The perfect end to undergrad

I've been pretty busy the past few days unpacking all of the junk that I brought home from Wolf Village, and I still don't understand how it all fit into such a tiny room. Oh well, it's one of those unsolvable mysteries I guess. I'm also going through what was already in my room at home to get rid of all the things I will never use again; I'm going to donate them or give them to my stepdad to try to sell at the neighborhood yard sale. Things like my Will Smith cds, journals I never wrote in and will never write in (I'm not very good at that sort of thing, as evidenced by how frequently I write in this blog...), jewelry I never liked or don't wear... those things. I think I'm going to be trading bedrooms with one of my siblings this summer since I have the biggest bedroom, and I'm going to live in Durham after August or so; I don't want to be moving random junk around :o)

Now, I usually at least try to be humble, but I destroyed senior year (as far as grades go); I worked hard and I'm proud of myself for doing as well as I did. In fact, I've destroyed the past 4 semesters; pretty much once I got into my major classes, I loved them all, so I did really well in all of them. I'm such a nerd. That's why I'm going to take 5 more years of school (probably only 2 or 2.5 years of those will have classes though).

See? Destroyed.

I bought a graduation dress yesterday with Cait! It was 55% reduced and cost $37, so that was pretty exciting. I'll post pictures of it when I'm wearing it at graduation :o) It's halter-style and a lighter blue with white flowers and then navy "accents" I guess you would call them, but I'm not really good at describing clothes.

Today I'm going to be washing my mom's car now that water restrictions are lowered; it's part of her Mother's Day gift I suppose. Yesterday my brother and I bought her four hanging geraniums that are light purple- very pretty! They're hanging out on our back porch already and I'm sure I'll be able to enjoy them when I go out there to read. I've started re-reading some of the books we read in high school that I didn't like then but think I would like now. Some books are just not going to be interesting for 14 year olds; right now I'm reading Jane Eyre and I like it so much more than I did in 9th grade.

Well, I should get started on the car-washing and room-organizing. Only 3 days til graduation! 5 til my birthday! and 6 til our anniversary! What a happy week :-D
