Happy Halloween, wooo. I woke up and my throat felt much better. I showered and had breakfast. I did a lot of reading today. A lot. I read about 90 pages all day, and it's a slow read. Around lunch time Nick and I went to see his mom for lunchy. I got a nice trukey sandwich and it was really yummy. And it was the most I had eaten in a long time. After a long chat we drove back home to do more homework then. I studied for 144 and did my reading. Eventually Nick went out, but I just hung around and watched tv and then moved on to the baseball game. Boring night, but what could I do? The college kids were pretty loud again, but the car was safe from flying pumpkins crashing into windshields tonight. 11:27PM

I woke up, my tonsils and throat felt a little better, but they're still bloody and full of pus and mucus. But no fever! Having no fever makes you feel much better, but I think I'd rather be able to swallow over a fever any day. I showered and hoped I'd be able to go to a single class today in the afternoon. My fever's been gone for 24 hours, so maybe. Nick came home from work and he drove me up to campus. I wasn't going to walk just yet. I got through class fine and now it was time to walk down the hill. It's easier to walk down then up. I got home fine, better than I thought I would and then just relaxed for the rest of the day. Nick got water for me at Costco since I've been going through a ton of it, it's only $5 for like a case of them. Sadly I'm missing my last Halloween weekend in college. I feel like I always get sick on my birthday or some kind of fun holiday. It sucks, but I really can't go out like this, let alone drink. So I'm in for the weekend and watching people walk by in their costumes. It's raining now, so people will be getting soaked. I do think this is one of the warmest halloween's we've actually had. It's in the low 50's, I'm pretty sure I've been out freezing to death in past years. I no longer have to sleep on my back down since I'm not drooling and being nearly as mucus-y as I was. I'm hoping for an even better nights sleep now. 10:15PM

My fever was noticeably down today and not there at all really, but my throat was excruciatingly painful. I wanted to back to the clinic, but mom convinced me it would be pointless. I was hungry and forced myself to eat half a can of tuna. It hurt so bad, at least I got some down. Just after noon, a tiny tiny jump in my temperature occurred, but I brought it back down. I watched a movie, Fred Claus, on demand, and then watched other tv. Nick finally came home around 4:30. I did a little reading since I was feeling better of my Japan At War book and then later I was hungry agian. My throat felt a smidge bit better, maybe I could get some food down. Nick made burgers and I had 1.5 tiny tiny patties with cheese, but no bun. I figured the bun would fill me too quickly and I wanted something substantial. It was yummy. I'd barely eaten much in the past few days, but half a bowl of soup and crackers, and then some tuna. So this was good. Last night I slept on my back with my mouth open, and I feel like that hurt my tonsils and kinda dried them out, so I did the same but kept my mouth shut. We'll see what happens. 10:09PM

I had a horrible time trying to sleep through the night. I woke up in the morning, and kinda felt ok, so I got up at regular time but then it hit me quickly. I felt awful. No chance of class today. I felt sick so I laid down on the floor in the kitchen and just waited around there for a few hours. Nick got ready and went to class. He turned in my homework for me. I had taken some motrin and when it finally kicked in I took a shower and cleaned up a little, but then took another nap. Nick came home and he drove me up to visit the special flu clinic they had set up on campus. I checked in, got a little temperature reading, and then finally they saw me. I got tested for strep throat since my throat is majorly swollen and ugly, but it's not strep. I guess it's just strep. I get to just suffer for a few days. I came home and napped for the rest of the afternoon and fought a fever. It got as high as 101.8 at it's most. I tried to eat some soup, but it hurt too much. 10:04PM

I went to 146 today and took many notes. I then went upstairs to do some homework for 144. I completed it, yay! I then went to Tax and wrote down even more notes. I walked home and my throat was bothering me, I hope I'm not coming down with a cold. I did some homework and Nick came home. We made dinner: pork chops and mac and cheese, by this time I was beginning to feel achy and have chills. Not good! I don't want to have the flu. We watched some tv and then went to sleep. I had to take Motrin during the night to get me through it. I had a fever and everything. 9:50PM

