Favorite Food:
Raspberries! I've found a place that sells them fresh and cheap! It's awesome!

Books Read:
- I Am Number Four by Pittacus Lore - Decent. Not my favorite, but I did enjoy it after a slow beginning. -
- The Hero and the Crown by Robin McKinley - Wonderful! It's a reread, and it was just as magical the second time! -
-The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan - Such a fun novel. It's meant for a younger audience, but it was still good! -
- Prized by Caragh M. O'Brien - SO wonderful! It was my first ARC, and it was amazing! I LOVED it! -
- Tithe by Holly Black - Good enough by the end, but the beginning was a bit too raunchy for my liking. I ended up pretty invested in the story though. -
- Book of A Thousand Days by Shannon Hale - Another reread. Such a cute story. Not my favorite of Hale's, but it's still a favorite on my bookshelf! -
- Capt. Hook by J.V. Hart - So clever and fun! I had so much fun reading this book again! -

TV Shows Watched:
- LOST - I got the urge to watch all the madness again. Still as confusing as it once was. -
- Chuck - Alyson and I have been watching it together. Man, I love this show! It's so quippy! -

Overall Impression:
It always astounds me how the months with the least amount of highlights are the ones where I am the busiest. I've been working so hard these past two weeks and it's been very rewarding. And exhausting. Being an adult is super scary, and was very much on the forefront of my mind this month. But I think I did a pretty good job at keeping it together and sucking it up.

Always enjoy reading your hindsight reviews of each month. Sounds like it was quite a trying month with a great reward at he end. I'm so proud of you. How did last week go? How do you like teaching?
