4 More Weeks...Please Fly By

I have a month left of school. 3 big papers, all of them in the double digits. Should I mention I have a speech as well? Why must these weeks be so cruel to me? I'm almost halfway done with college, and I just want these weeks to fly by smoothly.

Despite my busy workload, I had some fun. I got some free coupon from Nicola's (my favorite local pizza place) a while ago from Admissions for showing my room to prospective visitors. I used one of those and ordered in pizza, which is a nice change from eating at the Common's. After doing some homework, I went to an Easter egg hunt where I met up with a friend and her roommate and friend from her dorm. We colored Easter-themed pictures, participated in an egg hunt and an egg toss. I also won a chocolate peanut butter Easter bunny at the door, and one of the hall directors (Residence Life sponsored this event as part of a program called "Pilots After Dark") gave me a bowl of jellybeans, as she didn't want to toss them.

Thursday afternoon begins a 4 day break for Easter. While it would be nice to get off campus (more specifically, sunny Palm Springs, which is where my family will be), I am relieved that I will be staying on campus. This will give me plenty of time to get my homework done without the distraction of people and sun. Luckily, many people I know, including two of my neighbors, stay on campus during this short break, so I won't be too lonely. At least I'll come home in May and can give my family (and friends) my full attention without worrying about the demands of school.

I can't believe I'll be halfway done. Never thought I'd make it this far...