It was hard waking up today. I showered and went up to campus for 144. We went over homework I didn't want to go over. We're a little behind, and this one was easier than the one I really wanted to look at. So I was frustrated and bored. I then went upstairs to AIS and barely got a power outlet in time. Phew! We learned some new things with Microsoft Dynamics and then I went to the Atrium for lunch. I got alfredo and green beans, yum. I then did some reading out of my Japan At War book for History. I went to History and had a regular class. I walked home and then realized I had to go do some laundry, grr. I was there for like 2 hours and did a ton of laundry. I came home, put it away and then had dinner with Nick. We had jambalaya. Then we watched tv and finished the puzzle! Woohoo. But we're missing a piece :( 10:55PM

We got up at a kinda early time and got ready. We went to Nick's friends place for a beer brunch. I had breakfast there but didn't have anything to drink, wasn't interested. We were there for a long time. We finally left and went to Nick's dad's place to move a canoe. I played with the kitty inside. Then we went to the grocery store for our weekly stuff. We got home and I didn't have enough time to go do laundry so I just did more reading and puzzling. I went up for my sorority meetings and then got a ride back home with Emily. We puzzle more and watched Sunday night shows. 11:03PM

Saturday I slept in till about 9 and tackled some homework. I did a ton of reading. In the afternoon Nick and I began to brew some beer! It took hours. I knew this, but it's just slow, watching beer boil. We cooked a pizza after for dinner and then later watched some puppy shows. We also started a puzzle and that occupied a lot of time lol. A lazy day, mostly because it was rainy all day. Just an ugly day. 10:58PM

I slept in till about 9 today. I got up, showered, had breakfast and then watched my taped Project Runway episode. It was good. I then got to homework and nearly finished this one hard assignment. I had to go up to campus though for History class. There's this odd guy who keeps trying to talk to me now in class, so I'm trying to appear as boring as possible and not keep the conversation going. lol. I came home after class and it was kinda cold again. I had a late lunch of leftover spaghetti and then Nick and I went to the beer store and the home brew store in Winooski. He bought some home brew stuff and we came home. We then walked down to Church Street to look at thermometers and I got a chicken caesar burrito at boloco for dinner. It was huge so i shared it with Nick too. I then dragged Nick to MAC and I got some new/different eye shadow, just two though. So thanks Aunt Sue! We came home and I watched the taped two hour special of Storm Chasers, it was so good. I also watched some other tv and started the movie Hamlet 2 which was pretty bad, but Nick came home and we went over to Eddy's, Amy's and Darby's for a little while. We went to some other house, but left soon after. It was a rainy night and just gross out, cold too. I'd rather it just snow so we don't get all wet. 10:10PM

Thursday. We were back in the computer lab today for 146. We played around with virtual machines again. We got out early and I went upstairs to do homework and it was loud in there again. I don't like that, but hopefully these people won't need to be in there again. I think they're working on a group project and it's due very very soon, so that will hopefully be the end of that. I went to Tax and we had a full day of notes. The latest chapter has 134 slides, absolutely unbelievable! That's the most I've ever seen now. I came home after class and began some homework. I cooked dinner when Nick got home from class. We made beef tips and spaghetti. An odd combination, but it wasn't bad haha. We each did more homework and then relaxed when it was tv time. 10:05PM

In 144 we had a guest speaker who talked the entire hour and fifteen minutes about him and jis job in NYC. It was interesting, but I don't want to go to NYC full time. After class I went to AIS where I successfully claimed a power outlet for my laptop. We did some new things. After class the guy sitting nice to the power strip unplugged everyone's outlet to be nice, but my laptop battery can't hold a charge and it shut down immediately and I wasn't done with my work. Grrr. I came home after class and had lunch with Nick. I walked back up to campus for History. I walked back home and took a nap lol. I did a chapter of reading and for dinner I made meatball subs. They were delicious! We watched some tvs and that was all. 10:08PM

