2 weeks and counting...

Two weeks and counting to the end of the school year, then another week until everybody graduates. Julie and Rachel will be graduating and I think I've come to grips with that fact. I finally finished their presents. I had put it off for so long cause I knew that if I finished, it was like me admitting that they were graduating and actually allowing them to leave. As Rach will be in Clemson next year, interning at Crosspoint, I will not be as pouty as I could have been. Julie has an interview in Greenville tomorrow, so lots of prayers are going up that she gets a job there and can stay in Clemson too.

Amy had prom this weekend. Looked fabulous. I must share a picture...
Isn't that an awesome dress?

I am on duty in the lab this morning. Of course this is the morning when everything goes slightly wrong. Everyone and their mother wants a DVD player at 11:00 and failed to call before today to reserve it, but the whole not being able to find the second DVD player is causing a bigger problem. I shall be glad to get out of here in 10 minutes and leave the lab in the capable hands of Diana, our exchange student from Spain.

This past week/weekend has been interesting. I have played more than my fair share of Super Smash Brothers (and gotten halfway decent at it. at least decent enough to kick paul berger's butt a few times). On Friday night, Julie and I saw Rachel and Michael off to formal, then went to Sonic to chill out. We went for a run, then I started feeling bad and went home to curl up for a little bit. Saturday, I got up and went and got in bed with Rachel. We stayed there talking until about 11:30, then we got cleaned up and went Bible shopping. I have a purse Bible now. We picked up Paul and went to Greenville to go to Artisphere, but we stopped by my house on the way there. Julie met us at my house and took Rachel with her, then Paul and I headed downtown. There was lots of art and really cool stuff. I touched something worth $12,000. That was absurd. It was some sculpture thing. I got some really fun earrings while I was there. I love the artsy earrings. I showed him the bridge and the park, then we ran into my parents before heading to Fuddruckers for dinner with Olivia and her mom and sister. We then...

Time out for me to complain about the awful French teacher who is so rude to me. She is so uncool.

Another time out for me to go to class.

And I continue typing three days later. It's Thursday now.

After dinner with Olivia and her mom and sister, Paul and I drove back to Clemson and played smash brothers until like the middle of the night. This is the point at which I will interject that I kicked his butt like 12 times or something like that.

Sunday was church and the potluck, then I came home and don't really remember what I did. Oh. I went to a play with Paul. It was about women in the Vietnam war and their experiences, both during and after the war. It was rather heart-wrenching. I teared up a few times. After that, we killed a bit of time until Olivia got there and it was time to make shrimp with cream dill sauce and rice. It was every bit as good as it sounds.

On Monday, as I wrote earlier, I had to deal with mean and grumpy teachers who don't know how to deal with things in an expedient manner. Monday night was CSF. Fun stuff.

Tuesday was class and work, then a meeting with the officers to plan events for the upcoming year. It's going to be busy if we do everything we plan on doing. Tuesday afternoon I studied for Rack's test, then I went down and pestered the boys of number 8. Hung out for a while, ate some lasagna, and watched Toy Story. Oh, and mad props on the back rubs.

Wednesday was boring. Had a test in Rack's class. Ick to that. Then lab presentations. I think we did well with our adopted group member. Then I went to Sams with Wes and Alex. After that, I went to the gym with Ju-bear. Came home and studied for a very long time. Fell asleep studying. Tried to wake back up. Gave up on that and went back to bed.

Today was a fairly useless day. We had our final in Brosnan's class. That was the last productive thing for a while. Dr. Brown gave us our final and sent us home. Then I got a chicken biscuit. Dr. Skaar told us the final would be take-home and sent us home. Shag, we did an evaluation then he sent us home. I went to Sonic with Julie, then we went to Target where I found some very very cute shoes for very cheap. Then I came back and went to the CME end of year cookout. Rain or shine we were having that cookout. Here, have some pictures.
Armen was SUPER-grilling!Such a sexy face. Not to mention how short I look in this photo.Look! People came to the shendig!

I came home, worked on my final for Dr. Brown for a while, then went downstairs. Watched the Office, went to Bloom with Olivia and Julie (there are too many julies in my life...), then went back and half helped with lemon squares until Baldo and I went to get Paul. I worked on my test some and we watched Casino Royale.

It is WAY past my bedtime. Good night world!
