Less than 2 weeks to go

I have less than 2 weeks until graduation and I can't seem to find the motivation to study. All I have left is: 4 tests and 6 discussion posts. But it is SO hard to study when it is warm and sunny outside. Yesterday Spencer and I took the dogs for a nice long walk, worked in the yard, looked at new cars (but didn't buy one) and then went to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory (delicious!) with Tyler and Lindsay. Then today Spencer made me breakfast (wheat pancakes, an egg and an apple!), then we spent a few hours at the dog park with Eric (Presley and Butch loved the dog park), then had a nice evening at home and I made a spinach and rice casserole for dinner. My goal was to study for my psych test today...didn't really happen. I only read over 3 of 7 powerpoint slides. I did somehow find the motivation to write my first discussion post! Only 5 more to go!
 Here is a picture of Presley and I at the dog park.
I can't believe that I am graduating next Thursday, I have worked so hard for this and it is actually happening! I'm excited for a few graduation get-togethers that I'm going to as well, the first one is with my fellow students at Liberty Park. It's going to be a pot luck, it will be nice to be able to hang out with school friends and not be worried about homework and upcoming assignments. Next is dinner with my family after my graduation ceremony, we're going go to Squatters in SLC. My third celebration is a Fiesta/Graduation Party that I am having at my house for my close friends and family. I'm pretty excited for this one. I bought decorations and am looking forward to decorating the house and making quesadillas, cheese dip, nachos dulce and margaritas!
