I'm on a podcast!!
Ridiculous day, here are the high points.
***Found out Barack Obama is running for President. You can cast my ballet now: Barack Obama, 2008.
***Won the team table tennis intramurals with Tony Ciasto. I showed up to play last Thursday with a high fever, nausea, sore throat, cough, headache, and an earache. I knew it would be easy and I’d be back in bed soon. We played 2 teams of frat boys, and I was back in bed within 30 minutes (two of the games were skunks, 11-0) I actually vomited later that night, an activity I think I’ve done no more than 5 times in my life.
It was worth it though, because tonight I was back in fighting shape and the competition was significantly better (we had to play the champions of all the earlier nights). We won both our matches, and are now team intramural champs!
Here’s a pod cast that the newspaper here did after the final match:

***Might sign up to study abroad in Spain over the summer. The trip is 6 weeks long and worth 6 credit hours, including credit for the next Spanish class in the sequence (which I wouldn’t have to take my senior year then). Supposedly it’s a beautiful location on the coast of Spain. Spending the summer next to the ocean while getting credits sounds so nice.
***Got two tests back today. Both were taken last week when I was in my terrible sick state described above. I got 72/75 on my nonwestern music test, and it looks like a 112/113 on the Spanish test. I was beating myself up over my mistakes, but I guess both tests were the high for the class.
