| Well, right now I am in Lafun studying with Amanda and Krystie... which of course means I'm procrastinating...
The end of this school year is coming fast... almost too fast for me to even be able to realize what is happening around me. In 1 1/2 weeks, I will be home for easter for 5 days... Then I come back here, have 2 1/2 weeks of classes, 1/2 week of study days, 1 week of finals, and I'm done.
Holy crap.
Where the heck did this year go? While I am totally excited at the prospect of spending the summer just relaxing (or, well, as relaxing as you can get working M-F/9-5), I don't quite know what to do with myself.
I've been working so hard lately. There's just so much work to do... I'm overly stressed, and worried that I'm going to make the wrong decisions for classes to take next year.
In the next little under 1 month and 1/2 I still have:
- about 7 tests (if we are counting biodiversity, 3 if not)
- 3-4 quizzes
- 1 final paper to write
- 1 French composition
- 1 French oral
- 1 Calculus Project
- 5 finals
- The Welsh Fam Spring Formal
- Concert for 'net Choir
- Maybe the Welsh Fam Cotillion Ball (unless it gets pushed back to fall)
- Blue/Gold Game
- Room picks
- Register for classes
- and so much more...
How am I even going to do this? The year is spiralling to an end, and I don't even have time to breathe. I'm sure I'll get through this... and then I'll be home...
and then the summer...
Lately, I've been doing a lot of thinking about life... it's just such a funny thing. Life let me get here, to the one place I knew I would be happiest, and I'm still trying to have faith that life is going to put everything else into place as well. Except, sometimes it's hard to have faith in that... It's hard to have faith in yourself and the decisions you've made, and it's hard to have the faith to believe that God has a plan for you and no matter what, you will end up in the place you are supposed to be. I'm trying so hard to believe that... so so hard.
I suppose I just have to keep on believing and just trust, trust in God and myself...
I wish it were as easy as it sounds...

P.S. Do you ever have those feelings where your heart is so full you don't even know what to do? Ya... that's me right now...
Oh, and the chronicles of narnia soundtrack has made it so much easier to study. I've probably listened to it about 100-150 times... no lie. I am a huge nerd. I admit it.

| Nothing could bring this night down... West quad mass was amazing. I love mass at the Basilica! And campus just looked so gorgeous after a fresh snow. On the way back from the Basilica we were all throwing snowballs, and then these random guys started launching snowballs at us, it was so fun, I felt like a little kid again! And I have awesome friends, I mean, really and truly amazing friends, they are always here for me, and I'm so grateful for them.
Tomorrow midterms start, blech, but come friday, it's Spring Break! I'm really excited because on friday, I'm going home with Liz Peterson to Buffalo to experience the wonders of Niagra Falls (oh Eagle Band) and Canada (heh heh...). Then I'm leaving her house tuesday night and getting in to Minnesota real late... I'll be home from March 15 - March 19, back home for my birthday... awwwww... So, if any of you will be in town, let me know!
Well, I must be getting to sleep... French exam tomorrow! EEK! Hopefully it will go well! Ciao!

P.S. The closing hymn in mass today was 'Jerusalem, My Destiny' which of course meant that my silly friends decided sing so loudly that we were all laughing... What a great, great song. Oh, and another high point, at the end of mass we sang Notre Dame our Mother, and on the closing lines "Love thee Notre Dame" Amanda raised her hand like we do during football season... Oh Amanda, even though you were the only one and it just made us laugh harder, how we love you... Anywho, goodnight all!

| Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm... Apparently I don't update this anymore.
Sorry about that.
Life is busy and college classes make it even busier.
Sometime soon I may attempt to actually do a real update.
I'll see what I can do about getting on that...
Ciao.

| The Band Dance was last night, and since I don't update often, I figured I'd enclose some pictures just for the heck of it. It was so much fun! It was at the college football hall of fame. But my date Tim, and Liz and Dave and I all went out to dinner first at this really nice restaurant. Here's Liz and i just coming out from the cold! 
Here's Coll and I getting "complicated", lol... and for the record, Colleen and I are not naked in this picture, just wearing strapless dresses, lol. This is at the 'net before party... it was sort of prom themed. Shannon and I were going for the whole, swept off your feet prom look. I think we succeeded. 
And then this is Tim and I being goofy  All and all a very good night. Maybe after I finish some more homework today I'll put more pictures up. For now, it's h/w time for me! Ciao! ~Jenni | | |
| Life is absolutely wonderful! 
I love waking up in the morning having NO IDEA what the day will bring.
I don't even know why I'm updating. I have spare time I suppose... I'm keeping up with my homework and have so much free time to hang out with friends. It's amazing!
I guess I'm just enjoying being alive. I love making the most of every second, and I just love this feeling! Wow, life rocks.
This was the most pointless entry ever. lol, but I don't care!!!