Instead of regular 146 class, we met in the computer lab and played around with virtual machines. It was a little tricky, but it was kinda interesting. After I went upstairs and listened to some homework and did some other things. I went to Tax and we began a new chapter. It was 66 slides in the powerpoint, that's like a ton. After Tax I came home and made a little lunch and began some homework = reading. Nick came home and we made pork chops! Fancy stuff! We didn't have any new tv so we watched Storm Chasers that was on Sunday, and yes that awesome show on Discovery is back for another season! I hope they get some good shots of tornadoes! 9:53PM

Let's see, back to school today. I had 144 and we went over homework. I then had AIS. Today was the day we did the presentation. I was nervous and it showed a little. But we did fine. And haha, nothing had changed with the PowerPoint, which is very good. Nothing should have been changed. I came home after class because I had a huge headache. I listen to a voicemail and it's this job opportunity in Williston, but it's in insurance, and I don't want to sell insurance. I look them up online and they seem pretty fake/unrealistic. Their first year agents make $170,000. And their site seems familiar, I think they've tried to contact me before. Then what really did them in was, Nick got the exact same phone call 15 minutes later, from the same chick. And he isn't qualified at all. At all! So whatever, not responding to that. That's the second fake job I've heard from within the last week. It's annoying and a waste of time, but they are easy to pick out. I had a nice break and lunch with Nick, but I had to go up to campus for another class, History. It was pretty decent. I came home and did what little homework i had and then later made dinner: pasta roni and bread! Mmmm! We watched tv and that was it! 10:57PM

There's no trace of that fly even though I didn't kill it. I don't know what happened to it, but it didn't wake me up this morning. I slept till about 10 stayed in bed for a while. I finally got up, showered, had breakfast and then watched more taped tv shows. I went to the grocery store around 1 and bought a lot of things we needed. It was a nice trip, but I was sweating to death with my coat and vest on, but I didn't want to take it off and keep track of it. I got home and put everything away and went back to the couch. I had finished my homework yesterday so I pretty much just bummed around the apartment for the rest of the day. I finished my magazine and at last around 5, Nick came home from his little trip this weekend to Boston. He went to some beer fest. I visited as he unpacked. I rode with Emily up to campus. She got dinner at Brennans and we went to our sorority meeting. It was the first time the new members came and it was good. I rode home with Emily and then had leftovers for dinner, yum. I watched tv with Nick and that was it! 7:14PM

I woke up at 7:45 because a stupid fly was buzzing around my head. This same fly was bothering me last night while I was cooking and I couldn't manage to kill it, so I got up and attempted killing the fly again, but no luck. I gave up after thirty minutes and got into the shower since there was no change I'd fall to sleep now. I then began my reading and homework for the day. I finished it all and then watched a lot of taped tv shows. Dinner time rolled around I decided to get Chili's to go. I picked it up and watched more tv. It was delicious, chicken crispers with corn, chicken and fries. Mmm. I also read a magazine, but just a lazy and relaxing day. 7:10PM

Friday! I slept in till about 9 and was lazy in the morning. I did some reading and had lunch/breakfast. I then went to History class and got my midterm back, I got a B. That's cool, still have a good shot at an A overall at the end of the semester. I came home and did some more reading. I got an email saying the AIS girl couldn't meet us at school because her car was in the shop. I was pumped because I didn't walk up again for something that didn't need to be done. So I said, we just send out emails instead. We'll see if even that happens. I cooked dinner early: ravioli. mmm! I watched some taped/DVR-ed tv and just stayed in. 10:32PM

