The Day We Died and Went to Heaven . . . and then some

Hello! 

We* finally did it!!!!!

We went to Pioneer Book!!!


Just look at those books! Aren't they beautiful!


If you're feeling a bit healthy and wealthy, you could buy this first edition copy of one of the greatest books ever written! 


I sufficed myself with these two gems: Draw to Learn Français! and Small is Still Beautiful: Economics as if Families Mattered. 


Books. Mmmm!

*We = Allison Barrett and me


Alli Barrett: A stellar individual.

stel·lar - ˈstelər
informal: exceptionally good; outstanding.
synonyms: marvelous, outstanding, superb, first-rate, out of this world, heavenly, dazzling

I have two more things to talk about.

1. So, I took this Buzzfeed which-Hogwarts-house-are-you-in quiz, and I got Hufflepuff.
I had a really hard time with this at first, but I learned to embrace it :).


But then, I took another quiz, and look what I got.


89% Gryffindor/89% Hufflepuff?

 What? 

I feel like Marty on Madagascar. "Alex, I don't know if I'm a black zebra with white stripes, or a white zebra with black stripes!"

I think I'll just take the best of both houses. It's like ice cream. I'll have a little bit of both :). #norealsortinghatprobs

2. Number two has two parts: 
(a) Graduating from college is hard. Period. 
(b) Jonathan (more affectionately known as Bumb) is the best.

We recently had a conversation that went something like this: 

Anna: Jonathan, can we just have an intellectually stimulating conversation!? I haven't had one for so long!
Jonathan: Sure Anna. Go get [insert C.S. Lewis book here], read it, and we'll discuss it.

Being born into a family of geniuses is the best. You get built in professors :). I'm glad I got to tag onto the back. #youngestchildperks
  
Well, I think that's all! Happy Friday tomorrow!
