The "F" word

FINALS!!!! They're over!!!!!! whoop whooop!
I've started referring to myself (in my mind) as a junior so I can get used to it and I won't be shocked when I come back next year and people use it on me...
Yesterday was my Spanish final. I have never studied so hard in my life. It was to the point, in the end, I couldn't even look at my notes. I couldn't bring myself to do it. My professor pulled me over the last class before the final and said I had to kick it into high gear. Boy, did I.
I think I did well. It was still a hard test and there was a TON of material I had to review, but I was definitely very well prepared. The whole thing went well despite the tummy grumbling noises of Angela and myself (we were both uber nervous and had consumed copious volumes of coffee), cheating girls in my class (ahem... We know who you are!!), and cell phone ringing.
I'm so glad to be done with classes. I was up till 6 am this morning and 5 yesterday morning... I'm looking forward to just sleeping in.
I feel like I should be working on something right now, but I have nothing to do.
(Expect watch HP 6, finish the 4th Twilight, and maneater!!!) (and the second season of Gossip Girl...
Omg, what am I going to do with myself over this loooong break of mine?
p.s. today is also the day Catie gave me the list of things to do in Spain.

Thanksgiving Break and Being a Chicken

So Thanksgiving Break was not that long ago, but I can still remember how horrible I felt. I was worried about my Spanish grade. We have to have a B average to be allowed to go to Spain. Luckily, after avoiding the topic all break and feeling a knot in my stomach the topic crossed my mind, we got our grades up to that point on this Tuesday. I was very happy to see I had a perfectly fine grade. I've not done well on any of our tests but on every other assignment and worksheet I've done great. It must have been just enough to get me the grade I needed. I thought I was going to be the first girl in SMC history to have to stay back because her grades were too low. I'm Free!! <3

Also, it'll be exactly days 60 till I'm in Spain! I also just realized I have to start saying goodbye to my friends... :(
