Alright, here we go. I've had about a million things I wanted to say on here all day and I was too focused on getting crap done to let myself stop and write. I am so happy right now. Haha, ya, I just realized I have another paper to write by Wednesday... which I can't start until Monday. But hey, that's life. And right now I'm done with just about everything that has to be done through Monday's classes! And I'm excited about this weekend: camping and General Conference!

Let's see... I think it is pretty dang funny how many people on campus STILL have pink hair from the Festival of Colors last Saturday :) Maybe it's good I didn't go the week after I got my hair dyed... I was also pretty amazed at all the people out on campus today. Haha, it's like the weather gets warm and all these people show up! Where have they been all semester? I bet the library wasn't very full today. It was so nice out! And... that's about as warm as I want it to get. Especially walking around campus with a heavy backpack all summer. But it made me happy!

So, my day... I slept in! Yep, until nine. And then I sluffed French. It was just a review for the test and they went over the practice test I was supposed to do last night but instead I went home to spend time with my boyfriend. So glad I did too-even and maybe especially with all the stress this week :) So I worked on my British Literary History paper and read a little American Literary History and actually ate breakfast... at like 11. Zoned out through British Lit and exchanged rough drafts. I headed over to the testing center and sat outside to study French.

Now, I knew this morning that it was sunny outside and that I was going to try to study outside. And I realized I'd left my sunglasses in my car. Which wouldn't have been a problem except I had to park down my street across a busy street and didn't feel like walking there. I underestimated how sensitive my eyes are. I swear it they weren't like this until last summer... I never understood people wearing sunglasses all the time. But then, I never understood the chapstick thing either and now I'm completely addicted. So I just might spend this summer in sunglasses...

Oh, one more thing. I've said it before, but headphones are an amazing invention. Use them! Seriously! I understand wanting to crank up the music and get lost in the noise or dance around the room. But I don't do that in my apartment with five roommates. I just think it's inconsiderate. But then, maybe I should have just gone to the library-there are just plenty of rude people there-on their phones, flirting, coughing, sneezing, talking, generally being annoying... I had earplugs though! And that helped! So I'm alright :)
