The Countdown to Summer!

The countdown to summer is a time when I can start counting down how many class days I have left until finals, when to start prepping for what, and ultimately seeing if my sneaky schedule can finish before my grandmother gets back from Florida (because if you've ever met her, you'd understand why I like going home more often when she's there). Two weeks or so after I finish this semester we are expecting at least one arrival from California and maybe three (because my aunt will always come visit, but my cousins might just too), and that's when family insanity breaks loose; we all gather together for my grandmother's birthday every year (now that 3 of her 4 children live within an hour or so of her) and since it's also Memorial Day, it's sure to make things... interesting, to say the least. But it will be nice to see my cousins again (if they even show) since the last time I saw them I was just around middle school age (so if I ventured a guess... I would say about 7-8 years); but the competition is on between me and my sister for a nice slim-down, ever since she started losing weight these past few months (seriously, I love her and she looks great, but I don't want to be the fat girl of the family now!) so there are plans brewing about me and my roommate/best friend/practically brother doing this thing where we ride around Boulder all summer long (since it'll empty out significantly when spring semester ends) and playing grill-master with just about all of our food (with exception to water, I should hope, but you never know what we'll cook up next), so the best of luck to all of us health-aware-nuts!

In other news, I need to go finish getting ready before I'm late for class, and that wouldn't be worth the coding from scratch I did for two days if I miss it!

So au revoire my readers, and may all of your stories intrigue those who hear them.
