Sunday...I'm Bored - let's get this thing updated!

Ok, this one will be a multi-piecer...it's a long one...First up, last weeks events:

Ok...so I seriously gotta keep up with this thing...yikes!

So I just scrubbed my bathroom - that’s how bored I am...I guess it's time for this!

This week was one of revelation and much contemplation...haha...but seriously (that got you excited, didn't it?!?) But seriously, it was another week of the same old stuff. More reading, more essays, more of the same ol' story. However, there were some highlights!

There was this meeting that Kadie, Kristen and I were going to attend about Facebook, and the pros and cons of it, but instead Kadie and I just stayed up in her room and started planning out our trip for Thanksgiving...to....well, I will keep that under wraps for now - make sure things are set before divulging that. It will be a doozie - that's for sure!

Wednesday was my "let's catch up on everything that is due tomorrow" day. After class, that's exactly what I did. First, Wednesday was our third of four Academic Travel meetings. Have I mentioned that I am really excited to go to it? Seriously. She started out the time by speaking only in Italian which was kinda freaky, but ended up giving us a lot of very helpful sayings and words that will make our travel even more exciting. For the next meeting (right before taking off!) a few of us are going to give a presentation about our first cities - Genova and Portofino (everyone has to do a presentation, and the others go in the hotel the night before we visit the city). After leaving the meeting, I dashed back home to write two papers (an English definition essay about Reality TV (for those who know me well, I should have aced that thing!) and a research paper for our business seminar about the Sunbeam Corp. and the scandal with Al Dunlap). I had started both of them (mainly the research/brainstorming) but really needed to sit down and write - and that's exactly what I did. Oh, and you know how I got my new desk finally (If I hadn't said, I GOT MY NEW DESK...finally), well, I didn't get a chair, so writing at my desk was going to be difficult...that is until I went to our common room and stole a chair to use - hey, things have to be done around here...I wasn't waiting! I finished around 1am with those (thanks to the editing help of my neighbor Alexis!).

Thursday was kinda a packed and eventful day...well, night anyways. I had my English class again (the teacher was kinda tired/out of it, but class was still fun) and then I had time to rework my business paper. My seminar, though, was in a different format today - it was watch a 1950s Bollywood film with Professor Matthews English class (side note...this movie had nothing to do with our class...it was really good tho). We were being pushed till the last minute in the auditorium because of the lecture that was to follow. We actually ran out of time before the movie was done - like 3 minutes left, and they stop it. They then just told us the end...that was kinda lame to me...whatever. I then stayed for the lecture given by a woman who just returned from Tibet - very interesting, but way over the hour they told us. There was also something up with her slide show (the last picture in the series would stay up there for like 2 minutes, and everyone was all confused and now ready for it to be done). Following a quick dinner at the North Campus, it was dance lesson time! We were all kinda locked out because Petra was at dinner (who had the keys) but they arrived with someone else, so dancing continued. It was once again a fun time! It was more of the swing, but this week was more advanced because our 19 yr old pro brought her equally talented 17 yr old bro pro. They made us look really bad, and then really good with their moves. There were some jumping, swinging around the back, yo-yo moves that were crazy! I was pretty sore, but it was worth it! After that, Kadie and I visited Kandyce who was working the Falcon's Nest. We showed her some of our new moves (she was very jealous), and then we ended up staying and talking/downloading each other’s music to out iPods until the end of her shift - 1am...it was a long walk home, but it all worked out.
