Halfway there

Well, I done did it.  I am officially halfway done with college and halfway to attaining two Bachelor of Arts degrees.  Pretty crazy, eh?  Finals week this year was pretty hellish, but at least it’s over.  Lauren, Kat, and I are all having trouble believing how quickly this year went by.  It seems like Lauren and I were in our apartment just last month, not almost a year ago.  The first semester didn’t go by too terribly quickly, but this second semester was just a whirlwind.  It’s pretty crazy.  I’m glad it’s over.

Some highlights of this school year?  Well, I absolutely loved the casts for the two French plays.  We all were quite close, and some of us the second semester cast created “The Derp Troupe,” which was just a fancy way of saying that we met up every Sunday in the north BNB lounge to watch a movie.  Other highlights?  Umm . . . I can’t really think of many.  I became a peer tutor for French last Fall.  My first semester was for Elementary French I and then this past semester was the complete opposite end of the spectrum for Intermediate French II.  That was pretty cool, but also pretty difficult.  It can also be frustrating at times, but all work is like that.

At the moment I am sitting in the basement, just chillin’ out.  I haven’t really started unpacking.  I’m only going to be here for a month and a week until I fly up to Michigan to spend two weeks with family, and then two days after that we’re driving to Québec.  Since I’m only available for the first part of the summer, that kind of prevents me from getting any sort of job.  Which stinks.  But hey, what can I do?  I also applied to be a volunteer on the Prep Crew, which means I would be helping to prepare the residence halls for incoming freshmen and other students.  I would man the hall desks during Truman Week, prepare orientation packets, move in microfridges, etc.  If I get accepted for that, then I’d move into the dorm about two days after I get back from Québec, which is fine with me.  The less downtime, the better.

I think that’s it.  I’m tired.  I might nap.  Or I might unpack.  I have no idea.
