I wrote this yesterday, right before dad came to get me:

Well, it’s been a really long time! I have just been SO BUSY! But, now it’s time for the last update on
this particular blog. So, get ready,
it’s about to be a long ride!
College life has been really busy since Easter break because
finals were fast approaching and Greek week was two weeks ago as well, and then
final papers were due and finals week!
So, that means that the first week back from break was spent with a lot
of practicing for Greek week, and the following week was spent with Greek week
events every night; last week was the last week of classes, so there was a lot
to do, and this past week was finals week!
Hardly anything happened the first week back except for
classes and a lot of Greek Week Practices.
My first weekend back; however, was exciting; it was induction for Chi
Omega. So, I’m officially an initiated
sister, now!

Greek Week was busier than the previous week. Between classes and all of my homework, Greek
Week events were every night except Tuesday; Tuesday was special (but, I’ll get
to that in a little bit). :-) On Monday night, all the Greeks played
basketball; I missed Tuesday; Wednesday was Football; Thursday was the Greek
Olympics (There was an eating contest, an obstacle course (of which I was a
part), a jousting competition, a 5-legged race, and a chariot race.); and
Friday was Sing and Sync (This is the event for which we spent hours and hours
practicing. For the sync, all the
sororities and frats come up with a dance that involves the members of the
sorority doing the same moves in sync; for the sing, all the sororities and
frats change the words to several songs to make them fit that particular
sorority or frat.). We came in 4th
overall out of 4 sororities.

Although all that was fun, Tuesday held the major event for
the week. Mum, dad, and I went to a
Bruce Springsteen concert in Ohio! It
was GREAT!!!! Springsteen played a total
for 25 songs. J That was Springsteen concert number 3 for me!
The week before finals (also the week after Greek Week, or
the third week after break), was really really busy, but I got through it and
began my second finals week (one last semester, and then one this
semester.
Oh, yea, after classes on the final day of classes, the
college hosted a farewell festival: they had white shirts and tye-dye stuff,
lots of YUMMY food (walking tacos, gelato, funnel cakes, cotton candy,

Luckily, I only had three finals to take (although I took
five classes, I didn’t have to take my Scriptures final because my professor
said that if you had an A before the final, you didn’t have to take it. I also didn’t have to take an OWE II final
because Dr. Hall counts our final paper and final presentation as our
finals. So, Monday of finals week, I
took a Calculus II final. Then,
Wednesday, I took a Western Humanities II final… at 8 am, and today, I took
another 8 am final in Physics.
My grades for this semester stand as follows:
Calculus II: B
Western Humanities II: A
Physics: A+
OWE II: A
Scriptures: A

So, other than Calculus II, I’m pretty pleased. Well, it’s time for me to go; dad just called
and said that he was stuck waiting for the train to pass in Greenville. That means that he will be here in about two
minutes. (I’ve been packing up and
cleaning my room all day; now it’s time to load the car!). I’ll be home in 4-5 hrs depending on how long
it takes to load the truck. Then, once I
get home, I am going to turn around again to go see The Avengers at midnight
with some of my friends. I’m
excited! (and I’m also excited to read
some books that aren’t textbooks!!!!!!!)

Well, have a great summer!
I hope you all survive without my blog until next school year!
