The last couple of weeks have been glorious. I finished my two classes I had been working on and then gave myself a few weeks to catch up on my stack of books from the library. Best. Idea. Ever. I ended up reading 14 books in January, which is an excellent number.
Today I ordered my next class. Yikes. School is expensive. I figure it will take at least a week for my materials to all arrive, so this week I still have time to knock a few books out of my to-be-read pile. I'm trying so hard to read Pride and Prejudice which I have been meaning to read for about 5 years... but I'm struggling with it. Each time I've sat down to read it I've ended up asleep, which is so not what I want to happen! I want to read it and I want to love it, it's just a little more difficult than I thought.
I also had lunch with my friends, went to the zoo, got together with a friend who should hopefully be having a baby in the next few days, watched The Help, got caught up on this season of The Biggest Loser, and watched a few episodes of some other tv shows. Oh, and I danced my little heart out--I love Just Dance 3!
And for the record, in my attempt to read the whole Standard Works this year, I am a few days ahead of schedule. I just finished up Numbers today and am moving on to Deuteronomy.

You are so fresh!
You are such an amazing reader! I just know you're going to love Pride and Prejudice once you get into it. You know how great it is from the movies, and the book is even better. Good luck!
(P.S. Yes, school is very expensive. You're fortunate to have BYU tuition rates. I've just finished paying off my exorbitantly high UW student loans this past summer. I graduated in 2002...).
Good Girl! I love your goal to read the entire Standard Works!
