Went to the same café as last time, it was so much less crowded, but I think I actually prefer the buzz of a lot of people 😅 summarized one lecture on Chemodynamics of Pollutants 💫👌🏼✏

04.27.2019—My last class of freshman year was yesterday. Admitted student day for the Class of 2023 is today. Time flies!

3 June 2019 | I spent some time reading in the shade of a lilac bush in a garden near my husband’s school today and it was absolutely marvelous. I’ve recently wished I could be swept away to bucolic rolling hills spattered with rain, but today’s stroll has me relatively contented. Only a few more weeks left until we move so I’ll be trying to make the most of all the beauty here before we venture onwards!
