Lately I've been...
Lately I've been...
Lately I've been...
This week has been a special week for me. I broke 4,000 followers on my blog. Crazy! I remember when I had 100 and thought triple digits was so cool. So thank you THANK YOU for your continued support in keeping this blog alive! :D As a side note, I just realized that this is also my 1,000 post. I can't imagine I'd ever have 1,000 things to write about. Pretty neat, huh?

Lately I've been...
... trying to decipher Le Petit Prince for French class
... thinking of pumpkin recipes to try (we just got some pumpkins earlier this week; suggestions?)
... waiting for my camera to be fixed; he's in the camera hospital right now :(
... enjoying the last bit of summer weather (i can finally wear my new bloomers!)
... planning for my trip to LA later this month

I hope you have a great weekend! I think this is the warm weather's last hurrah until sweater weather sets in for good here in the bay area, so I'm going to soak it in as much as possible. What have you been doing lately?

(Lately I've been... is a new Friday column. Feel free to join in!)

Many congratulations to you!!!
I hope you continue to grow exponentially :)

...AND that your camera is fixed soon (that can always be a little stressing)

For me it is a great day, too since I wrote my last exam today (until early november at least) and now have three weeks of total relaxation ahead of me. Oh and I have already read the little prince,but reading it in french might be fun, is it very hard?

I've just finished reading Le Petit Prince for French as well! Must admit, I found it really boring. Or maybe it was just boring reading it in French 'cause I couldn't understand a word of it haha :P
