Finals Time!

It is finals time again at Colorado State Univeristy...and i am so excited that once this week is over, I only have to do it three more times for the rest of my life! Anywho, I have two finals tomorrow, Historical Speeches on American Issues at 7 AM...and Interpersonal Communication at 11:20 am! After that i have to go wait in line at the DMV to get a new license (I know, im gonna be there a while) Then i have my first Girl Scout meeting as this year's "Cookie Mom" tomorrow night. Wed. i have two more finals, Math in the Social Sciences (basic counting) and then Rhetoric and Argumentation (the most painful class i have ever taken, but also the most rewarding). Thurs. i work all freaking day open to close, but it'll be ok...then my last final on Friday at 7am! This is going to be a painful week, but that means Christmas break will be all the more appreciated. I can't wait to be home for the Holidays!

This is the bed of a girl who is about to take a 7 am final on Historical Speeches! Heating Pad and all! I cannot function without this dang heating pad. Melissa got it for me for my B-day, b/c im always cold and it has become my crack cocaine !

Me in my "studying sweater"... I'm really painting a pathetic picture for all of you. It's really not that bad. In fact I will leave you with, in my educated opinion, one of the greatest lines in American Rhetorical discourse From Abraham Lincoln's 1st Inaugural Speech, he pleads for any action besides civil war...

"We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battle-field and patriot grave to every living heart and hearthstone all over this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the Union when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature."

His rhetoric didnt work, we had the civil war, but it sounded pretty anyway!
