this week alone i have had a research essay due worth 50% of my grade, 2 presentations and an assignment. yikes. i still have to complete the assignment and do one of the presentations tonight... it seems like i have non stop homework. i keep telling myself i only have 16 more days until i am done university forever. unfortunately, those 16 days are packed FULL or projects, essays, assignments and exams. yuck.
anyways, i decided that i needed a bit of a break; hence, the blog entry.
this weekend, although i was incredibly strapped with school, i did manage to run one errand out of necessity - i was able to pop into crate and barrel with jesse to get a gift card for a bridal shower i had to attend. generally jesse hates crate and barrel trips. i can understand his hate - although i love almost everything about crate and barrel trips (honestly, the store is just full of such beautiful and interesting things), 90% of the products they carry are incredibly over priced "wants" rather than affordable "needs" that they seem to do an incredibly good of job brain washing you into believing are a necessity in your home. well for once, i was not the one that was brain washed by their incredible merchandising skills - jesse was. i know, hard to believe. i never thought the day would come that jesse of all people would get sucked into the crate and barrel vortex but it has happened. on saturday morning, we were not able to leave the store until he bought an incredibly cute set of dog bowls for emi. to his credit they were on sale, but since everything is super expensive they were still over priced considering emi will only be able to use it for maybe 6 months.
