blllleeeeck FINALS

There is an eerie calm on campus the weekend before finals. Everyone has work to do, but with the weather being as sunny and amazing as it is, there's a good chance they're not doing. I, for instance, am avoiding/taking a break from writing my final paper for my media criticism class. Considering I've had to do similar essays on tests where I was only allowed 2 hours to complete the whole thing, this seems to be taking me a lot longer. Go figure. This is obviously the calm before the storm.
My finals week shouldn't be too bad. I only have one test and two papers due, but it's really the principle of the thing. Very rarely do I actually feel motivated enough to get things done early without any other reason than to get it out of the way. So my goal is to try and get a solid draft of this one paper done today, so I can look at it again before I turn it in on Tuesday. Obviously my blogging is a sign that it's not getting done as quickly as I had planned.
But I'm very excited to be home, considering I haven't been there since before Christmas. It feels like a very long time to not see your parents as it turns out. And I'm also very excited about the fact that I don't have to pack up all my stuff and move it to storage. I get to leave it here and move back in without any boxes or anything. Just the things I need for the summer. Needless to say it will really be a much easier packing situation than it has been in the past. This whole idea makes me look forward to a time when I don't have to move around every 5-6 months and have a legitimate place to call my own.
Other than that, not too much going on here, just preparing for my finals, a.k.a. avoiding them as much as possible while still staying on it enough to make sure i don't fail, and hanging out with my friends as much as possible before I have to say goodbye for the summer.

PS

Parents, I thought you'd like this picture Giselle took of me while I was in Spokane. She's taking digital photography and I thought this one turned out pretty nice.
