Well, today was... a lot! I had my computer science final this afternoon, and before that I had to try and motivate myself to do some work. I had a chicken salad, a breadstick and some fries for lunch, which was really good! I think I did pretty well on my compsci final, and afterwards I sat near this guy I really like in the library! I was reading some of my favourite British literature in an attempt to capture his attention (he's an English major) but I think I failed. Oh well! A friend of mine who knows him said she'd introduce us but given it's finals week I don't know if she'll have time. Why is it that when I finally have a crush who I can trust would be a good boyfriend, and I've gotten to a place where I almost (keyword almost) have the courage to tell him something about it, it's finals week? I'm going to have to see if any of my friends can sus his Instagram account or something. Even though I don't like Instagram. And I haven't posted to my account in like a year, so it might be suspicious. But I digress!

I also had my linguistics final today, which was on-line, so I did it with a friend from my k-pop club (the professor lets us do tests with our friends--I feel like she doesn't care, but in a good way) and then we had dinner afterwards. It was really fun! I think I needed some social interaction today after holing up studying and taking exams for the past few days.

I'm really gonna miss my college friends this summer! I live in this small little town about two or three hours from the city where most of my friends from college live. Thankfully, I'm going to be able to meet up with Blue and Green though! And hopefully Pink (for blog newcomers--a longtime friend since childhood who's now going to college in Europe. Sadly he seems to have drifted away from most of us stateside, though) as well, and some other old friends. And hopefully I'll also finally get a car so I can drive to my friends' house and maybe even drive into the city to visit my college friends!

But yeah, I am exhausted. I also finished my French essay today but I haven't turned it in yet because honestly I really don't want any feedback. I don't want to think about that class anymore! I just want to be done.

I also have a statistics exam to study more for tomorrow, and my English final is halfway done. Hopefully I'll have it done by the weekend, because I'm going on holiday Monday! I'm going abroad to spend a week with family. I'll make posts here about it as the holiday happens, but for now I'll let it be because again, I'm exhausted. I need to go take a shower and get ready for bed. Good night, y'all!

Well, holy crap, y'all! I meant to post this weekend, but my weekend was too jam-packed!

Saturday morning, the two kids I teach English played each other in little league soccer (or whatever it's called. I may be a soccer teacher (does that exist?) but I'm not a soccer mom yet. In any case, I think I might sign my kids up for dance instead.) and since one of the members of my English teaching group is coach for one of their teams, a lot of us went out to support them! It was also a sort of team-building activity, but, y'know, an actually fun one--not a ropes course or crap like that. I HATE ROPES COURSES! Which is why I've always come up with excuses not to go on them. Ha ha ha! Anyways, one of the kids comes from Latin America, and his family had a bunch of snacks from their home country that they shared with us, which was really sweet of them! I don't remember the name, but it was some sort of special bread with chicken, mayo and some various veggies. They were so good! I even got to take one home for dinner that night.

And then as soon as I got home, two of my roommates and I went and had pizza and ice cream! It was really fun, even though I'm always at odds with one of them. I mean, with my three current roommates, I have one I love, that one I have a love-hate relationship with, and the other one that I'm just always annoyed with--but enough of airing my dirty laundry on the Internet. It was a really nice time! And I got them both to like a k-pop song--MAGO by GFRIEND, to be exact.

Then that night, a friend and I went to Wal-Mart! We're in the K-Pop Club together at our college, and we were buying some presents for two of our members, since we have one graduating and one transferring.

The next day, another friend and I went to this little Chinese restaurant in town (who had maybe the best beef and broccoli and vegetable lo mein I've ever had!!) and then went to Wal-Mart again! This time we got a prize for the activity we had planned for our meeting tonight (a Kahoot where we guessed who added what song to our group Spotify playlist) and I got some DVDs, and I got a cookie cake (because I lurrrve cookie cakes) for our meeting tonight. And then I called Blue and Green (for any newcomers to my blog, Blue is my bestie for the restie that I've known since middle school, and Green is our other best friend from high school) until pretty late.

