A place for me to express myself and put random things that won't make sense to anyone, including me!

3 days til I leave!!!!!
So, it's my last week in town before I take off to Oregon for half a month and suddenly I have a million things to do! I have a class to finish, a distance class to finish up to a certain point (not doing so well on that one), dancing to do, the fair to go to, and friends to hang out with and give rides to. Not that I mind any of it, well, except maybe the class parts; I'd be happy to skip those. Oh, and I have to do laundry and pack... at some point. I think that might end up being Friday afternoon before heading to the airport. :P Although I was hoping to take a nap then since I have to travel all night. *shrug* Que sera, sera. I'm so excited to be leaving in 3 days though, even though I've hardly had a chance to think about it yet. I'll be there soon John!
In other topics, I'm thinking about taking an ASL (American Sign Language) class this fall. It does fit in my schedule, although tightly. I've been learning odds and ends from Travis and Jessica when I can and I really like it, but I don't know if I could/should handle another class. I know my mother will say I should stick to working on spanish, but I can't take any spanish classes with my regular class schedule. And I really need to find a way to just practice spanish instead of taking more classes cause the classes are way over my head since I don't have the fluency to help me keep up. Someday, hopefully before too many years pass, I'll be able to go to a spanish speaking country and immerse myself for awhile. But in the meantime, I'd like to try some ASL. I'd honestly like to try a lot of different languages, but most of them are romantic languages and I'm scared to try to learn more than one of those because I'm bound to get them confused. :P But ASL is much more like english, at least I can think in english while signing and not be so far off. Anyways, it will add to my class load, so I have to think about that. Plus it makes my Tuesdays and Thursdays even fuller than they already are. We'll see.
Anyways, I need to try to get some homework done for my distance class and call John. Goodnight all!
