One Day...ish

Study study study today (comp apps and calc and psych) and pack up the car today. Then its test-time after work tomorrow (2 tests - comp apps and calc), then driving home for Betsey's Christmas concert. Then I drive back from the concert that night, get some sleep (minimal, but enough to function) and take a psych exam. Then it's back home I go! Yeah, I know, coming back for a psych exam is stupid, but my prof is like that. Great guy.

So my next three days are going to be killers...but Thursday evening is going to make it all worthwhile. Betsey is going to rock her solo, I'm going to be kicking it in a new outfit ;) and I am going to hear the PCS choir knock our socks off (I've never listened to them, I just sang with them). Plus I get to see all my old high school buddies. It's gonna be grand!! If you're reading this and you live within a ten-mile radius of PCS, a PCS student, or the location of the Christmas concert, COME SEE IT!!! It is free and SO worth your time!!

I love Christmas. On Saturday we are going tree shopping!! And regular shopping (probably Lighthouse Place). I'm psyched. I LOVE the smell of pine needles. You get one sniff of it and you swell with happiness...it's the joy of the season. Get out there and make the most of it! Visit with your family (the time you have with them is so short), go sledding with friends, throw a snowball, catch a snowflake, drink some cider, play some tackle football, LIVE IT UP!! You won't regret it, and it will get you through the next semester/quarter just with those memories.

I'm out like a fat kid in dodgeball.

stick a fork in me...

Well folks, I just completed the worst academic day yet at Rose. This makes the third day I haven't gotten comp apps hmwrk done...although the other days I actually turned in something. Then I went on to fill my lunch hour madly trying to finish a calc assignment, only to find out that it was not due until the next day. Then I traversed on to fail (or nearly fail) a physics final because I spent all the time I could have been studying for it on comp apps and calc. So after that (and my psychology class) I finished a physics lab, ate dinner, played and lost a bball game, then decided to have some ME time.

No, that's not mechanical engineering time, that's quality, do-nothing-but-what-i-want-to-do-because-i-have-a-car-temporarily time. It rocked. I am in such a good mood now...yay!! I finished buying a Christmas gift for my roomie and spent some time at Starbucks with me, my laptop, and a peppermint mocha grande. Most enjoyable, however, was singing at the top of my lungs in the car, blasting my country tunes. Oh yeah! I didn't even cry once. That was a shocker in and of itself. It was just a good time.

Now I am back at Rose and I must go to bed because tomorrow is just as if not more busy as today was, and it starts super early as I get help on my comp apps. Wish me luck (I have 3 more tests this week)! Hopefully I can get everything done by Thursday and work moved up as well so I don't have to come back to Rose on Friday. We shall see. Good night everyone! Signing off.

bored...yawn

Well, I am at work not working. I do have calculus I could do, but it's not really required and I am stuck on it, so here I am doing not a thing.

I am SO excited about tonight. It is SWE weekend, so there are a ton of girls coming to visit and lots of freshmen are hosting them. But six of those SWE girls are vball recruits as well. Katie and I are hosting Jackie...she is one of Katie's best friends from high school! So I have already met her and Katie knows her really well. It is going to be so much fun! We get to show her around, do some fun things with her, and all that good stuff.

It is free small coffee day at Starbucks!! Everyone go, you will finally get atonement for paying ridiculous prices every other day for their coffee. Yay! It is only between 6-8 PM and it is only for small coffees...but it is FREE. Go for it.

14 days...exactly two weeks until I am home for Betsey's Christmas concert. Then it is only another day until I am home for Christmas break! Woohoo! I need to go Christmas shopping (not that it will be much, I am only a poor college kid). Well, I had better get a little more calculus done before class tomorrow. Bye, all.
