Home now. Well, I've been home since Friday night, but I've been too lazy to update. :p
Things have been pretty good. First, I turned in my study abroad application. Now my part is completely done and it's out of my hands and I just wait for the response. I'm gonna be nervous about waiting, especially since I really, really want to go abroad (London! Months in London!), but it is a relief to have it out my hands now.
My last final was eh. I probably could have studied more for it and gotten a better grade, but it doesn't really matter. On the syllabus for this class my professor was kind enough to give us point totals for all the assignments, so I figured out, from the totals and my previous grades, what score I'd need on the final to get an A in the class. And I'd need to fail the final to get less than an A--literally, I'd have to get less than a 60%. Which is not gonna happen. So I have at least one class with a guaranteed A, which is nice.
I planned my drive home very well. I'd wanted to leave school at eight, and, wonder of wonders, I actually did. The drive was supposed to be thirteen hours, but that wasn't counting any stops I made, so I figured it'd be maybe fourteen hours. Except I speeded enough that I did do it in thirteen hours, including stops for lunch, dinner, and ice cream. And I only had to drive in the dark for about half an hour, just when I was getting into territory I really knew and had no problem driving through in the dark.
Saturday I went to
velesia's graduation, then her grad party that afternoon, and then out for drinks that night with our friends. That was an awesome day, and also I had this awesome cocktail called a Juniper Smash. I don't remember what was in it now, besides gin, but one of my friends wrote down the recipe on the menu so he could try to make it himself.
Sunday I slept a lot. I really slept in, and then that afternoon was still tired enough that I needed a nap.
Today I did some shopping and job applications. Gah. I don't want to get a job--I want to laze around my entire summer--but I need one, and I think I can get one if I'm persistent enough, even if it's not the best job in the world. I know that places my friends work are hiring, so I'm probably going to try there as well and see if I can work with friends.
Now this week I think I can get to fandom obligations. Whoo!
But first more sleep. XD
