Blah Blah Blah School

I figure it's time for an update... for whomever reads this thing anyway!

I've been kinda bummed about my too-busy-schedule lately and how it's interfered with my blogging (sad... I know.) but I think it's for a strange reason. As far as I know, nobody reads this. And I'm fine with that. I think, what it is that has finally lured me in about blogging, is that I find it very... therapeutic... to just type. I tend to type like I speak... so it's like that best friend who will just listen and listen and listen and never complain. The best friend that you abuse with minor life-victories and unnecessary drama... and they are happy to hear it all. I think that's why I've been irritated about my schedule not allowing me to blog... Like my blog subtitle says, "I have a lot of nonsense on my mind and this is how I choose to get rid of it." It just feels better to vent... to have everything out there *sigh of contentment*

That being said, tonight was my honors presentation. These things are pretty laid back and consisting of x-number of students that deliver 15-25 minute presentations of the category Explore and Enrich... which is a pretty loose category. Tonight we had someone who has been taking belly dancing lessons, two girls that traveled to Utah and worked for animal sanctuary, a girl talking about teaching inner city 8th graders the importance of ecological systems, a young fella that writes music, another that earned his SCUBA diving certification, a fellow-foodie of mine that taught us self-defense amongst other things. All-in-all the presentation took about 4 hours to get through (I know...) but everyone has something semi-interesting to say. Wes and I's beer was highly accepted and received rave reviews.

Tomorrow morning is stupid Physics... then Thursday is Micro, Calc II, and Philosophy... I figured I can get an 80 on Micro and still get an A... unfortunately Physics, Calc, and Phil are not similar. I'm pretty much on the verge of A-B for all of them... I hate being at that point going in to finals. Sucks dick.

On a semi-good note, I took my speech book (never used), my micro book (never used), and one of my two calculus books (because I'm an idiot and bought two) back to the book store for book-buyback. $195. Not too shabby (until you consider the fact that I spent over $600 on them). Well, no... not technically. I still haven't returned my physics book (DID use) and my philosophy book (never used) and my other calculus book... I'll do that Thursday after finals (and before the Porter House... hehehehehehehe).

I'm just excited to be done-ish... and am really bummed about the next 4 finals... Hey! At least next semester won't be this bad :/

OH! And I think Wesley is getting me an iPod touch for Christmas. That is something to look forward to (since I've been music-less while on-the-go since I lost my last iPod :(... )
