A wonderful #romantsy from #smartypants books! I adored Shane and Gabriel‘s relationship. They had to work for their happy ending and it was wonderful to read! 💕💕💕

Update: I haven't posted much at all this summer - it's been busy and tough at the same time. And my reading went over a cliff as well. But I miss you. And am thinking about you all. And I hope you are filled with joy. Hopefully posting again soon, and often. All my love! (Pictured here-my journal, notebooks, and stickers, all for my first semester of grad school.)

MrBook Glad to see you post again, my friend! 😊👍🏻 7y

mjdowens Love that anatomy & physiology. Would take it again just for the joy of it❤️ 7y

Skeebies05 I have never take a chem class in my life. I got through HS and College without having to take it. It was for the best- for my mind and gpa. I'm in awe of people who can make sense of it all!! 7y

Shvonne I failed high school chemistry. I couldn't get the hang of it. 7y

KathyWheeler That most difficult course I ever took in college was organic chemistry; I loved it. My undergrad degree is in chemistry and English. (edited) 7y

JoeStalksBeck @KathyWheeler omg OChem is the devil! You think it will be easy , no math . But those damn mechanisms! Forward and backward! Hell no! Lol! 7y

KathyWheeler @JoeStalksBeck I know! I thought it wouldn't be so hard because of the lack of math but no! The only thing that saved me was we got separate grades for class and lab that were then added together-- I was extremely good in the lab. Without that lab grade, I would have been toast. (edited) 7y

JoeStalksBeck @KathyWheeler our grades were separated. I loved the lab but the class was extremely difficult! The chair confirmation scarred me lol ! 7y
