Last Day Summer Semester

Well, today is the last day of school for the summer semester and Blake and I are so excited! I could barely sleep the night before the last day of finals because I get too excited! Finals went well!

After I got my finals done, I went to the school bookstore to return my two biology books. For my zoology class I had a lab book and a text book that I had to buy for over $260. I had returned the lab book earlier that week(on Tuesday) with some other text books because I wanted to return them before the bookstore filled their quota. Well, when I tried selling back my zoology book and they said that they couldn't buy it because it didn't have the lab manual with it. I told them that I had sold it earlier that week on Tuesday and no one said anything about selling the lab and lecture book back together. When the cashier told me that they wouldn't give me money back I started to tear up (Remember that I have had a stressful week with little sleep). Then all the ladies in the room started thinking up ways that I could sell back my book. I was suppose to get $142 back from my zoology books. Finally they had me go downstairs to talk with the head hancho guy of Text-Books. When I talked to him, the best he could do was $80 if he ordered another manual to go with the lab book. Then we said that he would go look through the boxes on the day that I sold the lab book and he told me he would call me. An hour and a half later he called and told me he found the lab book. I was so happy! I went back to the school and they bought everything back from me. It was a frustrating process because it seemed like everyone in the bookstore knew about the girl who had sold he lab book back without her text book. LOL
Later that night, I made tin foil dinners and we went up into Kelly Canyon with our friends Scott and Cristine Garrison. We got wood chopped down and I started the fire. There were a lot of cows in our area that evening and they were very loud the whole night! It was quit hilarious. We also shoot Blake's 22 pistol and rifle. Scott and Cristine are good shots! We had an awesome time! Ya for school being done!
I look pretty goofy in this picture...enjoy!
