Whew! I'm glad that's over. I don't like giving presentations, I just don't.  I have no problem making powerpoints, doing research, or writing papers, but I don't like giving prestentations. I don't care how big the audience is, I'm just not comfortable with it. *shrugs*

It's sunny out finally. YAY! After three days of clouds and rain. *shudders* And it's warm out! DOUBLE YAY!  And all the big projects for the school year are done! YAY!  Now, I can relax. Finals are not a big deal. Never were, hopefully never will be.

A very dear friend of mine is leaving for Navy Basic Training tomorrow so a whole bunch of his friends and family had a going-away/birthday party for him tonight. It was one of those sereal, happy/sad moments.  Now the whole night feels that way.  I'm happy for him because he's finally getting to do what he's always wanted and he's thrilled. Sad because is his my friend of six years, high-school and part of college, and now he is going to war...and I'm scared to death for him.  It was sereal because the two previously mentioned things combined perfectly, on a perfect spring night. It was cool, sunny, and just a bit breezy.

I don't think...no, I know I've never felt I was going to miss someone this much after they left.  Except a family member dying. That's the only other time I've cried of anyone leaving. Weird feeling much? Yeah.

Wow! Very busy weekend. Left home Wednesday evening, on my way to Virginia, stopped at my grandparents house for the night after travelling for an hour and a half. Left the next morning at 7:30 am, drove all day, and arrived in Lynchburg, VA around 3:30pm. Spent the next two days going to classes and tours of the college campus. Oh, yeah, I was there to look at a college that I might transfer to next fall. We'll see...

Anyway, the weather was beautiful, so was the campus. Actually had to stay on campus, in a dorm, which was a first for me. The room was nice and large...supposed to be a triple, but the third person had moved out so it was more...roomy. 

And I got to see the bands House of Heroes, Skillet, and tobyMac in concert...for free!!  And I didn't loose my voice or my hearing, a fact that I am very happy about.

Then, of course, I came all the way back home on Sunday. Then worked Sunday night into Monday morning. *thumbs up* And now I have...four papers/assignments due within the next two weeks! Life is busy right now, very very busy.  But I prefer it that way...I really don't like to be bored.

It's hard to watch someone you love slow slip away from you. Especially when you both know that it's happeneing and that there's not really anything you can do about it. Even when there's the possibility that they might come through and live a bit longer, you realize that it still won't be long.

But it's okay. 'Cause I'll see him again someday, when he goes. It'll be a long wait, but I'll see him again, because of this wonder day, Easter. WHOO!! Gotta hold on to that hope, otherwise..."we of all men are most miserable."


God Bless everyone,

And today, I am back at school...

Have two mid-terms this week, one tomorrow and one on Thursday...and I haven't done any studying for either. *grimace* So, I guess I know what I'm going to be doing for the next two nights in a row. *sigh*

And I might have to work tonight but I'm not sure, so that's another thing I have to do today.  Yeah, life is back.

Spring training for soccer stared today too. That was fun! Mostly because I got to go sit in an ice bath atferwards. It felt soooo good! Oh my goodness, that was awesome!

...
...

I guess that's it for now. If you are/did/have been read/reading this...have a totally awesome day/week/month/year!!

So, I feel like I totally bombed my test yesterday. I didn't study for it...because I was busy trying to write my papers. Terrible excuse, I know, but at least I tried to do well on the test. Even though I know I didn't.

I have a mid-terms tomorrow, on Thurs, have two more on the 24th, have another one on the 25th. AND, I have two paper due Thurs, one due on Fri, and one due on the 24th. I am busy.

Aaaaand, spring training for soccer starts on the 22nd, right after I get back from two weeks of doing nothing (spring break).  I am about to be very very busy. But I'd rather be busy than bored. I go nuts when I'm bored. Trust me, you don't want to see it. xD

Oh, yeah!! I got my 1st Lietenent promotion last Wednesday!! WHOOOOO! I'd been trying to get it for almost two years, so that was a big accomplishment for me. I celebrated with chocolate milk and a cheeseburger. lol  Two more months and I could make captain! hehehe.

Homework, and Vacation, and Mid-terms...Oh my!!! ((Yes I modified the quote from the "Wizard of Oz"...which I don't own btw))

Homework and lots off it. Five papers, all due within the next week. Oh, goodie. Yes, my voice is dripping with sarcasm.  But I've got three done so far so I'm doing alright.

Vacation!! Yes! A whole two weeks of it. I can't tell you how much I'm looking foward to that right now. Like, really, really, really, really looking foward to vacation. I'll have all day to do absolutely nothing...almost. But it will be really nice to have a break and be able to relax a little bit.

Mid-terms. *groan* Thank goodness one of my classes doesn't have a mid-term. Instead, we have a class project. Great. Besides that I have about...six or seven actual mid-terms...tests, whatever. And most of them are going to also happen sometime with in the next week to three weeks(counting vacation). Super-duper.

So I am very busy and having a great time. Somehow I just can't do without the activity. Even though I complain about having a lot to do all the time, if I had to choose between having too much to do and not doing hardly anything... I would go with choice a). Hands down. I get moody when I'm bored and I don't like being that way. It makes life difficult.

Yep. Over all, doing absolutely fantasic. Hope you're doing the same.

Okay,okay, okay....almost three feet of snow now and it's all very wet and very heavy. It makes for great snowmen and snowball fights, etc. but it's an absolute pain to have to shovel all day. But I did get my upper body workout in today so I'm good.  If this keeps up much longer, I'm going to seriously in shape in a couple of weeks. No joke.

Oh yeah. School was cancelled today!! WHOOO! I love long weekends. And I really needed this one 'cause I have a lot of homework to do. Only two assignments that are particularly  pressing and I already have one...and a bit of the next one...done so...I'm moving along. On schedule, however you want to put it.

I did go through two pairs of jeans and socks today. Why? Because I'd rather not wear my snowpants if I don't really have to, and my "waterproof" boots are losing their "waterproof-ness".  Yeah, I spent that much time outside today starting at 5:30am. Good stuff! Seriously.  The other down side is that it's really warm out. Like 37 degrees. I used to 10-15 max, and all my ice is melting so now that I finally have snow, the ice is melting and it's warm out. All those weeks when 20 degrees was really high and we had no snow whatsoever and now...this. How ironic.

Anyway. Life's still good. In fact it's awesome! Unbelieveingly awesome!!*two thumbs up*

Praise God, I got the job!!! YEEESS!! I really needed this job and I'm so happy I got it! Just in case you couldn't tell. xD 

And...(drum roll) we now have almost two feet of snow that has fallen in two days!! Awesomness! So we went from literally nothing, except in the snowpile spots, to almost being snowed in. This is great! The power even went out today for about three or four hours. Now this...is what winter is supposed to be like.

God Bless,