Thursday. I started out with 146 where we went over a lot of information. This was good because we had a quiz and I think I did well. I went upstairs to the lab and hoping it to be quiet, there was a group project group in there working. It was a little annoying. I thought few used this room lol. I looked for jobs during this break since I didn't really have any homework to work on. It feels strange to not have a million things due now. As we were waiting for Tax I was listening to other people are saying they can only barely turn on the heat. It's been getting into the 20s now at night, and people only have their heat up to 60, maybe 65 and not running constantly. They have to pay for heat, unlike myself. Heat is a fortune, hundreds of dollars and the houses are poorly insulated. I had Tax and it was back to a normal lecture day. I walked home after class and id some work. I discovered my AIS group wanted to meet tomorrow in order to go over our presentation and change the power point. But we already turned it in!! That's not fair to the other groups. I'm totally against it, and there's nothing wrong with ours, but this girl refuses to listen. I want nothing more to do with this group. I did some more homework and some random job searching and then made dinner with Nick. We made rice a roni and sausage, it was odd like it sounds lol. I walked up to campus for another night of Greek Games, Greek Sync. It was funny, but I got a coughing attack and had to walk out during one. I came home and relaxed for the rest of the night with Nick. 10:26PM

Happy Anniversary to me and Nick! Three years! I was not going to let a stupid group project ruin my day that's for sure. I got up and went to 144, where we went over half of our homework. Then I went to AIS, that's the class the group project is for. I submitted the work before class, and still no response from the guy. But apparently the other girl said she received them this morning and they were bad, so good thing I did them. Still, it's ridiculous. We never ended up presenting, so we'll go on Monday. I'm fine with that since I'm coughing a lot and couldn't manage talking at the moment. I then went to the Atrium for a little lunchy. I got a delicious grilled cheese and french fries for under $5. I then found an outlet, turned on my computer to do some work, but I didn't have any wireless so I couldn't get a head start on my homework. So I walked back to Kalkin and did some homework there. I then went to my History class for a regular lecture. As I was walking home it began to snow flurry! It was sweet. I mean it's early, but I still get a little excited for that first snowfall. When i got home, I made Nick come out and kiss me in the snow (flurries) lol. I then try to do some homework, but I mainly just want to relax since I've been so busy. So I look for jobs instead lol. Nick got out of class around 6 so we decided where we should eat. We walked down to Flatbread but they were pretty busy for a cold Wednesday night. It was about 35 degrees out. We walked to the ATM and then walked home. We got in the car and drove to Friendly's. Hahaha not romantic in the least, but I was pleased with that simple meal. I got some fried chicken and a sundae. I was content. lol. We came home and both applied to some jobs. Then we watched some tv and called it a night. 11:14PM

I woke up 10 minutes earlier than normal to get in a little extra studying for Tax. I went up to campus and first had 146. I then went upstairs to the computer lab but it was locked, so I went back downstairs, but it was noisy in the lab down there. I gave it a little more time, but then went upstairs and ah it was open. I finished my cheat sheet and put a few quiz problems on there and before I knew it, it was time to take the Tax midterm. Some were hard and some were easy. I left and came home. I did my homework that was due tomorrow, Wednesday, and then began to try to finish my stupid group project. Worst group project ever. It's due tomorrow and I've yet to receive the flowcharts that are needed for the paper and power point. This guy has never responded to email and is pissing me off. I start working on the flowcharts because I bet I won't get them. When Nick got home from class we made dinner: spaghetti and meatballs. We had a vodka sauce which was gross, I think, lol. Nick likes it. I then had to rush up to campus for another Greek event. It was a tasting and it was cool, but oops I forgot and just ate. So I sat around talking. We got out early and had a meeting later, so in between I went with Emily to the debate house and killed time by going on the computer/internet. We then drove to Brittany's apartment for an officer meeting. It was probably our most focused meeting ever. We got our stuff done in an hour and were on our way lol. I rode home with Emily and when I got home I had to go right back to work on my flowcharts, because the guy still hadn't sent them out to us. So frustrating. I went to sleep around 12. 11:08PM

