Sunday Funday: Week in Review [14]

Sunday Funday is a weekly(ish) post I’ve started to recap the bookish (and sometimes not-so-bookish) happenings in my life the past week! Feel free to participate, just link back! September 15-21, 2014 This week has been a rather enjoyable one! Fall weather has decided to descend (at least for now) and the cloudy and cooler weather has made for lovely and cozy reading conditions. It also means that I have thrown myself into full Halloween season mode, finding a costume, starting to plan baking projects, and purchasing my old childhood favorite, Halloweentown, on DVD. My kitten Rocco has, by contrast, […]

Sunday Funday is a weekly(ish) post I’ve started to recap the bookish (and sometimes not-so-bookish) happenings in my life the past week! Feel free to participate, just link back! September 8- September 14, 2014 This week was a stressful one for me as I was a bit under the weather and was preparing for my boyfriend to visit in honor of our annual anniversary (it’s been a few years!) We ended up spending most of the weekend hanging out at home watching Kitchen Nightmares and movies on Netflix, but I’ve found that those moments are often the best, when your […]

Sunday Funday is a weekly(ish) post I’ve started to recap the bookish (and sometimes not-so-bookish) happenings in my life the past week! Feel free to participate, just link back! September 1- September 7, 2014 This week I did a lot of studying for the first in a series of entrance exams to apply for grad schools. I feel good about it, although I’m not quite sure why standardized testing always has to be so early in the morning. So this section is a bit brief this week as I spent most of it wearing down my #2 pencils in preparation! […]

Sunday Funday is a weekly(ish) post I’ve started to recap the bookish (and sometimes not-so-bookish) happenings in my life the past week! Feel free to participate, just link back! August 18 -August 24, 2014 This week I was mainly focused on participating in the Bout of Books read-a-thon, so most of my time was split between the library and home. Saturday I did take a break from reading and had a really great day with my Dad, as we took a day trip to visit my little brother at college and see his brand new dorm (which is actually a […]

Sunday Funday is a weekly(ish) post I’ve started to recap the bookish (and sometimes not-so-bookish) happenings in my life the past week! Feel free to participate, just link back! August 11 -August 17, 2014 So I mentioned last week that I was going on an end of the summer vacation this week, which is why things were pretty quiet around here earlier this week. I’m back from a really fun trip to Disneyland with my boyfriend! We’re both huge Disney fans so whenever we can venture to a Disney location we do! (Fun Fact: Splash Mountain is my favorite ride).

This week is my last week at my summer job, which has kept me plenty busy the past two months. While I loved getting out of the house and having something to do, I’m excited to have some down time to focus on reading and blogging more, as well as starting the graduate school application program (and studying for the GRE…ahhh!) To celebrate the end of summer, I’m taking a mini-vacation […]

Sunday Funday: Week in Review [8]

Posted July 20, 2014 in Sunday Funday, Weekly Features/Memes / 10 Comments

Sunday Funday is a weekly(ish) post I’ve started to recap the bookish (and sometimes not-so-bookish) happenings in my life the past week! Feel free to participate, just link back! This week has been more of a productive one and less of a fun one. I’ve been busy with work (although I got an extra day off this weekend, so that was nice!), had to take my car in for some repairs, grocery shop, helped finalize plans for a mini family reunion in two weeks, and catch up on posting some reviews. Currently Reading: So far this is pretty good, although […]
