Watch your back today! It's Friday the 13th! Those always creep up on the calendar when you least expect, eh? At least it's Friday and there's the "luck of the weekend" on our side! I have like 2-3 weeks of the semester left and I am SO ready for Summer (is it even Spring yet?) This year actually did go by rather quick, but then I think back to the Fall semester and I feel like that was years ago. Tunnel vision on the end goal is the way to hustle through college the quickest way possible!
I have papers to finish up and projects to polish, but I can't wait to dive deep into Strength and Sunshine content come May! Until then, without fail, your weekly reading with the Friday Finisher has arrived!

Oh my goodness, I cannot wait to dive into these posts! They all sound so great. I have a lot of contract law to read this weekend (ew), but I'm planning on getting stuck into some blog stuff at night. It's all about balance, right?
I have my fingers crossed for you and your possible internship. That is so exciting! I'm not superstitious about Friday 13th, but I am about a tonne of other things! Like, breaking mirrors, for example.

Blog work always finds a way to sneak in every moment it can 😉

Thanks for sharing. Friday 13th is almost over here in S.Africa and guess what? I only realised when I read your post what the date was! So I guess you could say no, I'm not superstitious!
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine
I know, right? You only remember when someone reminds you!
