I'm procrastinating even though I know I shouldn't be. Oh, well.
This is the last week of class for the semester, and I am THRILLED. This semester felt really super fast.
Cal is going to the Las Vegas Bowl to play against the BYU Cougars. I have mixed feelings about the bowl game. I hate that it's so close to Christmas, but at the same time it's nice that it's right in the beginning of break so I don't have to leave in the middle of it like I had to last year. So the athletic department sucks balls and is going to fly dance team, rally comm, and the mic-men, but they're too cheap to fly us over there so the band gets to take a bus to Vegas. Yes, a bus to Vegas. Now if you don't know, according to mapquest that's 9 hours, but when you factor in rest stops, food stops, etc. it is going to be about 12 hours. *shakes an angry fist at the athletic department* This factor really made me not want to go, but then Jeremy had the idea that I should just drive myself to Vegas which will be considerably faster than the bus, and that way after the game I can drive myself home which will only take about 4 hours. That is much better than bussing there for 12 hours, having to go to the game on the 22nd, bussing back to Berkeley on the 23rd and then driving to LA on the 24th.
This is really random, but I noticed in college (or at least here) that people don't seem to get sick as much.. or even if they do they still drag themselves to class. I just remember in high school whenever you had a small cold you wouldn't go to school at all. I wonder how that works. Oh well. Go bears. Beat the finals.
