Okay, so I got pretty slack about updating. There was a lot going on, and half the time I was too tired to try to update coherently, and the rest of the time, I just didn't care. Those of you who actually read about this probably know what was going on, and if you don't, just ask, I don't want to get into it. But now to be back on track with things:
Spring break was incredible. It was my first spring break trip, and I must say, Chapel Hill/Orlando/Cocoa Beach is not a bad one to do. Laura and Joci were a blast to hang out with, as usual, and I got to know Joci's lil, Kelly. Way too much fun to adequately describe. Laura has pictures of the madness up here. FYI: soporific
Now it's back to the grind. The second biochem exam is next Wednesday, so I'm trying to start studying for it now. I do not want to get used to a new testing style with lectures that are much less satisfactory than last semester's. Yay for teaching yourself biochemistry. Or not.
Lots of stuff is going on with APO. We have nominations for the next couple of weeks for officers next year. I'm currently nominated for VP of Fellowship, and as of next week, I'll be nominated for VP of Membership. Fellowship sounds like a lot of fun, but the more I think about it, I might be better suited for Membership. Dori (the current Membership VP) was really excited that I'm interested in the position. It's nice that we can sorta run for both and get one. I like the idea of letting the Brotherhood decide which, if any, position they want me to fulfill. I got my penpal for the Tekoa Girls project. Reading her letter was really exciting. It seems that we have a fair amount in common (granted, that for the most part is yet to be seen). So far I know she likes Tool, APC, and Harry Potter. It's a good start. :)
Megan is going to come and visit the weekend of April 7th. I can't wait. It's only been a few months, but it's one of the longest times we've gone since I was 11 that we've been apart. It's like I'm going through withdrawl. There are a couple of service events going on that Saturday that we're going to go to. They're the fun ones with kids, and she seems like she wants to do them. Then she'll get to meet the APO crowd, which is cool.
I'm attempting to keep slightly more "normal" hours, so it's bedtime for me. Lots to get done tomorrow.
