With almost only 2 weeks of school left, my two major seminars for the term is done and leaves me with more time to focus on the final project. After the stressful few weeks of cramming and getting both of those seminars done (was almost working at both of them at the same time), it was a real treat to get away from things. Spending the weekend at Harrison Springs and shopping at States for the weekend that just passed was awesome. Didn't do much, but just chilling and giving my brains a nice mental break was delightful.
Harrison Springs@Friday night & Saturday Afternoon
Mom randomly proposed going to Harrison springs a week earlier, and so we were there for one night on Friday after all my seminars were done with. Our "Kids night out package" included pizza dinner, breakie, one free movie and free use to the pools for a pretty decent price. The package came with a room with two doubles, which was kinda tight for kids and parents to slip in together, but just for one night, and as a sorta family bonding movie pizza thing it was all good. (the pizza crust was as hard as thick cookies tho, was really a jaw work out and everyone gave up on eating the crust after one slice)
Our stay at Harrison springs was mostly just...swimming around in the spring pools haha. Well, yah, that's the main purpose people go there, but it would've been nice to have some time sketching the place or to take a walk around the small town to explore...but ah well, that can always be done on future visits with friends :)
I hated the dead cold whenever I left the pools but the hot waters were pure love ♥. The scenery around the hotel was beautiful and the breeze beside the sea was refreshing.
Shopping in States@Sunday
Wasn't a major shopping session, did more eating than buying lol
(We had McD's that morning too B) )
However I did manage to get a cute TH sweater that matches my grey TH bag I bought on boxing day and a new pair of daily boots, since my old leather ones were getting quite worn out.

| Also this sweater reminds me of John's jumper ♥ (from BBC Sherlock) |
The dark blue and white stripes are so cute and the cotton yarn is so comfortable ♥♥♥ The yarn is more loosely knitted tho, so it's more breathable~And as a plus, it has little white navy buttons on the top of the sweater kekeke (I swear I didn't buy this sweater just for the buttons :D)

| Buttons alike~the white navy buttons and two other similar styles of buttons from my collection (spare buttons that came with new clothes or old buttons that came off old clothes) |
Sweaters and interesting buttons are so much love ♥
