Huzzah!! and an Update =]

Hell Week is over!!!!!!

and it's only Wednesday! Not too shabby.....

Granted...these first couple days just have not been kind to me. My ecology test was...ridiculous. 40 short answer questions! Literally took me almost two hours to do with writing as fast as I could. Talk about some serious hand cramps! Honestly (even though I say this a lot) I don't think I did very well on it. Some questions I just flat out did not answer because I had no clue =/. Others I feel I knew really well...so we'll see! He admitted he's a slow grader so it might be awhile before I get to see the results of my studying. I should have done A LOT more though. I really dropped the ball there. It just sucks that I can't even take a weekend off to go home and chill with my family without falling desperately behind in school and having to endure a stretch of days like the last few have been.

Today I had my Animal Physiology test. Oof. Also all writing and no multiple choice (what is with these professors. WHY do they want to grade all those papers? lol). The "essay" portion (there were 3 we had to do) I feel pretty confident in. He gave us 8 options and we had to choose 3. I was debating between 4 and I hope I made the right choice about which to leave out. The last one was really a trade up. Also completely and totally guessed on several things. 15 definitions...probably a good half I only got 1/2 credit for, hopefully the other half I'll get full credit. Two short answer one was TOTAL b.s. the other I'm pretty sure I got.

It's frustrating to spend sooo much time preparing for an exam and to not see the benefits of it come out. Not to sound like a Debbie Downer, I was much more prepared for my Animal Phys. test then I thought I was. But still...after hours of my life are taken away I'd like to think that I deserve an A! On to greener pastures I suppose!

Today is Ash Wednesday! So I went to church with BBF (boy best friend) and we got ashes on our head then we got dinner with some of his brothers and then watched curling on the olympics! Let's pause for a moment so I can talk about how obsessed I've been with the olympics as of late. It's ridiculous. Anyway we started watching it as a joke...and then we all actually got really hooked into it.To make a long story short...after hours of my life were spent watching U.S.A. (woot woot) play Switzerland..we lost. In overtime!! Very disappointing. But the boys are always entertaining so I guess that made it worth it =].

Over the weekend I got to go hoooome!!! I didn't realize how much I really needed it until I got there. Friday I went to El Zarape with GBF1 (gay best friend) and GBF2 and we had a good time =]. I miss them even though we go to the same college because we really don't get to hang out that much. We have completely opposite schedules and GBF1 is constantly practicing and GBF2 is student teaching now which consumes a lot of his time. So it was nice to chill with them for awhile and enjoy their company! Then we went home and I got to see my pup! and my fam!! (minus sister >.<, thanks for that only follower!) It was soooooooo nice to see them all and made me really excited for spring break! I really think I need it lol.

An olympics commerical is on right now. I love those commericals. and I love Morgan Freeman.

Saturday I got to go to a great thrift store near the home (<3) that I loooooove. Found some nice treasures! And I got to drive the van. I think I'm in love with it. It's a purple mini van...and I am envious of it! It's so smooth and you're so high up and it's perfect! I got 3 skirts, 5 dresses, a sweater, a jacket, shoes and something else for like...30 bucks I believe. Awesome!

Sunday we drove to work with my dad and got to see the cemetary and then since he only had to do 2 hours we went to a little shopping plaza down the street which was fun! Then it was back to the good ol' college town to manic studying and laundry and all that fun stuff.

People keep looking at me today because of the black ash on my forhead lol. You'd think by now people would catch on. It's not like I'm the only one! I'm pretty sure I'm giving up all sweets! (i.e. ice cream, cookies, brownies anything like that). It's already hard. BBF had cookies and reese's and kit kats all over his dorm. So tempting!

What are y'all giving up (if anything) How was your weekend?
