Magnetic Appeal

I really want these (Cats! Spanish! Greek! I collect fridge magnets! SO appropriate!) but I can't justify spending $10.99 + shipping on two little magnets from Mod Cloth...sad.

Lately

I've been mad busy with my thesis... And my first conference, one of my best friends being in town, a trip to Central America, work, and Easter (Orthodox Easter is this coming weekend). Until graduation and my parents' visit in May, things are only going to get busier! Thesis defense, concert with bestie C. Lu, job applications. Whew. I can't even keep up with me lately.

B in B-oston!

First conference!
