I never imagined a week could go by so fast and leave me feeling so utterly wiped out. As my "Math for Meds" class wrapped up a half an hour early, I felt the tingling excitement of the upcoming weekend. Friday had finally wrapped up and I was free to flee campus! Don't get too excited though, the tingling excitement only lasted about 2 minutes, which ironically happens to be the distance between math class and my main lecture room.
As I gathered my goods from main lecture room, I thought over what the weekend had in store for me. Every book that I lugged into my bag made my heart sink just a little bit more. By the time I was ready to walk out to my car, I was confusing the weight of my book bag with the weight of my heart which quickly translated to the weight in my feet. I drug my heels to my car, and towards this long weekend.
Friday night consisted of: Study, study, email classmates, study, complain about studying, eat dinner, study, watch Animal Planet and then study. I shut the books at midnight and spent the next hour with Chiclet (Laura). I almost can't think of a better way to end the day. Talking to her makes me feel better about life and better about myself.
This morning I cleaned my room, which really just means re-organizing my notebooks and school books. The piles are taking over my room.
Good news:
-A friend has some old nursing books that match up to mine, so I can return a few of mine to the bookstore. I think it is going to add up to over $200.
-Another friend received good news on a pending Greencard/Visa, and gets to keep making Maui home. Yaaay!
-It has been windy, and there have been waves. Everyone has been cheerful because of the good conditions.
Bad news:
-My first exam is Monday
-I have been too busy with school and work to enjoy the wind and waves
Finally, I am stealing a few pictures from other people. Here are the happenings on Maui for the last couple weeks.
Crazy wind and wave conditions the last few weeks. Here is a video from Giampaulos blog (www.mauisurfreport.blogspot.com). It is a Kiter and Kevin Pritchard at Hookipa, the world famous spot right near my house.
