Midterms, etc.

This week I am rather busy with midterms and I cannot wait for this week to be done! I want to do well in my classes so I have been studying for real. I studied history of psychology for 2 hours today. Then I watched MOST of The Swan Princess... be jealous! :) But that boy called me near the end so I talked to him before he went to midnight sports.

I have a speech to give on Thursday, but if I do not finish writing my outline I'm sure I can convince my teacher to let me go next week... he is pretty flexible and understands students sometimes get a LOT on their plates. I need to do really well on 2 of my exams this week. Especially anthropology because we have a midterm and a final that is all the stuff we learn in the semester, plus a couple projects... not very many graded things in that class at all! :-O

I had an interview today for a position in Residents Life (RA/APA).. I am hoping for a RA job, but I would be fine with any kind of "for sure" job going into next semester. We won't find out if we have a job or not until after spring break. I lost my belt for my coat between my interview and getting back to my dorm room.

I'm pretty excited about spring break though... Yes, I'm going back to Wisconsin, but I do miss a few people... so it's okay. And my dog might have babies while I'm home! Coming home the 12th late at night and getting back to Gunnison mid-day on the 21st. haha :D

Over summer my goal is to get my drivers' license and a reliable enough vehicle so I can drive myself to/from school. Yes it's a long drive, especially alone, but being able to leave for winter/summer break on my own terms is kind of worth it.. instead of relying on others. Plus I could probably do the trip in less than breaking it up in 2 days if I'm motivated. After CO, until IL the speed limit is like 70-75 so if it's like early morning when I'm driving through there it won't be bad, traffic-wise... ya know? I haven't thought hard about this, but I HAVE put some thought into it...

Well, I really do need to head to bed because I have an exam in the morning I need to be well rested for. I hope my posts can be more positive from now on, but you know... everyone just has those "down" days... :-/
