It should feel like Spring somewhere…

It’s been a while, and I figured it should start feeling like spring somewhere, so I will start with my nails. I am no longer counting on Mother Nature to make it happen. But hints of spring have been around, despite the frigid temperatures and snow covered streets. For one, our days are getting longer! Yay for more sunshine (when we have them!). Day light savings is approaching this weekend, so the days will be even longer!! My apartment has been awkwardly placed, overlooking court yard surrounded by other buildings, and I am on the 2nd floor. All winter, I practically had no sunlight in my room, but slowly and surely, the sun rays are peeking in when I leave the blinds open. It makes me happy. And the dreaded U of C winter quarter is coming to an end in a couple of weeks 🙂 It’s been the most challenging quarter so far; I hope spring quarter has better weather (and therefore, pleasant attitudes of people) in store.

On a Throwback Thursday note, it was exactly at this time (down to the hour) that I received my graduate school acceptance. And here I am, slaving away under the books. But it’s exactly what I would have wanted a year ago, so it is kind of exciting to see things have progressed since then. Chicago has treated me well 🙂

I apologize for the hiatus; the Broncos have lost miserably since the last nail design post -my nails have suffered a bit -I have taken a short India trip – my cousin has gotten married (!!) – amongst other awesome things that has happened in February. For now, I am happy to March into spring! (ALL the pun intended!)
