Till christmas! Haha. I'll probably end up with jury duty. But that's kinda like a present in itself, I've always wanted to be on the jury! I got a notice in the mail that wanted me sometime this month, which is ridiculous, I probably have a midterm then! But yeah, so they accepted my request for it to be moved to the latter half of december, so that'll be nice, especially if I stay here this summer to keep up on classes.
Last night was eventful; I was hanging out at the Buxton desk with Amy, the RA on duty. We were just doing RA stuff and hanging with a few of her friends. Ryan came down, since he was running for hall council president. Then we got into a little sparring match, and I managed to take a stupid shot with a kick and he crunched my ankle right on the top of it above my instep. So it's swollen and hurting, but it'll be better soon. About then, we start hearing people screaming in the elevator. It turns out that some REALLY BRIGHT people had decided to jump at the same time inside the elevator containing 15 people. So it shut down, you know, keeping them from plunging to their death. So it took about 45 minutes of calming histerics and Amy running things like a pro to get the RMF guy here to fix it and let them all out. Just as I was calling the RD on duty to let HER know that everything was OK, THE FIRE ALARM STARTED GOING OFF.
So we get everyone out of the building. 3/4 of the RA staff is outside, 3 fire trucks, all the state troopers on their bikes... everyone was there. Because someone had hit a sprinkler with a lacrosse ball. YAY.
So then I was too energized, it was 0030 before I finally fell asleep. Didn't go to PT because of my ankle. So now I'm here.
I'm having a good time here at school thus far. Had my first midterm an hour or so ago. It went quite well minus the spelling errors of the questions and one question that was doubled up on. But there were only a few that were confusing, or I couldn't remember, so yay, another easy A coming up.
That leaves me time to work on my short story for my writing class. This is what is really the most exciting for me. I wasn't happy at first because my professor had us purchase a cassette tape to go along with our assignments. I was not terribly excited about trying to find a cassette player within my comfortable reach. Fortunately with a little TLC, the cassette player part of my boombox still works, although I did have a scare there for a while where it swallowed part of my tape. My professor records his thoughts about our assignments directly onto the tape, so that I can get all the inflections and potential thoughts he had about my project. So it's really nifty, and I just remembered that I have an awesome headphone-out - to - microphone in cable so I can rip the sound from the tape to an mp3. YAY.
Ok, back to work for me!
