August has pretty much been eaten up by school. There was paperwork, orientation, schedule stakeouts, and then finally actual class. I am taking 14 hours - English, Biology + Lab, Geology + Lab and American History (Post Civil War). It's a Monday-Thursday schedule, and two of the classes I share with Logan. It's been fun so far - no big assignments or anything stressful.

Photo by Quinn. That's me on the couch - Henry thought it would be fun to sleep "next to me" on the table.

Early morning tea. :)

August has gone by fast, and the light is already changing as fall creeps up on us. I love fall light, but I'm not looking forward to wearing seven layers. I shouldn't complain, though. Georgia's winters are so warm in comparison to most places in America. 

Media update! Doctor Who begins again TOMORROW. So excited. Also, The Hour (link on sidebar) is an amazing show, I highly recommend it. We started watching Prime Suspect... undecided as of right now. I think it'll prove to be good. 

Hopefully my cold/sinus infection will be better by Monday... I hate thinking that I'm spreading my sickness to all the other students. :( Already got my biology lab partner sick. On a sidenote - I've gotten good grades in all my quizzes so far! :)

I'll try to take pictures more often - been slacking in that department. September always inspires me though, it is my favorite month for photography. 

Have a lovely weekend!

thrift shop find ...+ tomatoes

Do you see this amazing cardigan thing I'm wearing? I bought it today for $3 at a thrift store. It's barely worn, soft and lovely, and best of all, it's by Kimchi & Blue! We were shopping for a black button up for Mom. I'm rifling through the medium women's shirts and blouses section, where I didn't expect to find a shirt that fit Mom, much less a barely worn, once probably $30-$60 Urban Outfitters or Anthropologie cardigan for $3.

All the photos above are by Quinn (with a little direction from me)! I love how they turned out. :) The tomatoes, of course, had to steal the scene. We were right outside the garden, so it was pretty much an imperative. 

And to end, the green beans were begging for a shot... 

Good night!

P.S. Have I mentioned the awesomeness of Misfits? Sigh.

I really love where I live. 

Some things to mention...

We've been cleaning the house before family comes to visit this weekend. I love cleaning. 

There is something about the curves and angles of a messy bed... It's so attractive. 

Found a stylish mystery novel at the library. 

I picked a million tomatoes last night, and there are still many more to come.

I passed my math placement exam, getting a 74 when all I needed was a 40 to pass.

Admittedly, I'm a little excited about taking classes.

And last but not least, Misfits is awesome (I couldn't have a blog post that doesn't mention TV, now could I?!)

Adios,
