The End

This chapter of life in DC is quickly coming to an end. After turning in my final papers, it really feels like it is over. Leaving DC is bittersweet. I going to miss most everyone in the program, and everyone at the Georgetowner (new issue online!). But as I start to think about all that the summer has to offer visions of a sweet baby boy, weddings and a new internship spin though my head. This semester was an incredible experience and I am so thankful for everything I learned and the relationships I made.

Easter weekend was SO much fun in Raleigh with Wes and Nikki. Their new house is gorgeous, and THE best place to watch movies. Yes, that theatre room is 'pretty dang sweet'. It was great to spend the weekend my favorite brother and sister-in-law, as we celebrated the Good News of Easter. Wes made some incredible food, and we shared a lot of laughs.

Today I was supposed to go to a fashion show with a girl from the office. Although the show fell through I ended up spending the entire day at the office hanging out and having a great time with everyone! I have been putting off saying goodbye to everyone for two weeks now, and will continue when I go back in Thursday to have the girls look over my resume.

The past couple days in DC have felt like summer, and it has been wonderful!
I went on a walk after finishing my papers to enjoy the weather and snap these pictures. I figured it wont be long before the national mall is no longer in my backyard.

Time flies. Make the most of every single moment!

The Young and the Restless

Here's a wrap of the past week.

Work.

Yupp, thats it. No more to say because besides my mac and I spending a vast amount of quality time together nothing exciting has had time to take place.

Well that's not entirely true. I soaked up every last minute I had at the Georgetowner. My last day was so much fun! I'm going to miss everyone more than I like to think about!

Today was quite possibly the worst day ever. I spent nine hours on my research paper. And still have nine pages to go. I will spend all day tomorrow locked up in the apartment like I did today until that paper is done, even if it kills me.

I just keep thinking, this is it. The final push until it is all behind me and I have summer to look forward to.

Two weeks.

Talk about time flies when you're having fun.

Well Kamanda and I are Facebook chatting, and right now that is so much more appealing than writing. My brain is fried. Sorry for the brevity of this post, I hope you can understand the need to save all writing ability for tomorrow.

Its Been Too Long

I'm contemplating setting an alarm on my Blackberry that goes off every two days to remind me to blog.

Yes, life has gotten that crazy that I literally need bells and whistles to remind me to get things done.

The biggest culprit is the weather. Spring sprung, disappeared for a few days, and then decided to come back and lift my spirits. Our community dinner was a picnic on the mall at the beginning of the week, on a 79 degree day, not bad.

Life in the District has been great, stressful, yet enjoyable.

Next week is my last week at the Georgetowner. I can't think about it too much or I cry. Our publisher Sonya and I were talking about it today and she told me that I have a lot of fans here, and to call her as soon as I graduate. I don't want to leave.

Two weekends ago I went to New York City with Gretchen, Mama Janet, Meredith, and Jacqueline. It was amazing. Ready to live there.

This past weekend Daddy came to visit! It was so much fun. We went to the Newseum, the movies, saw the Cherry Blossoms (before getting hailed on), ate cupcakes, watched basketball and went to a Nationals game. He didn't want to leave, and I thought for a second he might move to DC for four weeks.

Four weeks. Holy word. Its going to be a miracle if I procrastination doesn't get the better of me.

Sunday night was the Weezy concert. Gretchen and I had the best time, we're still talking about how we saw him every time a song pops up on our itunes.

Colton Wesley is eight months old today. I can't believe it. I got to see him crawl on skype a couple weeks ago. I can't wait to eat him up when I get home! He's been a sick boy lately, but he probably just misses his auntie.

This weekend is going to have to focus on my research paper. Sunny skies stay away!

Well, I've been writing this from work, so maybe I should get back. Gotta go help Ari load the van with papers. Check out the new issue online!
