PTL!

Praise the Lord, i just took my last german test EVER! I have had four long semesters with german. Four long classes that equal 19 credit hours of german total.

I just took my german final and it was.... interesting. Our teacher sent us a studyguide online and when i opened it to look at it, it said: you cannot study for this final. either you know the information or you dont.

GREAT.

that's helpful...

So, I have no idea how I did on the final. but hopefully I did average. I'm hoping for the best!

As much as I am relieved to never again have to take a german test, write a german paper, memorize german vocabulary or sit through a class where a teacher asks you a question and all you can do is stare at her because you dont know what she said, I will also greatly miss german. For some strange, I love the german language. That's probably why I took 4 classes of it.

I love knowing how to speak another language. Right now I am at my prime when it comes to speaking german. I have peaked, if you will. I speak, hear and write german quite fluently and I'm sad that everyday I spend away from german class, I'll be losing some of my german skills.

If ya don't use it then ya lose it.

Maybe this means i should travel to germany?!

Sports, Bread and Shag Carpet

Alright folks, this is the moment you've been waiting for.... i'm updating my blog!!

Hmm. What's new in my life?

a.) I finally got an internship! with kstate athletics! as did Tricia! this is good news for many reasons: the internship is durinng the school year so I can still work at KDOT this summer (yay?). Also, I can go to all the football and basketball games for free so I dont have to buy any tickets this year.

b.) The lady Aardvarks lost their first soccer game the other night. but we're still in the playoffs so no biggie. We duel it out tonight in the first playoff game.

c.) My mom and my Nana are coming to visit me this Friday. Which means I need to clean my room. Gotta keep up appearances for Nana!

d.) I am out of food right now. I have nothing to eat. All I want is some sandwich bread and some chips. I have stuff to put on the bread... just no bread. And i'm out of POP!! Clearly, I'm living in a state of destruction.

e.) I have tons of projects and papers and test to cram in sometime in the next 7 days. and really just not enough time to do it. But i'm sure you can all relate.

f.) my parents are re-doing our basement. my brother used to live in the basement and so things got really weird and smelly down there. but he moved out and so now we are completely re-doing it. New paint, new carpet, new furniture, the whole works. My parents are making it music themed (they would...). I think there is going to be shag carpet. And record covers on the walls. How groovy of them.

Well that's all I've got for now. Don't expect many posts from me this summer. Not because I'll be too busy having fun adventures. But because I'll i have absolutely nothing to write about.

Unless you want to read a post about how we got new pens at work and it was really exciting.
