'round here

Happy first official weekend of Summer!

It’s hard to believe it’s only been summer here for 5 days. Some of you might be asking what the heck the last 2 months were?? Oh yeah..just Mississippi hotness. Doesn’t matter what season we’re in, it’s always more hot here than cold. But that’s okay by me. I like summer. I’d really like it if I could lay by the pool like last year. Oh well, maybe in 2014;)

Mid-terms are next week for me. I have a test every day. The funny thing is, I haven’t been nervous or anxious about any tests taken so far. I think the pressure and weight are off. I don’t have to make A’s. but I also don’t have to make C’s. I think I’ll be a B (for Best) girl this go round. And it’s a-ok by me!

I’m still enjoying yoga several times a week. I find it crucial to my over-all well being and mental state. Full time students, if you are reading this, GET UP AND STRETCH! It gets so easy to just move from seat to seat (classroom to study room) that we forget to move! Our bodies would be so thankful if we just did some simple stretches daily. My neck and right side of my back are already hurting. And I have 3 more years of this! So, I’ve made yoga a number one top priority while in grad school--more important than running even. Although I’m still running a good bit too.

Here are some blogs from last week that are MUST READS! I’m serious. Just too good not to take the 3-6 minutes to read.
