june 1st, which would mean david would have a month to get settled/receive my things that i'll be shipping before my arrival in july, it is super close to the train station in case i decide to work in london and need to commute, and just down the street from his brother's flat.  the photos look absolutely gorgeous and we can take it furnished, something i hadn't wanted to do originally, but the furniture looks really nice and high quality, and it makes so much more sense than shipping my things, given that we aren't entirely sure where we'll be settling long-term yet.  david is viewing it tomorrow at lunch and if it lives up to what the realtor has said and the photos we've seen, we're planning to take it!!  i'm keeping my fingers crossed that nothing goes wrong and they'll give the flat to us...i would really, really, really love to have this sorted and have one less thing to worry about!!

Ohhh lily how exciting!  I hope its perfect when David goes to see it.  Let us know how it goes with that (and the time with your mom!)

Brittany - looking back at my college days, I dont know how I did all of that - paper after paper, due dates staring you in the face, tests, etc, but somehow it always came together and I am sure you will do great on all of it!  Your summer plans sound wonderful - I am the one who is jealous!  All of that time together will be amazing.  Horray for you!

Lily, that place sounds perfect!  I hope it's what you and David want.  It will be such a relief to have that out of the way too.

Brittany, I hope you make it through the last bits of school with out too much stress...I remember those days.  It all seems so overwhelming and then it's over and you wonder what you stressed so much about!  How exciting about booking your summer flights...it's getting closer!

*facepalm*

MY friend posts this in her LJ:

when I go to philly and he goes to houston, that'll be the furthest we've been apart in over 2 years.

and goes on to whine about it.

You know what?

Call me when there's a 5 hour time difference, an 8 hour plane ride, and an ocean separating you.


*sigh*

Ugh, you said it Becca!  I'm at school in DC and am utterly fed up hearing girls say "My boyfriend is all the way at Penn State..."

Um...
