Finals Ho!

Arg, ye mateys. I be seeing rough winds ahead. Finals sighted.

That's right, this time next week I'll be completely through finals and finished with my first year of college. Aren't you all so happy to have experienced this with me? Oh, come on, I know you love these emails. You just delete them to save space in your inbox. The fact that you don't read them first is just because you're so busy. I'm going to keep telling myself that, really, I am...

Anyway! Yes, finals. Which means that I'm studying hard, yet still seem to not be studying enough. I made a resolution when I was still play games last night at 11 that I would stop playing games till 11, at least until finals were over. Yeah, we'll see how that goes. But yes, I do have some nasty finals ahead. I'm taking three this semester, four if you count the online one I'm taking this weekend. Overall, these finals should prove interesting. I really need to pull A's in all of 'em, but I've told myself that it's okay to get a B in the classes. I'm going to be happy with a B. You know why? Because I realized that I haven't gotten anything above a B as a final grade in a math class since I was a sophomore. In high school. And all of my finals this semester are in math based classes (minus Chem, but I'm trying to throw it in that category so I'll feel better). Overall, what I'm trying to say is wish me luck. Seriously. And I'm sorry if I don't reply to anyone this week, but I hope you understand.

As far as what the gang and I have done this week, we did a lot. We went putt-putting last Wednesday night instead of skating, and I think it was actually better then skating. I'll send out pictures later.

Um, last Friday we went to a trash fashion show, where all the fashions were made from recycled material. There were some interesting pieces and I think the girls got some ideas. The most entertaining thing of that night was that Bria and I dressed up for the event. I even wore a skirt! And a nice top! And heeled shoes! It was amazing. They took photos so that in the future they can prove I dressed like a chick at least once in my life. And no, you won't be seeing them. Whahaha.

Saturday we did something... and same on Sunday. I just can't remember it. Haha. I'm so tired.. I actually overslept this morning and the girl that works the shift before me had to call me and wake me up. The good news is that it's the first time it's happened this semester and that I only have 1 more week of these shifts left. Next semester I'm still working desk, but I'm working it during the lunch shifts between my classes.

Oh! HUGE shout out to Fish, Bria, and Christie, who have helped me so much this week! The publications database that I've been working on went horribly wrong, so I'm stuck hand entering 1048 entries by hand. Fish and Bria have so kindly donated over 5 hours of time to helping me upload the information and Christie has given me a good hour. I still have about 8 hours of work ahead of me, but they have been no end of help. Doesn't it just rock having friends that love ya? That and are easily bought by Chinese Take-Out... hehe.

Which in a weird way reminds me of this summer. As many of you should know, I'm going to UNC this summer for an internship. Considering it's going to be such an interesting time (oh, I'm so sure), I might just continue these little emails over the summer. I can't promise they will be as exciting as these emails, but I'll be sure to throw in something interesting. So, if you're interested in receiving the summer addition, please reply to this email and let me know. Also, I think I'm going to start a blog for these emails, so that over the summer and next semester, I will be sending out the emails and posting them in the blog. I'm going to continue emailing to those of you who are like me and rarely get anything but junk, and the blog is for those of you who don't read these emails till you've got three in your inbox. If you would like to be removed from the email list and added to the blog update, let me know and I'll change ya over. I'll probably start the blogging next week.

Recap:
- I won't be replying this week, I've got to study.
- If you would like to receive the summer edition, please email me.
- If you would like to be removed from the email list and added to the blog notice, please email me. (If you don't understand half that sentence, you don't want to be put on the blog list.)
- And as always, if you would like to be removed completely from this subscription (I'm a newspaper now), please reply to this email with "BUG OFF!" as the subject.

All in all, just remember: 150 people are born every minute and that the world population will have double by 2200. That and alpha particles are 2+ Heliums.

Love, Peace, and Why Can't I Remember What Injective Functions Are?!
