So, Friday August 26 2011 was another early morning for Morgan and Me. The good news about this though was that we only had one class which was only an hour and twenty minutes. We got to the school like thirty minutes early (better than late), and sat in the classroom until class began. All we did was take notes over the slide show about safety and stuff. That was easy peasy lemon squeasy. We had the rest of the day ahead of us. We got back to the apartment and ate some lunch, then sat down for some study time because we were determined to get homework finished this day so we could have the whole weekend for adventures. Immediately a problem became evident. Number One apartment guy was being a nuisance AGAIN. Like almost everyday, he had his rap music blasting through our floor. It wasn't loud enough for us to hear the lyrics, just the pounding bass. This drove me insane. The music didn't stop for like two hours, and by then i had enough. I had to leave the apartment. Morgan and I packed up our backpacks and headed to Sawyer Point to get our homework done. Since it was a beautiful day with amazing temperature we both agreed this would be a perfect idea, since we usually don't get out of the apartment much.
It probably took us an hour to get there. The GPS did not show us a way to get there using the interstate. That was frustrating. Later we soon found out why. Morgan forgot to put back in the GPS that it was okay to find an interstate route. But the park was a wonderful idea. We walked until we found some tables right by the tennis courts. We tried to read all the way through the chapter, but it was so long that we couldn't do it all. We did get a little distracted with taking pictures =)
This is a panoramic view of the area we were sitting at. The park is located right next to the Newport river (i believe it is). It was so BEAUTIFUL!
This is the bridge connecting Ohio to Kentucky.
See, we really were studying. I promise you that!
Here are the tennis courts that were right beside the table we were studying at! There are so many of them and are in such good condition! I am so excited for when my foot is better so Morgan and I can play before the winter comes!!
It was my turn to read! As you can see, we were making learning FUN! It actually was a pretty boring chapter to read though. It was about hygein and how to give baths to patients and stuff....
At this point we were ready to take a break from reading and go attempt tennis (that didnt work out too well though).
Our Beautiful Water Bottles =) oh boy i sure drink so much water now that i got that amazing water bottle!!
Were so beautiful...I already know =) haha
Morgan really wanted to stand in the stadium down there with her arms raised. So of course i was willing to take a picture of her. And at this point in time, you can probably assume we were done studying!
So when we were not reading anymore, we attempted to play tennis, but my foot was not up to it. Maybe if i was wearing sneakers, it would have been easier, but flip flops were not so good to be wearing. After that we walked back to the car and drove home. When we got back, we read some more of the book but still didnt get finished before Morgan's mom and sister arrived. And what a surprise they brought with them!
The sweetest, most playful, softest kitten in the whole world!! SIMON!! ( this is the kitten sam is in love with) He is so playful and energetic, and he is just so fun to play with. (side note -- this morning he knocked over my table fan beacuse he didnt like the air blowing on him =P)
After the excitment of seeing simon, the four of us headed out to drive around and see more of our neighborhood. We even found a park two minutes away, payless shoe store, and Dots! That was fun. We also went to TJ Max and the three of us tried on these rediculous hats that i dont know why anyone would want to buy!!
So, after that we were starving and decided we wanted to try Noodles&co. It was so good! we all got something different. We went to Greaters and got some ice cream after that, and then we drove around some more. Finally we headed back to the apartment. It had been a long day and i was tired.
Thats All (for now) Folks!!
=)
This is me with my tennis racket and my pepper spray!! I was prepared!











What a cute kitty! I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO jealous!
