Dead week - not quite living up to its name
I've had a rather busy week for it being dead week.
Tuesday I woke up from a dream about missing my lab exam, obviously my subconscious had great faith in me :] But it wasn't too bad, so that was nice :] And that's the class with a final at 3.30pm on Saturday, but it's optional so with the third lab and lecture exam scores, I don't have to take it! Woo!
I went to my stat class and then for a run after then, and then I had work. I worked a Purdue Student Government and Santa was there! It was a fun shift.
While I was there, I was elected COM Vice President again, and I still haven't been to an election. Go me :]
Wednesday I didn't have EAS - they were reviewing for the final exam and I'm not taking it :D
After my classes, I got lunch with my Big and Twin for Larn's birthday - unfortunately Jason and Billy couldn't be there. That was fun :] I read after that and watched Serenity (the movie conclusion to the Firefly series) at Wesley before getting to hang with Geoff for a bit.
Thursday I got to sleep in a bit, and then I had taken Wednesday to relax so Thursday I studied just about all day at Wesley. I left for the house dinner, where we had a white elephant exchange, and then it was time for Psi informal rush. There were so many prospectives there, it was awesome :]
Seth had been playing through a campaign of Halo 4 so I could see the ending, and so he finished that up for me that evening.
Friday I had classes, and then there was a Harry Potter movie marathon going on at Wesley. I only got to watch half of two movie, though, before it was time to go to the NCAA women's volleyball regionals. I got a buy-one-get-one deal on Cyber Monday, so Geoff and I were planning to go. Then, during this week, I saw that the Purdue team was going to be playing on Friday so I was super excited :] We lost, unfortunately, but it was still fun to go.
Saturday I had another white elephant thing with Psi (I used my present from the house exchange - it was apple things, which I wouldn't eat, and hair spray, which I don't use). Then it was time for final chapter, which wasn't too long since there were no seniors to rant. After that, we went to El Rodeo, and then my room was super bloody cold so I chilled in common room with Seth, Kyle and Ryan Hossler all afternoon :]
Today I woke up at 10.30 and immediately wondered what was wrong with me - I never sleep that late.
My run today was 8 miles, in the cold and the rain. After I realized how cold it was with my wet stuff on I took a very hot shower, and then spent 4 hours on the couch because I felt like crap. I was slightly worried - what are the symptoms of hypothermia?? - but afer I slept a little I felt better. I suppose 1.5 hours in the cold rain was just going to kick my butt either way.
And today was Mario's last Sunday with us :[ He's going to Boston next semester to go to Seminary, and to be closer to his daughter, which I think is really good for him. But I'm gonna miss him.
And now I'm back on the couch to watch some football!
Sorry for the short post, but it's finals week next week so I'm kinda stressed. This should be a fun week - I can't wait till 3pm on Thursday - I'll be done!
Till then,

Is it Christmas break yet??
This weekend was an awesome one, and I was tired which is why this is getting written a day late :]
Monday it was back to classes an I decided that I didn't want to do school anymore. I'm ready for this semester to be over - just about everything I'm looking forward to (Christmas, getting a little, going to Disney for my birthday) is beyond finals.
After my classes I had time to relax before going to orchestra.
Tuesday I had my classes and then work, where I was the only student scheduled to work so I did some studying for the exam I had on Wednesday. And then people were watching The Expendables 2 so I joined them. Before the movie started, I wrote this down: 'Based on the cast, I think I know what's going to happen. There will be lots of explosions, lots of firefights, some sort of discernible plot but mostly it's gonna be action eye candy.'
And what do you know - my prediction was pretty spot on :D
Wednesday I got up to register for my Spanish class, or not? The system said it was open registration, yet it still said there was a hold on upper-level Spanish classes.
I had to take my exam, so I did that and went to my classes, and then when I checked again I could register. At least I got into the section I wanted.
I got some food and watched Brave, then had to go to the grocery store. After I relaxed a bit more before going to orchestra, where we got to rehearse with the singers! There was one guy that had a mustache that curled up at the ends, and the first words we heard him say was 'Maids like me, I'm neat.' And he did a little twich thing with his mustache - it was hilarious. I was cracking up :]
After orchestra I watched Jurassic Park 2 with Geoff and then it was time to sleep.
Thursday I went for a run and to my stat class, then had exec at Wesley, and painted stuff for Psi rituals, and had a Stat exam. So after that I played Kingdom Hearts for a bit.
Friday morning and afternoon went something like this:
+classes
+chill at Elliott
+slate at Elliott
+chill at Elliott
+equipment move at Elliott
So I was sitting in Elliott quite a bit. Slate is a Psi thing - when you submit a petition for an exec position you have a meeting with slete. Slate then submits a lineup of who they think should be in the positions during elections. I had submitted a petition for Treasurer so I had to meet with Slate.
After moving various concert equipment to the Long Center, we had a rush event with Psi. We were going to go ice skating, but the ice skating place was still closed so we went to Great Skates - a roller rink. I'm not a good roller blader, so I just sat to the side and talked with people. It was a good choice too.
When we decided to leave, I got to hang with Geoff for a bit before we had to sleep - we both had to be up early.
Saturday I was up for elections - they were at 8.30 (gag me with a spork) so that was... joyous. I didn't get elected as treasurer, but I was nominated for a few positions from the floor (like while we were at elections people nominated me) so that was a nice compliment.
I had to leave a bit early for rehearsal, and then my mom was here! We went walking around downtown Lafayette and then went to the hotel to laugh at Pinterest together before my concert. And it was such a fun concert! I miss pit, so that was really fun for me. By the way - this is a video from the concert, the mustache man is the one standing closest to Andy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=EfFsVFoRdKE
After the concert, we did some more laughing at Pinterest and talked with dad before crashing.
Sunday we got to sleep in! That was exciting for both of us :D We got brunch at a fun little resturaunt in Lafayette and then went to the GABS game. Unfortunately, the marching band people that weren't being exempted to be at GABS were using their horns for the Lafayette Christmas Parade, so there weren't enough tubas for me and the one other girl that isn't a marching tuba :[ So I traded off with Roach (all the marching toobahs have nicknames) and it was still fun :]
That evening was the MOW Christmas dinner, but after getting back from GABS I didn't want to do anything else so I played some more Kingdom Hearts and Geoff came over for a little while and then it was sleepy time - but I didn't have to wake up for EAS!
Today was the start of deas week - and so it begins.
I went to my classes and read for a bit, then had a short orchestra - we just turned in music and talked about what's going on in the future. We're taking an international trip in May 2014! They had one in 2011 but I was already going to go to London, so it's time to start saving my pennies for this next one :D
Then I came back to the house and watched some old Doctor Who while studying - the 80's episodes are weird. I have a lab exam tomorrow, this should be interesting.
Later!
