And he shall be my Squishy!

Finally folks, the day has come. I got so bored on Monday that I decided I needed a friend. So, of course, where can you find the best friends ever? That's right, the pet store. I got an adorable, chubby buddy - a dwarf hamster - and I named him Squishy. I have had the name picked out for months, and now the name has an actual hamster. Woo. He is the friendliest hamster ever. He shall be my companion through the lonely days of living at home during law school.
Anyway, as I said before, I have been very bored. I tried to stay busy for awhile, and I did. I was able to do little things here and there for people to keep myself active. Now, however, those little things have pretty much ended, and here I sit, staring at the wall all day. Not to mention the weather has been really weird and horrible. If it was in the 80s and sunny, I would have no problem relaxing by the pool with a book. But it's in the 70s and hazy, which makes it weird to swim. At least the grandparents have the hot tub working now. That's a huge plus. Otherwise, I've been reading a lot. It's a good thing, but I am still dragging.
The one good thing coming soon is my little road trip. I'll be visiting Dayton, Chicago, Milwaukee and Cleveland...all in one exciting week. I am very anxious to get out of my lovely home for a week. It will be highly necessary. I just can't believe it's already going to be July. As much as summer is dragging, summer never seems to slow down too much.
I have been looking at my law school schedule and reading about all the organizations and opportunities, and I am getting ridiculously excited to begin. I am so ready for a challenge, and I am so ready to be thrown into something completely new. I can't wait to see if I can work hard and end up in the top spots in my class. I want to succeed really badly. We shall see though. I just know that by the time law school comes along, I will be more than ready to work hard.
Let's see what else is exciting...I am going to Myrtle Beach in August. I am really looking forward to that for sure. I've never been to Myrtle Beach, but I hear it's quite the good time. My cousin announced that she's pregnant last night at a little family party. It's exciting. There hasn't been a baby in our family for 8 years. And, it will be the first great-grandchild. It is pretty exciting. And our family was in need of some good news.
Well, I suppose that's all for now. I would try to write more, but honestly, there's not much left to write. Oh, this boring life of an unemployed bum.
