Last week

So its finals week. I have my Russian History final tomorrow morning, and after that I just have my take-home French final to write, which should be about 7 pages, not so bad except that I can't stand the class. I've been packing a box of stuff a day for the past week, trying to eliminate some stress and avoid the frenzied, last minute packing. Now my room looks really bare. Its frustrating to think that just 3 months ago I was doing all the work to move in here, and now I have to turn around and do it all over again.

The thing I hate most about times like this is not the work, and not the procrastinating itself, but the fact that all the procrastinating ends up happening sitting in front of my computer screen, since that's technically where I need to be to potentially do work. If I end up checking Plans or going online or checking my email or making a new playlist one more time I think I'm going to scream! This summer I'm going to close up this little white laptop and not think of opening it for a looong time.

So excited for Block Party this Friday. For those of you reading this not from Grinnell, its where they block off an entire street and all the Grinnell Students go out and start partying around noon or 2 pm to celebrate being done with the year.

I'll be home on Sunday for 2 weeks. I'm looking forward to going to Tahoe & then Nevada at some point during that time.
