The Countdown is On!

Counting today, there are exactly 7 days until my spring break. I can't wait! Hell week has officially started. I have a rough draft, a big paper and a really hard midterm all on Monday, then I will be pulling an all nighter Monday night to study for my midterm that is Tuesday afternoon. It will all be over Wednesday at 3 though, then I can offically enjoy having some time off from school. I can't believe how fast it has gone!
I've come to the conclusion that geese do not go south for the winter, they come west. There are geese everywhere! And if that wasn't enough, there is nasty goose poop covering yards and sidewalks. I don't mean a little here and there, I mean EVERYWHERE! Yesterday when I was walking to class I had to cross the street because there were about 10 geese on the sidewalk in front of me. It was right in front of the Pi Kapp house and while I'm sure it would have been a good story for them to tell at their meeting, I did not want to be known as the "girl who got attacked by geese on the sidewalk". I'm sure it would not have been talked about as long as "those girls who played strip pool" however so that did give me some comfort. :)
I think the living situation for next year has been pretty close to finalized. The plan is for Jenny, Cristina and myself to live together. I'm really excited because I think the dynamics will be great! Not only that, but we've all unofficially agreed that we'd like to live in a house instead of an apartment so I can't wait for that! I think it will seem like a castle compared the tiny place we live now.
Saturday is date # 3 with Bill. I refused to call the first two dates, insisting we were just friends, but Saturday we are doing dinner and a movie and I don't think I can live in denial anymore. I enjoy spending time with him and we never run out of things to talk about which also means no awkward moments so that is good. I'll keep you updated!
I leave to go home in just over a week! I'm really excited because it has been a REALLY long time. This is the longest I've ever gone (9 weeks) without a visit. Luckily I still talk to my mommy almost everyday on the phone!! I am sad that my Jill has to work most of the weekend but I think we are going to try to go all out on Friday night so that should be a good time. Then after my great trip home I get to come back and see a couple of great friends here which I am superexcited about! I think I may even get to go skiing with them on Friday which would be fantastic. I wish I didn't have to baby-sit the rest of the weekend and miss out on Halleh time, but hopefully she and Jenny will be able to come visit me some.
Well the time has come for me to get ready and go be a nanny. Hopefully it isn't too stressful today. Sometimes Chase gets a little cranky and then we butt heads. Until next time folks!
