Crash Course

Today's Top Five (so far..)
1. My US Institutions class was cancelled.
2. Katie and Molly chilled with me for a bit.
3. My Halloween costume is gonna rock.
4. I had waffles for breakfast.
5. I watched House last night. :) The happiness carried over.

I was gonna do ten, but the day is only half over, so I have plenty of time to find the next five. :)
This weekend was really interesting. I always love going home, cuz my familia pretty much rocks my socks. But home is just weird. It's different. It's not really home anymore. My dorm room definitely isn't home either. I'm kind of a floater, I guess. And that's ok. It just gets awkward sometimes.
Dallin and Dave came home with Katie, Molly, and me. They had never carved pumpkins before!! So I gave them a crash course in one of my favorite Halloween activities. Too bad they're both way better at it than I am. And I've had 18 years of practice. ;) It just shows that my artistic abilities are totally lacking.
I'm kind of excited for this week to be over. It's just a nasty week. And cleaning checks... Seriously, what's up with that?! I promise, I haven't trashed my dorm in the few weeks that I've lived here. Oh well, it's gonna happen. There's no point in complaining, cuz it won't make it go away.
US Institutions was cancelled today, and that's totally cool. That class gets really boring, and it's totally abstract assignment wise. We're never quite sure what she's expecting from us, which makes studying really hard. We learn some really cool stuff, and I've met some really cool people through that class, so it's worth it. It's just hard to plan for.
Taylor's farewell was yesterday. I have an odd relationship with him. I've known him for 11 years now, and while we've never been particularly close, I've always had a special place for Taylor. I definitely gained a new respect for him when we went on Trek. He's a good guy, and I'm excited for him to go on his mission and I'm excited to see how he'll change while he's gone. But I really am going to miss him. He's awesome, and we've had fun times together. I wish him the best. I know if he puts his heart into it, he'll be an amazing missionary.
Alright. Life is life, ya know? And it's mostly good. :) Things are looking up. This week is going to be interesting in many ways. I'll let you know how it goes. :D

Hey Courtney. I'm glad to hear you're doing well. How did your poem turn out? Have you revised it since we talked? Definitely let me know, I'd love to read it. Good luck this week. :)
