First was my last week of school. Not only was it my last week of studying history, which is a sad concept, but it was also finals week, my birthday and graduation. On Thursday night we had everyone over to a beach house and Bailey and I got to have a nice graduation celebration with friends. The next day my family drove over, and Saturday was graduation. It was only once I actually started decorating my hat ("Party like it's 1773") and putting on my gown did I start getting excited and realize that this was a special moment. And it really was. Although I had a few episodes of boredom and extreme heat exhaustion, family and friends, drunk graduates, and favorite professors really made the day special.
Secondly, swim lessons. Like usual, I make a big fuss about a pretty great job. The highlight of the two weeks had to be a little boy screaming continuously for 30 minutes "I have to go poo poo" in an attempt to escape his lesson.
Third, quality time with friends and family. I got to spend long nights chatting with Sarah, and was completely blessed to have a graduation party with Bailey and Sarah where old friends and family got together for a night. Also wonderful was my family's new dedication to exercise, which saw the four of us plus a very chubby Xena walking/jogging Horseshoe in the mornings. We ended the two weeks with a hike around Pinecrest Lake, which brought back great childhood memories of fishing, oreos, and the "Enchanted Forest."
So. I feel like we are up to date. I arrived back in San Luis Obispo last Monday, am enjoying a visit from my parents, and have given up on a job in pursuit of more swim lessons later on in August. Also, this will be my last blog, as my next one will be posted on my new site. Unfortunately, I can't seem to remember my password for that one, so I will have to post that on this blog in the next day or so.