Sorry for not blogging, I've been incredibly busy and would go straight to bed after finishing my work. Monday! My cold has moved on from stuffed up nose to a cough. It's going by pretty quickly, it's nice. I started out with 144. We went over homework. We are doing all of these complicated relations and normalizing them. It's complex. I then had AIS. I claimed an outlet because we needed our computers in class, and need them for the rest of the semester, but we're in a room that can't meet the needs of all the students. Not enough power outlets to go around. I was lucky though, phew! I'm thinking about getting just a power strip so I don't have to fight over them. We installed some software we'll be learning and that took the entire hour and fifteen minutes. I then went to get lunch at the Atrium. I got fettuccine alfredo and green beans for less than $5. Best deal on campus. I then studied my history and then went to actually take the exam. It was good, what I expected. It went by really quickly. I came home and began my 5th and final chapter for Tax. I had to leave though before 6 and go back up to campus. I met with my group project people. This stupid group project still isn't done. I then went upstairs to my accounting club meeting. Once that was done, I walked over to Ira Allen and watched the end of the Greek God/Goddess competition. It's Greek Games this week. We did not win, oh wells. I then bummed a ride with Emily to the Davis Center for a meeting, but I thought it was at their apartment. So we went there and waited. Then we discovered it was back at the Davis Center and drove back over lol. Our meeting was long , from 9-11ish. We drove home and I had a hot dog and then went right to bed. 11:33PM

Sunday was a day filled with homework. I got up, had breakfast and finished my History midterm paper. I also studied. Meanwhile, Nick was getting his windshield replaced. When he got home I went out to the laundromat to do my two loads of laundry. I studied for History too. I came home, put the laundry away with Nick and then went out to the grocery store. We're still not use to the new, big store so we forgot to get Nick some things lol. Oops. We came home and I began my 4th chapter of Tax cheat sheet. I then got a phone call saying my sorority meeting was cancelled since so few members were here this weekend. That was nice so I finished my 4th chapter of Tax. Then Nick and I made dinner. He had nachos, and made way too many and I had a tuna sandwich. It was good and filled me up. We watched our Sunday nights show and that was it! 11:21PM

I slept in till about 9. I had some breakfast, showered, and once I was ready, Nick and I went up to campus to the library. We ran into Jay and said hello. I took some pictures of the trees for mom. We went into the library, it was pretty empty. A lot of people went home this weekend since there was no school Friday. Nick and I did some work. He had to get some sources for a history paper. I wrote some of my own history paper. I think we left around 1:30. I woke up this morning feeling stuffed up so I wanted to get some pepperocini peppers to help open up my nose. We went out to get some and also stopped at the Verizon store briefly for him. Then we went to Toys R Us. We were thinking about giving each other Lego's this anniversary, hahaha. But they were too expensive. We came home, had lunch - a chicken sandwich with cheese, mmm! I then did two chapters for Tax, for my cheat sheet. We had dinner, pizza and watched some tv. Nick went out but I wanted to stay in because I was sick. I even did my 3rd chapter for Tax and then went to sleep. 11:17PM

I woke up at 5:45 today. I showered and had breakfast and was out the door after 7 to go take the GMAT. I saw a pumpkin on the ground and kicked it out of the way and then I got in the car and saw Nick's windshield had been smashed by the pumpkin. This is now the 2nd time his windshield has been smashed. It's ridiculous. Our parking spot sucks, but there's no where else we can go. I drove to the GMAT center and they finally opened up just a little after 7:35. They forgot to unlock the door. I read some directions and then they made me scan my palms and they took a picture and my signature. Lots of security. Then you go to the back and they do it all again and then I sat down for the test. It was extremely hard. It just sucked really. I almost considered canceling my scores because I knew I'd done terrible, but I didn't. I got an unofficial printout, it was low low low. Ugh, how horrible. How embarrassing. I came home and told Nick about the car. I was out taking a few pictures when an adorable kitty walked up to me and started meowing. It was such a sweet kitty and looked lost. I brought it inside to the entrance of the doors, so we weren't out in the cold and watched it. I called the phone number, but no answer to I sent them a text since it was a cell phone. The kitty was so sweet and it fell asleep next to me. About an hour later I got a call and gave it back to this girl down the street. I wish I could have kept it, I've never had a cat like me as much as that one did. I then did not feel like working on any homework so I took a long nap. I got up at 3 and went up to campus to do a group project. We were there for about 2 hours. I walked home and made macaroni and cheese. I ate almost the whole thing. I watched tv and just relaxed until Nick got home. Then we went over to Amy's and Eddy's for a few hours. All day I felt like I was on the brink of getting sick. So I was ready to go home before midnight and we did. Hopefully this sickness won't be too bad. 11:30PM

