Back from the Apathetic
I really wasn't dead. I could have posted, I just didn't feel like doing anything the last week or so. I am happy to say, however, that I am feeling like posting today. I think I'm going to go back to the 5th grade, and make a high/low list for the last week. I'll alternate so that there isn't a high concentration of depressing or happy news all at once:+ Picnic for MPIRG: We had a great time with meat and veggie burgers alike. In sum, a splendid time had by all
- I started preparing too early for my final tests. I thought, "Hey! I'll get a head start on this whole studying thing. It'll make it easier on me later, right?" I should have procrastinated. Now I'm really prepared, and I have to wait until next week to take the freaking tests. I want to come home, and I want to come home now, but I can't because I have to wait to take the tests I could easily take today and pass them with high enough scores to keep up my current GPA. There's a reason I procrastinate, and apparently this is it.
+I bought an issue of GQ. Now, before you go all psycho on me, I had a good reason. A six page article? I'm a mere mortal. Forgive me.
-Packing. I hate it. I wish I had magical powers so I could just zap my stuff home with a filick of a finger. Damn, why didn't I get that letter from Hogwarts?
+Thank a thons at work. I get to call people, thank them for giving money, and I don't have to ask them for anything at all. The people I call are very pleased to talk to me, and I don't waste time calling answering machines only to hang up. Yep, I get to leave a message. The best part about the thank a thon: I have to call a three page list, and when I'm done, I get to leave. No calling the same answering machines three times. Yes!
-Financial aid changes. Good thing: I got a subsidized federal loan, meaning I won't have to pay interest. Bad thing: My work study got cut, and my Hamline Grant decreased. That means more money I have to come up with. I will work it out, but it still sucks.
+Warm weather. Warm weather is a real plus because at least I can study outside. That means I can stare into space instead of reviewing the global economy for the ump-teenth time.
That's about it in a nutshell. I'm coming home in exactly a week, almost to the minute. This makes me extremely happy. This is my level of excitement: <---------------------------->
The end.

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *tackle*
I'm excited to have you back for the summer.
I say you make friends with a wizard for the weekend and then steal his magic hat and make a bunch of brooms do all of your packing for you, like in Fantasia, sort of. Or I suppose you could steal Frosty the snow man's hat, too, because that would ALSO be magic, but you might have trouble finding him south of the Yukon this season.
GQ, hehe, you're such a doll.
Yay! Rianna is coming back! *joins Sara in tackling*
Hogwarts must have missed you when they compiled their list of students.
Financial aid. Meh. Still need to apply for that one loan.