And then there was today! We had our last k-pop club meeting of the semester tonight, and it was a little emotional. Both our leaving members really liked their gifts, which was really heartwarming! I'm gonna miss them all so much but I'm so glad I've gotten to know them. :)

(There was some more here but my browser crashed and I lost it! Grr D:< )

Well, I finally have both my final essay assignments, which makes things easier. I started on my French essay yesterday, and I'm going to start on my English today. I also started studying for my statistics test, a week and a half ahead of time--yay me! And I think we're going to review in my compsci class today. I don't know what else we'd be doing--we had better not be covering any new material! I already have a compsci assignment to finish for Friday, which is less than a week before the final when we don't really have much to study either. He normally gives a little study guide, which I really hope is enough! And then there's linguistics, which is an on-line class, and she always lets us use our notes and all, so I'm not concerned about that. But y'all, I'm so tired. Just over a week left!

Well, today my only class was cancelled, so I've been having a relatively chill morning in! So far, I've finished my statistics and compsci homework (with some struggling, especially with the stats!), and I've had four cups of tea. (Or rather three and two-halves--one cup of Earl Grey got lukewarm too quickly and this blueberry lemon tea I tried for the first time tasted like cleaning supplies. Yech.)

And I'm not talking normal teacups, either, or even normal mugs, but this bigger tumbler-like thing I got from Starbucks ages ago that my parents found in the back of the cupboard at home. I'd say it's probably a mug and a half-sized, so that means I've had (humanities major struggling to do math) six cups of tea today! (And some nice biscuits--thanks, Mum!) And so when I was making my last thing of tea, I had a flashback to that scene from the first episode of Gilmore Girls:

Me: Please, Lizzie, please, please, please.
Also me: How many cups have you had today?
Me: None.
Also me: Plus?
Me: Three. But the fourth is better.

Well, shall I start shopping scripts out to the networks? I mean, my principal in fourth grade did compliment my comedic timing in our class play on the fifty states... maybe I've just got that magic touch.

Anyways, I'm going to have some Chinese food and Gilmore Girls (very topical, eh?) for lunch as my reward for a (relatively, consider I kinda slept like crap) productive morning, and then onwards to Citation Station to finish up my English essay.

Agh!

Things are busy and bustling around here, while at the same time more dead. For some reason, a lot of my friends are leaving early for Easter weekend and making themselves a long weekend, so only a couple of my friends are going to be on campus after today and I won't have many people to hang out with. Which is probably for the better, as I'm very busy. I've still got to finish an English essay for hopefully tomorrow, but before I worry about that I have computer science homework (which really should've stayed a hobby!) and a French assignment.

Which, by the way, sent me on a wild goose chase for about 45 minutes last night because I thought one question was about a different poem than it was, because my professor's headers on his assignments kind of blend together. So what should've been a simple question I remember the answer too off the top of my head turned into a 45-minute expedition through the entire French and English Internets to figure out what "traditional/canonical form" "Au lecteur" by Baudelaire is. (Hint: none. "Correspondances", on the other hand, is a sonnet.)

Hence why I say "agh!". Well, I have an hour before French class, so I should at least try and get something done this morning, I reckon.

Pre-Summer

Back at ya again! Now I'm sitting in my library. I never normally go to the library on weekends, or in the evening, but I always love it when I do so maybe I should more often! Anyways, even though a few weeks ago I was kind of dreading summer, I don't think I am anymore. I can work to keep myself busy, and at least one of my friends should be in town so I can hang out! And I'm (fingers crossed) FINALLY going to get my license (yes, I still don't have it, and yes, I'm more embarrassed about it than you are shocked) over the summer so I might be able to visit some of my college friends! Also, I put together a summer playlist that I've been jamming to over the past few days! (Actually, I just had to pause midsentence writing that in order to jam out to All Mine by f(x). So I've been having a pretty epic time.)

Also, I've been having such a hectic week! I'll really miss my friends, but I won't miss the work (although I do love my English class) and I won't miss the roommate drama, which I won't even get into here because I'm trying to get over it and let it go, but suffice it to say I've had a dramatic week. And then yesterday I spent all day until like 9:00 PM working on my compsci homework! I had the whole suite of emotions, from "I'm dropping this like it's hot" to "I love this it's so fun!", and I had basically no human interaction all day yesterday either, which made for a treat. But despite not getting enough sleep last night, I've had a pretty chill day today! I even chose on a whim to eat dinner outside since it was really nice out, although I had to come inside the library for the last little bit since the wind got pretty cold all of a sudden.

But yeah, it's been a pretty good day! I'll try to work more on the site tomorrow if I have time. Also, my polycarbonate MacBook has become an object of admiration from other people! Just now a couple clubmates of mine complimented me on it, and this guy in my stats class (who I don't really like but that's a different story) did too. It's so cute and I really need to put it on my computers page! I actually think I'll do that just now. Toodles!
