Hello Summer Vacation!

Hello Bloggers!

I'm back and ready to take this summer by storm.  I took my last final on May 6th, and came back home by May 7th to celebrate my dad's 60th birthday!  We went out to a nice dinner to celebrate the big day. I have received my final grades & I'm happy to say I've made the Dean's List!  Junior year was a hard year, personally and with my school work, so I'm happy to see that all my hard work has paid off.  Now I can enjoy my summer break that I deserve.

Since I've been home, I've unpacked and repacked all my belongings from school and cleaned my room.  Next year I am living in an off-campus house, so I want to have all my things packed just in case I want to take a day trip down, on my own, to start moving myself in.  I've also helped my mom clean some things around the house that we've been meaning to attack (such as our big box of old hair accessories).

Some highlights since I have been home have been going up to my sister's future college for a fashion show, celebrating Mother's Day with my family, and going to see my sister perform in her Singer's Concert.

I was getting a little bit antsy at this point and looking for something exciting, so this past weekend's trip to Atlantic City was just what I needed!  Two of my best friends are twins, and they invited me and my other 3 best friends to Atlantic City with them along with their family to celebrate their 21st birthday.  We drove down to Atlantic City Friday afternoon and stayed until Sunday afternoon at Harrah's Resort and Casino.  This was my second time going down to AC with the twins and staying at Harrah's.  I was very excited to go away for the weekend and have an excuse to get dressed up, but its definitely a little hard to be in AC when you're not 21.  However, we enjoyed great dinners on Friday and Saturday nights and awesome breakfasts on Saturday and Sunday morning, and even got to do a little shopping at the outlets Saturday afternoon.  

Here's a picture from Saturday night's dinner at Bill's Burger.

It was definitely a great start to the summer, which I'm hoping will be filled with many great memories! Can't wait to share with you all what the rest of the summer holds! :)
