Update

Well, the semester is almost over. I have my last final tomorrow morning at 8am (yuck) and then I totally done for the semester! This semester has been kind of jacked up. One of my Physics teachers died. He was at the gym working out. He felt sick and had called a friend to come get him. By the time the friend got there he was much worse so they called an ambulance. Ms. Wu (my other physics teacher) told us that he died on the way to the hospital. He had a massive heart attack. Yikes. So that situation was kind of weird. I've never had a teacher die before. I had one of my seventh grade teachers have a heart attack, a mild one. Another teacher had skin cancer (she used a tanning booth a lot and drank at least a six pack of diet pepsi a day, go figure). It just seems strange to me to have someone you sort of know just all of a sudden not be there.

My English final was interesting. I was exempt from it because I had gotten A's in all of the work assigned (take that high school English teachers who thought I sucked at writing, well, I do suck at spelling but that's a whole other story). I thought that the day of the final he was going to be doing some other stuff so I went. Well, everyone was taking the final and then going home. So, I took the final anyway. Our awesome teacher (Mr. Cummings, CCSN) instucted us that we could collectively help each other in any way, shape or form. Yes, he gave us permission to cheat. It was great! All 50 of us huddled in a corner and read the answers out loud, it was what I'm sure we've all wanted to do at some point in our school career. He figures that we know the material, we've written about it, we've discussed it and he doesn't care if we can memorize it. If we can figure it out in a group setting (which is closer to real life) than we'll be well-rounded adults who are ready to face the "there is no 'I' in team" world. Cool.

Brandon's car got broken into on Monday night. Leif was borrowing it because his Dad and his Wife were in town and he has a toyota spyder which seats two so Brandon and him usually trade when Leif has people come into town. Well, someone broke in and tried to steal the stereo. Brandon and I never take the face plates off our stereos. Now, we will. It's kind of funny because they never actually got the stereo out. Brandon had this steel bar that was WAAAAy back in the belly of the dashboard that was supporting the stereo at the correct angle (so that the stereo doesn't freak out like mine does and refuse to play CD's). So whomever it was really tried, but failed. They took the face plate, although I don't know what the point of that was considering they can't use it on another stereo, it's got a chip in it that is specific to that stereo's serial number. Oh well, good thing Brandon bought me a new stereo for my birthday last year that we haven't installed yet. :l

I need coffee.

Only 14 days until we go to seattle and see everyone! I'm really excited.

Only 12 days till christmas!? Jeez, I haven't started any of my Christmas projects. I suck.
