I have a lot of stuff to cover, so we'll try to get this done as quickly as possible.
It's finals week! Hooray! My last week as an undergrad. I managed to write a 10 page final exam paper in under four hours, and finished up a group presentation 30 minutes before the class began. Oh, how I'll miss this hectic time.
Our family cat, Pumpkin, of the past 20-some years (at least, this is how it feels) died yesterday, as it had gotten so old that it was breaking bones and other horrible things. The vet said that it would only get worse and be in more pain, so my parents had it put to sleep. Blargh.
I was accepted into Washburn College of Law in Kansas, but was put on the wait list for UNL and Creighton. Even though I would love to try again next year to get into UNL, especially now that I have a better understanding of the law school application process, I feel it would be irresponsible for me to gamble it all on one school. If I turned down Washburn this year I definitely wouldn't be able to apply to it next year, and there's no guarantee I could get into UNL or Creighton if I tried again. So I will be attending Washburn, which to its credit was a very nice school (I enjoyed touring the campus), and I put myself on the wait list for my other two schools. If a spot opens up, I'll take it, otherwise... see ya later guys, I guess!
ON MAY 10th, I will be having a graduation party (around noon, after the UNL graduation ceremony). It will take place at Mussehl Hall on East Campus. Lunch will be provided by Valentinos. I think my Aunt and Uncle from Chicago will be there, as well as my Grandmother (Mom's mom). If you want to come, please let me know by the end of Thursday by posting in this journal. If you don't know where Mussehl Hall is, leave your email and I can send you a map. Thanks in advance, if you guys decide to come.
Now I must go give blood so I can afford to go see the Iron Man movie with Mike. Tomorrow is also my sister's birthday (she'll be 21), so I have to figure out what to get her...
