Update during finals

I'm pretty sure that finals week is driving students to go mad. Fortunately, I moved to the other side of the room before the insanity hit. I took over Kara's side since she's gone off and become married and what not. I've added more pictures and the bulletin boards are busier now, but you get the idea.

This is what I mean about insanity:

Whitney's friend Heath showed up one night with a gift bag full of goodies. He even got me a puppy calendar! Oh, I love puppies (remember now I will have my own golden one day? Still intact).One very dangerous gift was the sparkling white grape juice. We'd be really loopy drunks. Example A:

And of course students have time to eat and prepare meals, right? Whitney attempted to boil chicken and ended up setting it on fire. No big deal. She tried it anyway:


I guess it didn't turn out very good. We tried jell-o after that. Much easier, and no worries about flames.

I don't know if you can see it very well, but there was a point at the beginning of November where a few of us measured ourselves. I was SO sure I wasn't the shortest in the apartment. Then Kara had to go and stretch JUST enough so I was 1/2 centimeters shorter.


Since I had to say "see you later" to Casey earlier in the day, I was a bit drained and decided to nap it off. 2 hour nap later and I had a bit of energy. Example A:

So, as far as the actual finals go, I have the privledge to take 3 more: Capstone (easy, online), Lights and Sounds (easy, in class), and Pakistan (hard, in class). I am so glad I can avoid those dreaded testing center lines. I do have to run 1.5 miles for a grade too...

Happier note, I was surfing the beloved internet today and came across a crafts blog. Little did I know, I have developed an interest in this. Shocking, I know. My question now is this: Can a college student be crafty? I don't have cute kids to clothe, or a house to decorate. Maybe I'll surprise myself and try it over break. Keep checking back... I've got to get over my heart ache somehow. - sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same -
