Finals Week

Well, it's your typical finals week around here so far. everyone has been busy studying and getting ready for their finals. i took a few days to rest my brain starting friday and through the weekend. i got mostly all of my christmas shopping done and got some good time with people this weekend, so that was good. on friday street and i went down to staunton to go to the mall and then we went to the baja bean, which is a really good california style mexican place, for dinner. a couple of our guys friends from the toolbox met up with us so that was fun. it was good to get out of harrisonburg for a little while, even though staunton is not far at all. on saturday i went out with street and sarah for lunch and then braved the roads for some christmas shopping, which i did almost all of at one place which was awesome. on saturday night we went to the theater on campus and saw "across the universe" which is a musical with all beatles songs. i really enjoyed it. yesterday morning i went with daniel morgan to the church that he has been going to, called valley church. i thought it was ok, it is your normal non-denominational kind of place i guess. i enjoyed what the pastor had to say, and it was refreshing being somewhere new. then last night we had the young life christmas party with the committee and all the leaders. it was really fun, as always.

I started studying this morning and spent a good amount of time preparing for the two finals that i have tomorrow. one of them is GSCI (science) and we can bring a sheet of paper with anything on it we want. so i spent some time this afternoon giong through all of the chapters and writing down pretty much every formula haha. my other final is in media and politics, which will be challenging. i have been skimming through the chapters and readings and need to go over all my class notes. overall i'm not stressed or worried at all... i think i got all of that out of my system last week and the week before. i have a final on wednesday, and then we're having a christmas party for club since we couldn't have it last week. so i'll be home on thursday!
