congratulations to me!

i had my last final exam yesterday! 
even better: my professor returned our research papers to us and I got an A. and i don't think i did too bad on the exam, either. horray! i officially have two more semesters of school. unless i decide a masters degree is in the cards...lets just focus on these two semesters. i'm too excited about having over an entire MONTH off school.
today, i'm going to celebrate with lots of Hulu, the gym (finally i have time for that!) and some light christmas shopping. then i have to go to work, what a drag. 
fortunately, i've been balancing my two jobs alright. i'm very happy to have school out of the equation. the past few weeks have been the busiest! i'd literally rather not have a job than money. i need to see my spouse more than two nights a week, even if that means reading a book together instead of going out, and eating top ramen! 
 we had our annual christmas party with lindsay and wes! unfortunately, i didn't get any other pictures. jon grilled us steaks and asparagus, wes made potatoes and gravy, and i heated up some corn and made dessert. (...) we made ornaments with sand from our beach and a picture from lindsay's birthday party! i'm hoping the picture will flatten up a little bit, but i'm actually not mad about how it looks. then we went on a walk and watched "it's a wonderful life". we haven't finished it yet, but the first hour made me realize that it is the funniest! movie! ever! i'm sure the ending is great too. 
 after my final yesterday, i headed straight to the temple to witness a beautiful sealing between two beautiful peeps! i'm pretty ashamed i didn't get a picture of the happy couple, but i got this one of the temple. we spent the day hanging out with jeff and kayleene and the rest of kenny's family. it was really fun!
 lucky they got married yesterday instead of today because its been raining for like 16 hours straight. san diego doesn't do well in the rain. every time it rains, its like the whole city has never seen it before. i can never understand why. the whole city floods. isn't that weird? it happens every time it rains, why haven't they figured something out?
you'd think my raspberry bushes would like it...its hard to tell though when they're hugging the ground like this.
