Finally I have a minute to blog. I have been so extremely busy since the last time I blogged. I don't really know where to begin really.
School has been going well. I got an A on that speech that I was talking about and a B on that Micro test. I just got my paper for History of Ancient Greece, with the help of the my friend Jesse, (60% of my grade) and got an A on it! Don't have to rewrite it, thank goodness. I'm currently working on a few papers as well as one last speech. Finals are in about 3 weeks. I have already signed up for my classes for next semester. I'm taking Physics II (and it's lab), Evolution (for my Biology major, not by choice!), Ancient Religions with the magnificent Dr. Burgess, and Eastern Religions. I am just about finished with my minor, and I am a few classes from finishing my major. Next semester will be the least amount of hours that I've ever taken, and I'm so excited about it!
Extracurriculars. Fun, fun! Well, first, I would like to say that Ryan and I had a good start to the 6:30 AM workout routine (until I got sick again). We hope to continue this when my health problems get back to normal. Also, I participated in the intramural volleyball team for Phi Sigma Pi and had a blast! I didn't get to play in the last two games because of the ER visit, but I still had fun through the first part of the season. Speaking of Phi Sigma Pi, well...I have had my ups and downs with the fraternity. One thing that I have loved is getting closer to two particular brothers, Sara and Courtney. We have had so much fun shopping, eating, working out, hanging out, playing Apples to Apples, watching Grey's, fighting with the rest of the brothers, etc. Induction of the Alpha class is next Monday. I am proud to say that Ryan and my little brother, Mary, will be inducted on that day! I'm so excited for them!!!!! You guys know how proud I am of Ryan, but I would like to speak about my little first. Mary has been awesome. She made above a perfect score (she got the bonus question right too) on the National Exam. She helped our team win in the Big/Little Bonding events. Mary has just been awesome and I'm so happy for her. Ryan is the president of Alpha class and has been great at it. I've seen leadership qualities that I haven't seen before in him. He is very well liked among the brothers and he has attended all meetings since he was pinned as a initiate. I'm very proud of him as well.
Lastly, my health. I have had a couple of ER visits since the last post. You can read the details on my mom's blog. They have been kinda scary, but I have been in good hands during both times. I would like to especially thank Ryan, Elizabeth, and Courtney for helping me out last Sunday morning at Starbucks. I have a couple of diagnostic tests next week to maybe help figure out what's going on. Hopefully something is found out soon. I just started work again after a month, until last Sunday.
I am just happy to be home. Ryan brought me home yesterday. I had just been in bed ever since Sunday morning, with the exception of one lab and two fraternity meetings, so Mom wanted me to just go ahead and come home, which I was very glad to do. I slept most of the way home, as usual. Today, I've been out a couple of times with Mom and have been working on a couple of school projects due next week. Christie comes in at 7 tonight. I can't wait to see her. We have so much to catch up on.
Well, that's it for now. I'm sure I'll have another time to blog, but ya never know with me. ;)
Happy Thanksgiving!!!
