I am now in the final stretch of my sophomore year of college, which incredibly strange to me. I went through and changed things to say "Junior at Umass" instead of Sophomore. I'm half-way through college.
I went through all of my grades to see what I would be getting in my classes... the lowest grades I will get in them are: Psychology: B Social Problems: B Dean's Book: A- Color In The Cage/Concert Band: A Musical Theater and Popular Culture: B? (no idea) American Identities: B+/A- Thus, in all, I think I faired pretty well for this being my rough, slack-off semester. I could have done a LOT better though.
Color in the Cage was incredible. It's hard to believe that I picked up my very first flag this past summer... and now I'm, dare I say, good? The show was so much fun. The twirling show was interesting. I was set for the very first section, waiting for the music to start and what do I see crawling on the floor in front of me? A spider! Things went peachy after that until the flat toss... where Rachel's baton landed on top of my head. Great thing was, though, that I caught my own baton and kept spinning, all the while, pretending nothing happened. The look on my parents face at that moment was perfect. And Intermediate Cage... oh man. *smiles* I didn't drop my sabre. Actually, I didn't drop anything. I was on time. I loved it. Yay for adrenaline rushes! =) I'm excited for band camp now. No longer a rookie. I took out 2 flags (one for myself, and one for Aimee) and a sabre to make all of my skills stronger.
I've been RPing my life away. Harry Potter, of course. I can't help it. So addicted... not that I want to help it much. It gives me a place to write and play with my muses a bit.
I'm currently trying to find a job for the summer. We'll see how that goes. Depending on how my Sears interview goes, I may be putting in some apps at restaurants. I'm also going to be getting my bartending license this summer. (woohoo!) Seeing as I'll be 21 this coming fall, I could be raking in the tips.
As of right now, I don't have much packed in my dorm. I'm finally going home on the 26th. Why so late? 1. My last final is on the 23rd. It's an optional final, but I'd like to see if I can pull up my Social Problems grade a bit more. 2. Student security has me on a bunch of shifts up until then. AND Brian and I both decided to work Commencement on the 26th, which is great pay and easy work.
I seriously need to do laundry.
I'm hoping a LOT of people leave campus tonight because starting tomorrow night I'll be working every night up until the 24th for student security and really don't want to deal with drunk people.
Stamp prices = $0.41? Excuse me?
That's all I have for now... More at another time. Enjoy and good luck on finals.
