Reading the Bible and then discussing it has been quite interesting. I've enjoyed it a lot, and my group has really grown during the past three or four sessions. I'm not going to go in much detail though because I could say a number of things that we've talked about and learned and done and I don't really know where to start. So I will just say that I still love where I am and what I am doing. :)
This past week was basically Harry Potter week. Haha! Last Friday and Saturday, I watched all six HP movies with my friends and last night we went to the midnight showing of the new movie. :) Around seven last night, two of my friends and I decided that we were going to dress up for the movie. Not dress up like characters or anything, but dress up nice and fancy. And then they decided to play with my hair and makeup. Let's just say I've never gone to a movie theater looking that nice. ;) We got to the theater around 9:30ish and the line was wrapped allllll the way around the building. We waited in line til around 11 and then it started moving. There were thirteen in our group and we didn't think we would be able to all sit together, but the whole front row was empty and we decided the seats weren't that close to the screen so we got to sit all together which was nice. And the movie ended up being really good! I was very impressed and happy with it. :) Even though I went to bed at 3 and only got four hours of sleep because I have an 8:30 class. It was okay though, because I came back to my room, talked to Cat on the phone for a bit, and went back to bed at 10. I slept til 1. It was quite lovely.
I had my last intramural volleyball game this past Wednesday! It was a lot of fun, and we were so close to winning! If we had won, we would have played in the championship match (of the C league, but still ;) ). We lost 25-23, 11-25, 13-15. And the team we played had already beaten us two other times. So we definitely improved as a team lol. It was still a lot of fun, and I'm definitely glad I decided to play!
Thanksgiving is almost here! Which means Christmas is almost here! Which means I get to go home soon! 26 days to be exact. Yes, I am looking forward to it.
But before that happens I have a lot going on. I'm spending Thanksgiving with my friend Havilah, who lives about an hour away. My roommie is coming too. We are leaving Tuesday evening (because we don't get the whole week off) and coming back Sunday. Not sure exactly what all we're going to be doing. I do know that we will be going Black Friday shopping, which is something I don't think I've done before, so that should be fun! School-wise, my next few weeks are going to be crazy! This is what they look like:
Monday - Spanish project due
Tuesday - Leviticus and Deuteronomy reading and notes due
Thanksgiving break
Monday - 4-5 page essay due for Brit. Lit. (that I haven't really started yet)
Tuesday - Joshua reading and notes due
Thursday - Hebrews reading and notes due
Friday - 2nd draft of 7-10 page Torrey paper that is worth 30% of my final grade and I still haven't gotten it back yet to know what I need to change is due
Monday - Pull Questions due (PQs are questions that we get at the end of each Torrey session. You have to answer one per book, 300-600 words. My Exodus, Numbers, Leviticus/Deuteronomy, Joshua, and Hebrews PQs will be due. As of now, I have not done any of them, but I only have Exodus and Numbers because we haven't had the other sessions yet.)
Friday - Finals start. I might do my Torrey final on this day. I get to sign up for it, but I haven't decided if I want to do it this day or the next Monday or Tuesday.
Monday - Brit. Lit. Final
Tuesday - Piano juries (and my piano minor auditions). I just have to play three songs memorized. It shouldn't be that hard, just depends on how nervous I get.
Wednesday - Spanish Final. Fly home!!
So that is my busy schedule for the next few weeks. And now I am going to go to bed early (yes, I know, on a Friday night too) and get up around 8 to try and finish reading Leviticus before my piano lesson. Good night. :)
"Well, I'm going home, back to the place where I belong."
- Home, Daughtry
