wow...
For three nights in a row, I've actually felt like the girls of Unit 109 have a life. It's amazing. But it's ending...ummm...now. At least for a few weeks. There are six weeks of school left. Four weeks of class. Two weeks of exams. It's a dizzying thought. There is so much to learn, relearn, do, think, prepare for...and I always have this sinking suspicion that I won't learn, relearn, do think, prepare for...but in reality, I know it happens.
It just seems that the stakes are now higher than they were before, even though I know, in reality, that is not true, either. I think a lot of it has to do with the new-found positive pressures (the fact that I want it to be next year, and I want to be on those trial teams, and I want to be the evidence maven...).
Also, we had an unlikely surprise today. Our newest neighbor is a cop; he lives right above us. And he brought us cookies. I thought it was stellar. From now on, I think the entry fee into this house will be a batch of cookies. That's the rule. So I say. :) That was definitely the highlight of the day.
Finally, I found out today that I'll get to hear Blake's (of Blake's Blinkie's fame) grandpa preach some sermons at church soon. Should be good. I'm looking forward to seeing what Mr. Smooth himself will have to live up to.
And now I'm off to the races...err, the studying...
