Back for a Bit

So since Nate got back, I've basically been there every day, which is why my posts are so sporadic. Sorry. BUT I found out that he isn't going away for any more band camps because the other school that he teaches at has their camp at their school (lame). It works for me, though, because I get to see Nate on a much more regular basis than I first thought.

So I finished Better than Beauty, and to be honest, I was slightly disappointed in it. At first it had good tips and everything, but then it just became a bit snobby and kinda obvious, like, for example, saying not to speak ill of people while speaking ill of a hypothetical person for speaking ill of someone else. It had a few good pointers, but it got to the point that I kept putting off reading it because it was really tedious.



I'm almost done with HP (I'm just after the 2nd task), and it shouldn't take me long to finish it. I plan on spending some good quality reading time today. I'm actually really disappointed in my reading list progress. I've only gotten through 1 full series (10 books), half of another (3.5 books) 2 novels, and 4 tip books, which don't even really count. I'm not even halfway through my reading list, which is a lot more reasonable (i.e. shorter) than last year's. Oh well. I'm gonna finish HP and then borrow a bunch of novels from the library. Hopefully I'll be able to do a lot of reading in the next 3 weeks.

So two of my friends from home, Katie (not the one I'll be living with) and Kari (who I'm kinda not too fond of, but whatever), are coming to visit me this weekend. I'm really excited to see them, since I haven't really talked to anyone other than Nate, Megan, and Stefanie in the past few weeks. Well, that's a lie, I had a texting conversation with Amanda (a former roommate that I still like) this morning, which was nice. But I'd like to do things with people, like walk around downtown or go to the beach. They'll be staying at my apartment, so I'm doing my best to clean it up and make it smell nicer...not that it's disgusting, I just want them to be blown away by the awesomeness of my place. That probably wouldn't happen if it stunk.
