Banksies.

So the highlight of my semester was probably selling all my textbooks back yesterday.

I pretty much made bank, except I only got $93 for my brand new biology book that cost me $150. Oh well. I got $155. Not bad.

Now I have money so I can start Christmas shopping!

I am the definition of a "poor college kid." I should get a job.

Dead Week?

So the week before finals is officially known as dead week. (That's this week, by the way)

It's basically a week from hell.

I have a poli sci quiz tomorrow, bio lab practical Wednesday, and a 10 page "group paper" due Thursday, and a biology portfolio due sometime soon, probably Friday. Not to mention a 15 page final paper for my honors seminar, poli sci final, and a french final next week which I should probably study for. Ugh.

Thankfully, there are all sorts of movie nights/pancake feeds/cookie decorating/things to keep us all from going crazy.

Oh, and broomball playoffs start tonight!

Also, there are 24-7 quiet hours in the dorms which started last night at 7 and last until the end of finals (next Friday). Ok, NOBODY studies 24 hours a day, not even in the honors dorms. It's a bit ridiculous.

Anyways, so last night at 6, we celebrated "Pre-Dead Week Ruckus." Basically, we ran around yelling and turned up our music really loud before we were forced into two weeks of silence. It was quite enjoyable.

I have a feeling I'm going to want to run around yelling from frustration as finals get closer, but I guess last night was the only chance I'm gonna get for awhile...I guess I could go outside, but it's cold.

Tip of the Day: Get LED Christmas lights. They make your room look awesome and are eco-friendly too!!

Is it Friday yet?

You know how when something important is coming up, the days....just....drag....on...sooo....sloowwwlyyyy...

This has been the longest week ever, and it's only Monday. It's a bit depressing, actually. I don't know if I can make it two more weeks until Thanksgiving break...and then two more weeks until finals....and then Christmas break!

It will be amazing.

And I'm having a really hard time realizing that it's November already and that there really are only two weeks left until break, mainly because it's 60 degrees outside. What the heck, Nebraska???

Not that I'm complaining. It's beautiful out =)

Highlight of the Week: Huskers>Sooners. Enough said.
