Finals, Birthday, and Home

Okay, so here's for the update on my life for pretty much the entire month of April.  I had the most stress-free finals week that I've ever had. For three of my classes, we just had to present on things that we had finished before finals week. For another one, we had an open-book, open-note, take-home final, which was way easy. And for French, there was absolutely no way to study for the final. So I had a finals week of no studying. So instead, I got to actually work on packing, which I finished on time, for once, even with my parents coming in a day earlier than I had originally expected.

So my Mom and Dad came and helped me move out of my apartment (a few days before I had to be out, which was nice), and we got to relax. Thank you, Mom and Dad! We went out to relax by going out to eat with Carrie and Nathan and their girls, which was lots of fun. And then we went back to the hotel.

So now for my birthday. It was really low-key. We woke up, got dressed, and then I got one of my birthday presents, a Kindle Touch to replace the Kindle that died on me. I was pretty excited about that. Then we went to go hang out with Carrie for a little while. It was good to get to see her one more time before heading back home for the summer. Then we headed to the airport, where our flight was delayed due to a malfunctioning airplane. We finally did get to fly out, though, and we headed home. Once I got home, I got to have some cheesecake, and Zachary had a surprise for me.

He got me a mockingjay pin, from The Hunger Games (which I wore when we went to go see the movie again as a family). 

It's good to be home. Savannah and Zachary are as entertaining as ever. I particularly enjoyed the fake mustaches that they got to wear at William's birthday party.

I am glad to be home, and I'm looking forward to a great summer!
