Grades

I got my grades today. I did really well. 4 As, an A-, and a B+. My GPA is now a 3.7, which is up a bit from last year. I'm pretty happy about that.

I head home tomorrow, for a busy break. Somewhere in between everything I have planned I have stuff to do for work, and I want to start looking for jobs.

I'm sure I'll see most of you while I'm home, so I'm not going to ramble on here. If I don't see you, have a great holiday!

I survived...

This semester is finally over! I've written 4 papers, done 3 presentations, and taken 1 final in the past week. I slept in 2-4 hour shifts whenever I couldn't function anymore. Thursday night I got home and crashed for about 13 hours. Everyone I know says this is the hardest semester they've ever hard, which is a bit odd since we all took some different classes. I'm just glad it's finally over. Last night I hung out with some of our neighbors. We went out and played pool for a while, then started to watch Mystery Science Theater 3000, but we were all falling asleep so I came home and went to bed. I feel much better after catching up on sleep and finally not being stressed or having school work hanging over my head.
I plan on just relaxing the next couple days and cleaning a bit. Mike has finals tilThursday, so I'm going to pick him up after his final on Thursday and head home. Break is going to be pretty busy. Next weekend, a bunch of us are going camping (we're getting a cabin, not tents), the following weekend, I'm going away for the weekend for a wedding. I may head back to Pittsburgh after that. I haven't decided what I'm doing for new years yet.
Here's a few pictures from the past couple weeks. Not too much exciting happened since I was doing work the whole time. We did have a bachelorette party for my friend whose wedding I'm going to. We just hung out here at our house and had a Sex and the City theme - stilettos, crazy flowers, & martinis.
Sandra headed back to Zimbabwe at the beginning of the week to see her family.
