I'm still alive

Things here are going well, although quite hectic.
Let's see...last weekend, I went to see Michelle's marching band championships in Hershey. That was nice. Sunday was my percussion ensemble concert, which went well. Then, mom and dad and I went out for a nice dinner.
This week has been the Human Rights Film Festival my International Social Development class has been running. Tonight is the last night. So far we've averages about 45 people a night and have sold almost 40 tshirts (which I designed!) to raise money for Human Rights Watch. About $2.50 from each shirt purchase goes to HRW.
I've spent probably a good 15+ hours since Monday putting together a proposal for the Eastern Psychological Association Conference (and no, this didn't happen b/c I procrastinated.) Tara (my research advisor) told me last week I should submit, and I didn't finish collecting data until Friday, and started data analysis Monday. The upside of doing the proposal is a lot of work that I would've had to do for my thesis is done. The conference is in March at the Sheraton in Philadelphia just in case anyone's interested.
I still have a ton of work to do in the next couple weeks, so I'll continue to be busy. But of course, there are some fun things to look forward. There's an Honor's Holiday Banquet the week after Thanksgiving. Also, 4 of us in the psych department are graduating this December, so our profs want to take us all out to dinner finals week. That should be really nice.
