The Waterfall Braid

This post is dedicated to my dear friend Abbey Fables, who requested a new post on my blog so she could take a break from studying :) So if you really want a break from studying, try out this new hairstyle I found. It's called the waterfall braid. I'm still trying to perfect mine so I'll post a picture once it looks decent.

We have another test Thursday so maybe something exciting will happen between now and then that I can blog about, or maybe I'll come across another fun tutorial :)

God Bless!

I wrote this as a daily reminder for myself. I think these are simple truths we often forget.

Summer Fun

Many things have happened since I wrote last. One thing I am not particularl proud of is making my first B in grad school. Boo! I know that sounds a little weird but I was shooting for all A's since I went two very long semesters with perfect grades. What makes it worse was being only 2 points from an A. Anyway, I'm pretty much over it now and hopefully that will be my last B (I'm crossing my fingers and praying hard).

In other news, Jon and I made a quick visit to Nashville to see U2 in concert. It was pretty much the coolest concert I have ever been to. The set was unbelievable and obviously U2 was amazing! I only knew like 5 songs but Jon seemed to know them all. He was super pumped about going and he thoroughly enjoyed himself. I had a great time but I probably would have had even more fun if 1) we weren't packed like a can of sardines in a million degree weather; 2) the bathroom line had been a little shorter; and 3) I knew more U2 songs. Good and bad though, It was definitely an experience I will never forget and I highly recommend going to see the U2 360 tour.

Also, yesterday was the 4th of July! I didn't do much of anything except homework, eat bbq, and watch fireworks. My family, Jon, and I watched the "Thunder on the Mountain" fireworks from Highland Avenue (I definitely recommend this spot). We were able to easily get out of Birmingham and we had a perfect view of the Vulcan. I definitely got my fill of patriotic songs and America love, I mean, who doesn't love that once a year?

I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer! God Bless!
