The Last Few Days
One more week and then this semester is over. But, I feel like it's already over. I still have to take my finals, but I'm not stressed at all. The only one I really have cause to worry about is tomorrow's Astronomy/Astrophysics exam. It's going to be a beast, a rather huge beast. But I have come to the conclusion that I will take my grade in the class and keep on moving, whatever it is. The class itself really doesn't count toward anything for me since I am changing my concentration from Astrophysics to General Physics. I'm hoping for a C in the course, but I don't know if I'll get it. But whatever. I'm fed up with it, and I'll just be happy when it's over. And after tomorrow at 2:30, it will be. :) But all my other finals should be fine. I feel mostly prepared for them all. Just got to do the cursory review before the actual exam.
I went to church yesterday (gasp!) at Oak Hill Baptist in Griffin. Yeah. You read that right. I haven't been to church in months, and instead of going to my church in McDonough 30 minutes away, I drove to Griffin, an hour away. Why on earth would I do that? I guess I could claim temporary lapse of sanity. Hehe... I actually got invited by Sheryl last weekend when I went down to Bville. It was high attendance Sunday, so everyone was supposed to bring a guest. Plus there was free food after the service. :) And the real reason comes out. Actually, I had a good time; the sermon was great, and I spent a few hours with Sheryl. That was a nice change. I usually get to see her for half an hour or so when I go visit at the high school. But I spent about four hours with her, her husband Mike, and her five-year-old son Landon. It was fun, and it sure beat studying.
After church, I went down to Bville to see some friends. Or I tried to see some friends. The only person I could get a hold of was Melanie, which was perfectly fine. We ended up spending the whole day together: going out to eat, renting a movie, playing video games with her husband Chris. We just had a great time. I ended up staying the night since we didn't get done with video games until 2am. This morning I got woken up by Regina calling me at 8:30. Yay. So I ended up getting up and hanging out with Melanie and Chris. Then Jamie called me, so I went over to the house until her and Carla left for Macon. Then I headed home since I didn't want to get caught in rush hour traffic. And on the way home I get a call from Summer, who I was unsuccessful in getting a hold of, as usual. :) So she calls me and wants to know where I am. I start laughing and tell her that I am getting off at my exit in Atlanta, and that she had missed me by an hour. She was kind of upset, which surprised me a little, but she said that she wanted to get together and have a bite to eat. So I think we are going to shoot for this weekend after she goes home to Loganville. And hopefully it'll all work out.
I had this weird little feeling today as I left Bville. I had this thought as I drove away: "I'm driving away from my past." How odd is that? Granted, that will be the last time I'm down in Bville for a long time, and most likely the last time I'll see a lot of my friends for a long time, since almost everyone is leaving the area, being scattered across all corners of Georgia. So, as my mom says, it's the end of yet another chapter in my book of life.
And with that, I bid you all adieu for the evening. Good luck on finals for those who have to take them! Cheers!