I had 146 first and we got a whole bunch of grades back. I got a B on my exam two days before. Not too bad really. I went up to the 3rd floor lab and wrote out some power point notes for Tax. I didn't have anything to do after that so I studied more for the GMAT. I went to Tax trying really hard to remember all of this information. There's just so much and it can get confusing. I walked home after class and didn't have anything for homework except to write my History midterm essay or write up my cheat sheet for Tax. I chose to study for the GMAT. The test is tomorrow and I'm nervous about the results. I downloaded the GMAT test prep and it comes with two practice tests. I took one before I started studying and I got a 410. I need a 500 for UVM, and it's out of 800. I studied all of these techniques, and retook the test today and wound up with a 410. How disappointing. I had improved none on the math, go figure, and improved my just a few question with the grammar stuff, good, but not great. But the numbers didn't change, and that doesn't exactly make me feel very good about the whole thing. But we'll see. It's just hard. You can't use a calculator for the math and they make it tricky. Let's see what did we have for dinner. Oh, chicken rice a roni. And I watched a little bit of tv after all my studying. 6:18PM

I go up at regular time even though I had another exam today. I first went to 144 and had a normal class. I then went to AIS to take my midterm. It involved more writing than I expected, but it was fine. It just took more time too than I expected. I walked home after class because our landlord would be coming today to fix the ceiling tile, so I wanted to be there. I worked on some things but I just couldn't get my thoughts organized enough for my History midterm essay so I just studied for the GMAT some more. For dinner, Nick and I made pork chops and corn on the cob. It was yummy and filling, and finally the landlord came and cut us a new tile. Yay! We watched some tv and called it a day. 6:13PM

I woke up 10 minutes earlier in order to get a little more studying time in before my Networking exam. I had it first and I thought it went pretty well. I felt sure my answers too, so hopefully I'll get a nice grade out of it. After Nick and I went upstairs to the 3rd floor lab and did a little homework. He went to class and I couldn't to do work. I then went to Tax, and we had a lot to cover before our exam in the next class. We had two quizzes to turn in and someone asked if we could go over them, he explained he doesn't have time, but he'll post the answers and you can email him if you don't understand. He asked if that was ok with this woman and she said, No. Whoa, what! I felt like that was really rude. He explained the same story and she didn't like the answer. So he was like oo haha you're pushy today. So he tried working through the problem, but he wasn't prepared because we had other important things to do and people kept shooting all these questions at him and he was struggling a little. After that problem that same woman wanted another questioned answered and he said I really have to move on, I'm sorry. But the woman was like No! again and then other people starting saying all of these questions. It was like a mutiny or something! He eventually decided to push the exam to Tuesday, but geez, some people. They also take these questions too literally. For instance, if you find like $20 in a parking lot, you're suppose to add it to your taxes and be taxed on it. Because most people keep it and that was the situation of the question. But the same woman was like, I wouldn't keep the money so I chose "none of the above." He tried to explain how the question was not worded that way and it was a general assumption/scenario, but the woman was like I shouldn't lose points because of my morals. Wow. Wow! This person is ridiculous. The adults in the class, like this woman, and others that come back to school for their masters, all look at every single word and detail in the question. It really blows my mind when they explain their thinking procedure and try to swing their mistake into their favor. It has happened almost every single day this semester. What they say is absolutely outrageous. Even the professors are surprised. Anyway. I came home and studied for AIS and then did a lot of other homework. Nick and I had leftovers for dinner and I cleaned the bathroom thoroughly. There is this one ceiling tile in the bathroom that has been getting leaked on and water is weighing it down and it finally fell tonight. I knew it would, but I noticed it too late. So now there's this wonderful hole in the ceiling and the tile needs to be replaced and it gross looking up there. They are coming tomorrow to fix it though. 11:39PM

