Triple Chocolate Meltdown

Good evening readers! It is a good day. I woke up at 7:41 am and that part wasn't too good, but then I napped until about 9. That was good. Then I got up and read for my politics class and it was slightly interesting. I hope we start debating in that class becuase I like to debate. After some lunch I went to BIBLE PREPARATION 404 according to Ashley and that was okay. I don't know how much I got out of it in 30 minutes. I guess I'll have to spend more time in it by myself. It's a good jumping off point though.

Last night was my first small group and there was one person that came. I can't even really count that since it was Ryan's friend and not a freshman. Maybe next week we'll get more since yesterday was Labor Day and a lot of people went home. I look forward to the guys that God is going to bring to small group, just like He brought me to Jason and Doug's last year. After Bible class I went off to Spanish Lit. That class is so freaking hard. Next class I have an outline due for an essay and a presentation on Cotes' letters. I just need to find time to sit down and work. I think the library is going to become my best friend soon, I can't really work here, I get too distracted. I thought that class was going to be about novels and other good things, but instead we're reading poetry written by Natives right after Cortes got there. It's so hard! I don't understand any of it.

After that extremely hard class I go onto math, which is a joke all in itself. I sit there extremely bored. Oh well. I signed up for the class for an easy A so we'll see if it'll still be that easy later on down the road. I hope so becuase with the other classes I'm taking I need a nice easy one.

After my math class I headed on over to International Politics and that was fun. I think it's going to be really interesting learning about the politics of the world. Sometimes I wonder if I should pick up a minor of International something. Considering I'm a Spanish major and plan to travel a lot. I guess that's something to look into.

After class I went out to dinner with Doug and we had some really great conversations and one that I never thought about was how obsessed I've been with getting a job. Everywhere I turn I say I need a job. Why do I need a job? So I can spend money. Maybe the thing I need to learn to do is to not spend money. I think I should cancel all my credit cards and live off what money I have in my bank accounts. That way I'm limited to what I can spend, whereas if I have credit cards I know that I can spend money and pay it back later. It's not a good thing.

I talked to my friend Stacy today and I'm pretty sure that I'm going to go visit her in November. It only costs $158 to fly out of Richmond. I know that I just wrote that I shouldn't spend money, but it's vital that I go and see her. I would love to head on down to Florida. It'll be a great quick break.

Tomorrow is my cousin's birthday. I'm sad that I can't be there to celebrate it with her. Oh well, I'll give her a cute call at midnight and scream Happy Birthday to her. She's precious.

Tomorrow I'm working on my Spanish presentation from 10 until we finish it. I'm kind of nervous about it since it's for a class that I have no idea what is ever going on, but maybe this will be my turning point to understanding! Then after that I have my 3 hour Spanish Civ class. That too is killer. I have to start prepping for two essays, one for both classes. It's going to stretch my Spanish skills in so many ways.

After that is CRASH. I'm looking forward to being able to sit there and watch tomorrow. I don't have to speak which is nice. Dani was saying that she wants Katie and I to sing sometime. I think it would be a lot of fun to sing with Jason playing the guitar or singing with us. Guess we'll have to see how that turns out!

Well that's all I've got for now.

PEACE
