Long week, Short Post

Amanda

Finals are coming up really soon and there are so many deadlines it's nuts. I had a really long week this week. I went to all my normal classes this week but I had an added stress. I performed a solo last night at school in Knuth. The accompaniment was really weird but I pulled of a pretty good performance. I had my piano teacher accompany me and she was awesome.

After last night's program was over, I had a lot of my peers come up to me and compliment me. I guess it made me feel like I actually belonged there and that I'm not fooling myself. Anyway, I guess I just feel a little bit validated.

I don't have any pictures this time but I'll try and post again this coming week. By the way, I have another blog. If you ever get bored and want to see if I've posted there, here it is:

Fun stuff after a rough week

Daja

Why school was so awful last week:
Last week was definitely one of the craziest weeks this semester. Usually it's a tough week when I have 2 science midterms (or exams, whatever you want to call it) in consecutive days. Last week, however, not only did I have an anatomy exam Thursday and O-chem exam Friday, I had my 10-15 pg paper due Tuesday. And did I mention I haven't written an English paper since last year? Yea. Awful. Actually, I think things turned out better than I anticipated. Not great, but not tragic either. Well, maybe I shouldn't say anything because I haven't gotten anything back yet, but uhh... I'll update on that later.

ANYWAY, enough about school because that's over and done with! Just one more set of exams in a couple weeks and then FINALS! So after all that, I was ready to jump into a new episode of LOST and relax my mind when I found out.. there hasn't been a new episode of LOST since I last watched it online 2 weeks ago. WHAT..! So to indulge in LOST without actually watching it, televisionwithoutpity is the way to go. Yes Amanda, you should check it out. The snarkiness on the LOST episode recaps almost matches up with yours ;) I love.

And some funny links to check out when you are bored, curious, or just simply in the mood to procrastinate: What Asian People Like vs. What White People Like . Some of the stuff on there are either pretty interesting or just hilarious hahah.

Tell me what you think of those sites :D Or tell of some interesting sites you guys visit so I can turn to them when I need a study break.

And in response to the previous post - we should most definitely go (even though it would've been even cooler to see you 2 set up a booth yourselves :P but I know, I know). Especially since it seems I won't be leaving the country after all, so I will be PRETTY free this summer with not much to do... hm. Any ideas for me guys?
