Hump Day...
I'm moving my Hump Day until tomorrow evening since that is when the gauntlet of tests, papers and other commitments will be over for at least a few days. Not to be a downer, I am celebrating fighting through all the work and coming out with practically a three day weekend to enjoy. Common sense would tell me to postpone writing this until after all these examinations are complete, but then again, procrastination is the whole reason I keep this thing up and running.
I received a postcard, written backwards of course, from my oldest friend Shelley who is currently globetrotting her way around Europe. My letter came from Moscow, Russia where she said she was housed about a block from the infamous Red Square. I had to hurry back to my apartment to find a mirror in which to read her Da Vinci-esque correspondence. As much as I enjoyed getting this classic form of mail that I appreciate more than email, I would like her to answer my email, ahem! That is no matter however. It indicates what I will announce here, that I will be spending my last week in the States before heading on my own international venture to Ireland in the lovely Johnson residence in Nags Head, North Carolina and all of you my dear readers are invited! (May 31-June 4) So, if you have the time, drop in whenever.
Speaking of the great state of North Carolina, THE University brought the National Championship back to its rightful home on the high-class end of Tobacco Road by defeating Illinois 75-70 Monday evening. It was a sweet, sweet ending to an awesome college basketball season made sweeter by the team that I grew up in love with (7 year veteran of Dean Smith's basketball school!) to take home the ultimate prize. Perhaps it was made just a teeny bit sweeter by the Coach K commercials running throughout the Final Four, but at that point, he and his team of hooligans was merely an afterthought.
So, its high time I got crackin' on all this here studying I need to get done. Things coming up in the world of me: meet the Woods family this weekend (hopefully not a rerun of Meet the Parents) and a couple days of relaxation/going out at least one good night. Maybe Drinky McStevens will return to claim back the title that is slipping from her grasp.
Only time will tell.
