BEING A PREP FOR A WEEK: 4/17/16 -- 4/23/16

Can you believe that April is almost over?  Time really flies when you're having fun (or when you're extremely busy).

Thankfully, I had a light school load this week due to no school on Friday and a "free" day on Tuesday because of ACT testing.  I cannot stop gazing outside constantly;  the weather has been absolutely sublime, an ideal demonstration of springtime.  From what I've read and seen, the conditions have been equally favorable in other parts of the world--I hope your corner of the Earth is being blessed with wonderful sunshine!

Now, on to some of my favorite links from the past week:
An article that explains why more people should major in history (a worthwhile read, even if you're majoring in a completely different field)
A delightful list of words that should be used more often in everyday settings...
Searching for home design inspiration?  Look no further than the charming pastel blues and whites of this Oklahoma house.
Someone made a musical about one of my favorite historical figures--of course, I watched every single minute of it (even though it was being sung in German)!
In case you missed it, my calligraphy tips for beginners

In the spirit of the wonderful weather and Earth Day, I'd like to end by saying, "The Earth has music for those who listen."

How was your week?

Love,
Tori
