You know that feeling when it's spring break and the East Coast decides to revert back to the dead of winter and produce the biggest blizzard and freezing temperatures of the whole season? Yea, exactly. Okay, well it's not ALL bad. There was some fun cookies, baking, painting, literally "do-nothing" days. That's what spring break in college is for, right? (Well, for the "responsible" kids, if you get my drift). Really though, no complaints here, we're in the home stretch of the spring semester now...I can taste summer (even if I really can't see it!)
What I can see is a huge round-up on the Friday Finisher this week! Tons of great content to dive into this weekend for your reading and viewing pleasure! Cheers to a "not so spring" weekend! (O...Happy St. Patrick's Day!)
