signs of summer.

my psychology professor finally figured out how to turn on the air conditioning in the classroom today.
we only have one week left of class, but i am still thankful. it was seriously so hot in that room, and sitting in there for three hours was getting to be too much. ha.
otherwise, psychology is going well. it's actually not as annoying as i anticipated. my professor has a pretty straightforward scientific approach to the subject, which i appreciate. it makes it much easier for me to stay interested in the material.

other signs of summer:
-we had corn on the cob with dinner last night. james grilled our whole meal. i think that to boys, grilling = summer. ha.
-i met erin for frozen yogurt today. i love frozen yogurt on a hot day.
-i've nearly finished off the first box of popsicles of the summer. there will be many more to follow. i'm a big fan of popsicles.
-i'm getting the urge to wear the summer dresses i've been accumulating for hawaii. i'm going to try to wait though.
-i'm no longer craving london fog on a daily basis. it's too stinking hot to drink something hot. even if it is so yummy. instead, i'm craving fruit, which is more healthy anyway.

otherwise, not a lot going on around here.
-i'm staying pretty busy with my psychology text. my midterm is tomorrow. it should really be called a 2/3term because we are 2/3 of the way done.
-also still on the hunt for cute vintage items. we had another art journal club meeting tonight. it was fun. we talked and talked and talked. we talked about where in the heck our time goes each day, but none of us came up with an answer. ha. i was really wishing that i had brought more cute stuff with me for collaging. i'm hoping to go on a treasure hunt for cute stuff this weekend. we'll see how it pans out.
-i've been reading mary poppins in order to help myself fall asleep lately. i finished it up last night and fell asleep with a smile.
-oh! and i scrapbooked! the other day, something came over me and i got a two pages finished. both of them were made using the may studio calico kit + older, already printed photos, which makes me super happy. i need to be more diligent about using up the kits. and i need to stop using the "no new photos" excuse for not scrapbooking. i was feeling a serious sense of yay! when i finally got these photos onto layouts.
here's my best effort to get some images with my point and shoot camera...
i've had this photo sitting in the to-scrap pile for a good amount of time now. it's from the fiskateer crop last november. i'm so glad mandee came. :] the layout is really meant to focus on one of the many awesome friendships i've made through scrapbooking.


these photos i have seriously attempted to get on at least three layouts now. i'm glad something finally worked out, and they are out of the to-scrap pile. :]

i'm hoping to maybe get one more layout out of this kit, and then tackle another older kit and make another layout before the next kit arrives. we'll see how i do with that.

alright. well. that's about all for now.
except one more thing... i'm wishing my dad a happy birthday today. he had to work, but i'm excited to have a celebratory dinner this weekend. :]
