Spring Break! Days 70-76

Let's be honest for a second. I have no idea what happened when last week, so I'm shoving all of last week into one (somewhat coherent) post.

Johnny and I decided to be adventurous and make tandoori chicken on Monday. It was absolutely amazing!

On Monday and Tuesday, the internet at work was down, which led to a lot of waiting around. Eventually I just decided to work from home.

Campus is extremely beautiful when no one is around.

On Wednesday, I insisted that we go out to celebrate the beginning of spring break (for me, at least). I love to celebrate with Mexican food! Johnny got the nice looking meal; I got the one that looks like Mexican food vomited all over the plate.

The restaurant also had 2-for-1 margaritas and 32 ounce beers. This is where the night both got fun and went downhill. It was no big deal though, because I had a four day weekend. This is also where I run out of pictures...

I spent Thursday working on homework at the library like a true nerd.
On Friday, I went into work to try to win free beer in a contest we were having. I came in second-to-last. I also had lunch with my dad. It's always nice to catch up with family.
Saturday was a low-key day spent in pajamas with coffee and Mad Men. Eventually I got dressed to enjoy corned beef and cabbage with Johnny's family.
Sunday saw a trip south to celebrate the wedding of a good friend from work.

47/365: Miscellaneous from the week

I got access to a new picture editor this week, and I finally tested it out. I love that I can do some of the more vintage effects now that have been giving me trouble in Photoshop Elements. I'm too cheap to get the real version right now. I'm going to eventually, though, even just to have access to Totally Rad Actions.

At some point this week we were at Starbucks studying. I love going out to study, but I hate it when we end up at this table. It's in a sectioned-off area that is easily 20 degrees colder than the rest of the store. I  need a parka to study in there! As usual, I had stopped reading at this point and was just taking pictures. Terrible student, I know.

The USF library has some really old books if you go digging enough. How am I supposed to learn finance with these old books, USF?

46/365: We finally get our time

Johnny and I finally had our Valentine's Day yesterday. Thanks to an old gift card I had laying around, we were able to go out to Bonefish Grill for dinner. In typical style, I forgot my camera, but my phone managed to get a halfway decent picture of the food. I had grilled mahi mahi with chimchurri sauce, garlic mashed potatoes, and garbanzo beans with turkey sausage and spinach. Johnny had spicy shrimp pasta and a bowl of crab and corn chowder.

42/365: Johnny's Wanderlust

Johnny spent a month in Europe in 2010, and it's one of his most cherished memories. So, for his birthday last year I got canvas prints done of the three places he visited: Paris, Barcelona, and Rome. These hang above our couch in the living room. I love looking at them and thinking about when I finally get to travel abroad.

41/365: I'm terrible at studying

Johnny and I tried studying today in our favorite graduate business lounge. I lasted about 20 minutes before spending the next three hours on pinterest. In my defense, I'm nearly four weeks ahead for class, so I can afford a slacker weekend right now. This is me outlining a chapter on long-term brand management.

36/365: Boyfriend has a cute nephew

Johnny has a cute nephew, when he isn't crying because the tall guy (Johnny) is trying to pick him up.

34/365: Some much needed pampering

Johnny pampered me today and did my nails for me. I feel so lucky to have a guy who is willing to paint my nails, especially considering how terrible I am at the DIY manicure. This is my favorite color, a mint shade from Sephora. This day has been amazing so far: lattes, sweatpants, pinterest, and the puppy bowl, of course. We're heading out to a superbowl party soon, but until then I'm going to enjoy vegging out for the first time in four weeks. I'll start on my brand management reading tomorrow. I don't even start that class until Thursday.
