Ok, so the confirmation retreat went ok, the kids didn't want to be there (surprise, surprise) and I spent a lot of the time talking because they just stared at me and refused to speak. It was fun to be with all the Salt and Lighters though. I love those guys! Although, lord help me if Donny ever drives us again. That's taking my life in my hands. All he kept saying was "I love U turns!" and me made a lot of them.
Went to Shane's 22nd B-day party that night, and it was really a good time minus the pouring rain I walked in to get there. There was a little bit of inappropriate behavior on the part of a drunk Louis, but it was more just uncomfortable conversation then anything else, and really, that's not all that different from Sober Louis. I was drinking, but I was not in any form of the imagination drunk.
I slept till 1 on Sunday, then did some homework and went to Caitlyn and Carrie's room to watch the superbowl. It really was a Salt and Light Weekend. It ended with all of us meeting for mass at 10:15. Gotta love the S&L kids.
Today's classes made me realize how much work I have to do these days, and that's ok, except that I am running out of time. I have a history exam, chem exam, bio exam, and spanish paper all due a week from Wednesday, and a 6 page sociology research paper due a week from Thursday. Katie's sisters and Perusi's cousins are spending the weekend here for Siblings weekend this weekend, and Caitlin is coming out for her winter break a week from Friday. Tonight I am also meeting all the girls that I may potentially be rooming with next year, and that makes me really nervous. I only know a couple of them already. (We live in 8 man suites, hopefully, because if we don't get that, we have to break into 6 man, then 4 man, then doubles and triples, and the whole housing process has made this whole place stressed. Way too many friendships have been destroyed this week, and I have seen way too many girls sobbing into cell phones. It's been horrible.)
I find out where I am going on Appalachia Spring break and who my trip leaders are and who is in my team sometime this week, and that also makes me nervous. I really hope it is a nice group.
I also started volunteering at the student admissions office as a greeter to potential students. So, I volunteer there from 10-11 on Tuesday mornings. It should be fun. Tomorrow is my first day. This is the one day a week I have to sleep in, and I do get an hour extra of sleep, but at least this way I am forced to get up and be productive.
I know that I can handle all of this work, and extra stuff, it's just that I would rather not. I'm with Caroline...who wants a Mai Tai?
