The Third Week Slump

No one warned me that all school work gets crazy the third week. I had more stuff due Friday then ever! I had a presentation, 2 quizzes, a ton of reading, a math project due, an astronomy assignment, and i'm sure there was more! I am sure there will be crazier weeks, but I was definitely not prepared for this one!

Its been a pretty basic week till the end. By Tuesday the most exciting thing that had happened was the swarm of bats that were all above main hall! My friend Anna loves birds. So we are walking to go get food and there are a ton of birds. I asked Anna what they were and she said BATS! I was not expecting that.. I was momentarily scared to leave my room.
Here is a picture of them, but I don't think you can really see much of anything. (Do take notice of the clouds! It finally cooled down!)

To continue with the craziness of last week, Rebekah got really sick. A stomach bug is going around The Lofts and I am determined not to get it! I currently have a little cold, but its nothing too bad, thank goodness! 
On Wednesday my throat was hurting me, so I decided to come back to my room and make hot chocolate. I grabbed my mug and went to grab the hot chocolate. I DIDN'T HAVE ANY! I swear I had some! Where did it go! There is a chance that the room ghost took it. I have had more things mysteriously disappear then in my entire life! I then preseded to just drink warm water, and talk to Ryan and Trey on the phone. (Obviously this was way better then doing anything to prepare for my crazy day Friday). 
Here is a picture of me when I realized I had no hot chocolate! I was really disappointed. 

Thursday was crazy! I had two classes and from 12:15 to late into the night I was doing homework. I did have my first work meeting in that time! We just went over the procedures and rules, but I am very excited to get to work! There is such a positive love in the whole working crew! Thursday night we had an open mic night at Jonzzeys. Jonzzeys is a restaurant on campus. They have panini's, smoothies, and other things for sale. Ewa had been practicing on her ukulele and sang two songs. Then Rebekah even though she was sick decided to go up and sing! It was so much fun and I was mad I had to leave early to keep doing homework.
Here is a picture of Ewa and Rebekah performing.

When I took a shower Thursday, there was a giant creepy bug! It was the length of my pinkie and I didn't know what to do! So I took a picture and watched it while I was in the shower. Then I lost it! I don't know where that creepy thing is, but its still alive and i'm terrified. Earlier when I said the bats were keeping me inside, ya I now am considering always leaving my room! 
Here is a picture.

Thursday it was announced that our former President of the school that just got replaced 10 days ago, passed away. Here is a link to the official announcement of this: http://svu.edu/news/2014/former-president-paul-k-sybrowsky-dies-at-70/

This was a shock to everyone. He had been keeping the secret of his sickness and everyone was heart broken. The whole school has been kind of sad.
Friday we had our official start of school during our Forum. We got to meet our new President (President Wilcox) and his wife Diane. They are so great and I am excited to hopefully meet them and talk with them. They are awesome! The forum had a lot of mention of our past president and it was really special.

There is a bit of my week! I have a few more posts in mind for this weekend! So there will for sure be more up on Sunday!
