My Brain is Swirling Around in a Pool of Jelly. . .

Yes, that's right. Right now I feel as if my brain has been on overload for the past 24 hours or so. It has actually been on overload for the past few days. Even as I write this I am feeling a little dizzy. Anyway, this week has been exams week. Because of this I have been in constant study and practice mode. Monday morning I started by taking the oral portion of my sight singing final. I can't even discribe the amount of anxiety I felt before this. I spent all Sunday afternoon studying for that dumb final. I finally felt relieved at about 7:45 AM on Monday when the torture was over with. Thankfully, my sight singing teacher gave me a fairly descent solo and duet. The fun was not over yet. That afternoon I had my theory final. For this final I did not even want to take it. It was one of those finals where you pretty much know everything but you have to take the test anyway to prove to your professor you remember all that you learned. At lunch I went with everyone to the Loop and had a fun time studying and eating. At 3 o' clock I took my theory final and was done around 4:10. I didn't even want to check my answers because like I said my brain was cooked. That night I did not want to worry about the rest of my finals and went to Chick-fil-a with Aly and Amanda and later watched the Wizard of Oz. It was definitely fun drawing the characters! :)

Today I had the chance to sleep in but after I was done getting ready for the day it was off to practice for piano. I didn't spend much time practicing for my piano exam since this one worried me the least. After that I returned to my room to eat lunch. I then decided I needed to study for my math exam which was coming Wednesday. Two hours later I finally finished that. By that point my brain was on overdrive. Still, I had an essay to write for a scholarship. The topic for the essay is the American Revolution which appeals to my liking. I've always been interested in history so the essay wasn't too hard to do, just time consuming. I started writing down some of ideas and collecting my thoughts. I wasn't long till I had my first paragraph. I thought about stopping but I was so entralled that I had to keep writing, amazingly enough. I finished everything before my piano exam but I was a little upset because the essay is limited to 500 words. Finally an essay topic comes along that really interests me and they limit to 500 words. As far as my piano exam goes, that went fine.

After this craziness relief was in sight as I went to Ruby Tuesday's for my first Epicenter meeting(even though it was really just a get-together)! I ordered one of my Ruby Tuesdays favorites, the sirloin tips stacker. :) While there I enjoyed some good conversation with friends. Alan and Karina always crack me up. I'm really looking forward to Epicenter next semester. I'm really hoping to see my relationship with Christ grow more and more. Also I look forward to building stronger bonds with friends. That's all for now. I'm ready to get some sleep before one more exam, math. Blah. Anyone can probably tell that in this post I didn't care much for good sentence structure, proper tenses, or diction as my brain wants to explode.

Hope everyone has a good exam week!
