....is frigging awesome! I actually woke up this past Monday at 0830, panicked that I was late for class....and then realized there was no class. Best feeling ever! I only have to go to 4 seminars this summer (yay co-ops!) so I got off easy.
I realize this has no bearing on anyone's life, but I was feeling the urge to reach out One more semester, woot!

I'll enjoy it more in a few weeks when I'm done with micro and math! :) Enjoy!

When summer break started for me, I couldn't help but open my fall books. But, it's been over a month now and I put them away so I can truly relax. It is so nice not to have to get anything done, I'm starting to actually enjoy it.. but it took a while! lol

Your summer just started?! I've been on summer for a month and its AMAZING! When I was slaving away, I just wished for a day where I can sleep in, lay out in the backyard, watch my desperate housewives dvd's... LOL. Now it is reality, and I'm just so relaxed and thankful to have a "normal" life. The minute I got done with finals, I started working out and eating healthy and I've lost 5 lbs so far. It is so nice to be able to take care of myself once more. I did start going through my NCLEX review books, but boy is it hard to keep focus when it is 80 degree outside!

I graduated May 7th, and my job start date isn't until the end of July or beginning of August..so I've sorta been forced to take a summer break! I'm trying to enjoy it, it's the last one I'll ever have
We're on a 5 term system that stinks! It was so hard sitting through class without staring out the window at the sun We don't go back till after Labor Day, but ugh....those last few weeks were the longest, ever. Technically I have 2 more terms left, but it's the equivalent of roughly one semester.
That Guy, you speak the truth! My only problem is, I've gotten so used to working 2300-0730 and going straight to class.....I'm usually not even tired when I get home. It's getting better though. I can feel the pull of laziness making me fall asleep faster
I'm looking forward to a long weekend somewhere on a beach in August. The oil spill is making me scramble around for alternate locations I've been looking at Maine. A cottage, sound of the ocean, and my Kindle - can't wait!
