Nope, Still Not Dead

By -
The past near-month of internet silence in GIFs, because I hardly use them but actually really love them:

School.


Stress.


Work.


Exhaustion.


Graduation (My Parents).


Graduation (My Friends).


Graduation (My Church).


Graduation (Me).


More School.


Oh yeah, don't forget a lot of The Fault In Our Stars movie-hype YouTube videos.




Aaaand... more school.


I decided not to go on that missions trip...


...so I just opened an Etsy shop for my necklaces.


Then I had one week left to finish one Literature test, two Chemistry tests, several Chemistry assignments, two Literature essays, and a Grand Research Paper. I could do this. Totally.


Except then the Friday night before the bus left on Monday morning, Mom said the church had a camp scholarship for me and I should totally go I mean we can work out your job and get all that junk done right totally we can.


The reaction she probably wanted/expected:


The reaction she got:


Soooooo then a crazy weekend in which I packed, finished all the Chemistry and all the Literature and sadly only 1/4 the Grand Paper...


...followed by a week of camp, which was basically:


Also UGH THOSE WILDS STAIRS.



And then I got sick halfway through camp. And came home sick and half-dead with sleep deprivation.


Oh yeah, did I mention I still had 3/4 of the Grand Paper left to write?


So I will be slaving over a paper, trying not to break things/hurt people at work in my state of klutziness, and recovering from whatever-this-camp-junk-is.

Until next time I blog.

Until the day I finally turn in the paper and am actually, officially done with school.

UNTIL THEN.

    Sleep. Supposedly it is important. I have my doubts. Of course, if it is, you can always just sleep for a week when everything is over.

      I think I may finally have caught up on sleep... is there even such a thing as caught up on sleep? o.O

Now alone, Levi is determined to rescue what remains of his people, even if it means entering the Safe Lands, a walled city that seems anything but safe.

Firmoo: Global Online Optical Store (Review and Giveaway!)

One thing you, my lovely readers, may not be aware of - or may be confused about - is that I wear glasses.  Most of the images on my blog show me wearing my lovely Vera Bradley glasses, although my main photo (see me in the green dress in the right sidebar?) was taken while I was wearing contacts. My entire family actually wears glasses, contacts, or a combination.  That adds up to a good deal of money in eye doctor appointments, prescriptions, and new glasses - lens and frames - and contacts.  So when Firmoo , an international online glasses company, approached me about a review and giveaway, of course I said yes!
