Today was my only day this week I didn&#8217;t have an activity or meeting after classes are out, and let me tell you, that break was greatly needed. This week seems to be hard for everybody. I&#8217;m so tired and trying to fight off a cold. My first econ exam is tomorrow so I&#8217;m at my best friend&#8217;s house stuyding right now but it doesn&#8217;t really seem like there&#8217;s much left for me to study, so I&#8217;m feeling pretty goo about it. Hopefully I can make it an early night and be well-rested for the test tomorrow. This week is going by so slowly! I want it to be over. I&#8217;m so tired, i&#8217;m getting impatient. I&#8217;ve been researching study abroad a lot and have pretty definitely decided that I&#8217;m going to University College London first semester next year through direct enrollment in the university which is, obviously, in London, and second semester I&#8217;m going to Dijon, France through Puget Sound&#8217;s program. I just want to go now!<\/p>\n<p>Going along those lines, I suppose the other biggest thing that has happened in my life lately (I haven&#8217;t written in\u00a0a couple weeks because I&#8217;ve been SO busy with everything&#8211; LITERALLY not a spare moment) is that I&#8217;m probably going to change my major from Foreign Language and International Affairs with Spanish as my language to having French as my language, and minoring in Spanish instead of French. I&#8217;m meeting with my French teacher soon to talk about it but hopefully it will all work out.<\/p>\n<p>My grandparents will be visiting next weekend and I&#8217;m really excited! They&#8217;ve never been here before, and it will be nice to show them around. Tomorrow is my mom and grandma&#8217;s birthdays (yep, my grandma had my mom on her own birthday) and my grandparents will be visiting my parents before heading up here. I still find it weird when my family and friends have birthdays when I&#8217;m away&#8211; I wish I could be there!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m going to go finish up my studying now and head back to my room for a shower and perhaps some coloring&#8211; one of my best friends from home sent me a hilarious Harry Potter coloring book, and I&#8217;m finding it quite relaxing to spend part of my evening bringing life to outlines of Harry, Ron and Hermione. \ud83d\ude09 Good night!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s only eight o&#8217;clock and I feel like it&#8217;s ten.
