Relaxed - Finally!

Hello everyone! So, I'm not going to lie to you guys but last week was probably THE most stressful weeks on campus for me, ever. I know, I know . . . I tend to say that my life is stressful. But hey, I always say it's worth it right? Right. And this week, it is definately paying off. While all of my friends are busy studing for midterms and finishing up their research papers, I on the other hand, did all that last week. Now, I'm not saying that this week is a walk in the park. Because, with all my time freed up from my school work I have ample amount of time to dedicate to Relay for Life. We finally got a date and this year's Relay for Life will be on March 19th. And when you factor in our midterm break next week, is not that much time to plan. So this week I have meetings, meetings, meetings. Speaking of Relay, yesterday we had another fundraiser. Now, usually clubs set up a pasta dinner where you can donate money from your meal card. However, we decided that since pasta is an everyday kinda thing here, we'd mix it up and have a Mac-n-Cheese dinner. It was really successful! Last I knew, students gave $1855 dollars off of their cards. No, that's not joke, that number just seems to be everywhere on this campus. But hey, that's really good! We're on our way to our goal of $30,000.
Okay, okay so enough about Relay . . . for now. Last night I also had a meeting for my Term III trip abroad to Ireland. We watched a movie about the Irish war for independence and Civil War. It was really interesting and all, but all the meeting did was want me to skip over this term and leave for Ireland already! (68 days, but hey - who's counting?!) It seems far away, but looking where we started our countdown it's coming faster than we think. Especailly since time seems to fly by on this campus. I swear, sometimes it feels like time is on double time when I'm here. Which, can be a good or bad thing the way you look at it.
So, that's about it. I'll end by saying what I usually say - I can't wait for break!
