Moving Day!!
So, I have decided to switch apartments; I am moving downstairs to my sister's apartment. I am always there anyways...This will just make things easier. So, because of the move I don't know if I will be able to put up a larger post. Plus I have midterms next week and need to study this weekend...Add extra homework and projects on top of that and you will get a pretty clear picture of where I will be this weekend. Hope everyone else has fun this weekend!!

The Longest Week!
This week has dragged by for me! I have had so much to do that it feels like the weekend will never get here. Besides that, today just isn't the best day. I have an 8am class everyday and this morning it was extra difficult for me to get up, so I was exhausted all day. I have a project due on Friday in that same 8am class. So far it seems as though I have done most of the work for it, the girl wants to meet today a 6:30pm...But I'm like, I have already finished most of the project and I need a school break tonight. I just want her to give me whatever research she has and I will put it into the presentation. Whatever...
On top of that, I took a major exam today. I have been stressing about this exam because it has a lot of information and it weighs heavily on my grade. Plus, I was looking at the average score and so far the average score is a 58%...Yes, that's right...An F is the average score! I have been studying like crazy all week...Not knowing for sure what will be on the test. I mean, yes that is a really low average...But not everyone has taken it yet (it closes tomorrow night, then I will know for sure). I have so much to do before tomorrow that I really don't have any more time to study for it. So I decided to take it today after one of my classes. I am so mad! I got an 89.6%! You want to know what could have made it an A? The last question we are shown a painting and asked to identify it. Spelling counts. The painting was "Embarkation for Cythera," I put "Embarkation of Cythera." One word wrong and I get a B instead of an A. Granted I did get a few other questions wrong...But that is one of the only ones that I knew the answer for. I just didn't know the middle as well I thought!
Enough about the test...It just makes me angry! I still have a lot of homework. I have another presentation next week in another one of my classes. Plus, the everyday homework stuff. Yesterday night was the start of my school's spirit week. The launched it with a bunch of events and a fantastic fireworks show! It was so cool! It makes me miss living next to Knott's, where there were fireworks all the time!
In other news, my old roommate had her baby last week, or so. It was a boy and was her second child. Congratulations to her! Another one of my roommates went to Disneyland on a three day pass this week with her husband for a family reunion. Must be rough, miss school and leave Rexburg to go to Disneyland. I can't wait until this semester is over! No more school! I guess that's it for mow. Take care everyone!

Blah!
I'm tired, I'm sick, and I don't feel like posting. I hope this week goes by quickly. On another note, I order some stuff online almost two weeks ago and it still has not come...I am starting to get worried...I hope it gets here this week! That's about all my news for now. I have a paper due this week and a bunch of school stuff to get done...Other than that, not much to tell. Have a good week everyone!