I woke up and went to 144. The power went off during class and chaos erupted. lol. We need our computers for that class, so mine died instantly without the power charging my battery, lol. And other people with my same gateway laptop lost theirs too. The professor couldn't show things on the board and had to write them on the board. We were running on the generator at this point and finally after 30 minutes, the power came on, but email was still down! Apparently it went out all over campus, but not at my apartment. Although I heard some reports that it was out downtown here and there. Then I went to AIS and we talked about how no one was prepared for the power outage and we're talking about internal control and how to be prepared. It was pretty ironic and shows how much we depend on power and technology. After class I went to the Atrium for a grilled cheese. It was yummy. I then studied for the GMAT between classes. I went to History and got my essay back, I got an A-. Yay!! Finally, I've gotten my first A in a History class after like 6 classes. Every class has always had a tough grader of papers and exams and I've been hovering around B-, B, and B+ my whole time at college with History, but finally today I have gotten my A-. I walked home after class and then went right to studying for 146, Networking. I've got that exam tomorrow. When Nick came home, we were starving so we went out to eat at Olive Garden on mom's treat. We ate soo much. It was very yummy. When we left it was raining and we came home to study more. We watched just a little tv and then studied for the rest of the night. 11:10PM

Somehow I managed to sleep until 10! I had some breakfast and showered up. I did some studying and then cleaned the shower. It was a task. It was mildewy again. Not nearly as bad as it has been before, which makes me feel a little better, but it was still a chore. Eventually Nick and I drove to his house to get him some warmer clothes. Then we went to the revamped/newly reopened price chopper in Shelburne. It was nice! Lots of selection and ti was packed. We may start going there again. We came home, relaxed and then I hiked up to campus for my sorority meetings. I got a ride home and Nick and I made mashed potatoes. Because we got 5 pounds for potatoes for $1. lol. Yeah. And we had that with leftovers. We watched some tv and then I went to sleep at about 11:40. 11:59PM

So I slept in till about 9 today. We decided to get some McDonald's breakfast because we had some coupons that were a good deal. We then had a relaxing day by going to Micheal's and browsing that store. We saw that the Sheraton was hosting some kind of antique show so we checked that out, but discovered it was an exhibit. We decided not to go because it looks like you had to pay to get in and browse. We left and went to the UMall. I looked around in Kohl's at sheets. We need a new fitted sheet since Nick is a rough sleeper. Somehow he pilts his side of the bed and sweats and it's like ruined lol. There's those little rough bumps, while my side is perfectly fine. I couldn't find anything though. We looked in the toy store at Lego's and then went on to see some Halloween stores. We looked in some clothing stores and then left with nothing. We were tired of our walking, so we came home and relaxed some more. We did a little homework. We each don't have much because everything is wrapping up before our midterms. So there's nothing left, but to pretty much study for those. Oh and today was Homecoming Weekend, but it was an ugly gray/sometimes rainy day. We cooked a pizza for a late lunch/dinner and watched Semi Pro on demand for free. It was with Will Ferrell, and it wasn't too stupid, and we found it pretty funny. Dad, you should watch it if you haven't yet. It was about basketball and it reminded me of when I extra-ed in Glory Road by being in the stands and cheering. Later we went over to see Amy and Darby and Nick walked me home around 12. 11:59PM

I slept in till about 9 and made breakfast with Nick. We were out of milk so we made eggs. They were good. He went to work and I stayed home to do what little homework I had left and then studied more for the GMAT. I had lunch and then went to my History class. After those 50 minutes were done, I came home for a little more GMAT time. I stayed in for the rest of the night because I had a headache. I played a little LEGO and watched some tvs. Plus it was a rainy night. 10:59PM

We had 146 to start out the day and everyone in the class together created a network. It was interesting and complicated lol. I then went upstairs to do some homework in the secret lab. I went to Tax and we covered a lot. I walked home and did some more homework, but I didn't have very much. We cooked ham, mac and cheese, and peas for dinner and it was a very yummy meal. We watched our Thursday night shows and I went to sleep just after 11.
