To do.. To do.. To do..

Oh boy has life gotten busy lately! I made an impromptu trip home last weekend to protest in Madison with the rest of my family which was a great experience. I was happy to stand up for what was right and it was nice to see my family.
This week has been preparations for a big festival thing at my school called the international bazaar. Different organizations around campus represent a country by decorating an 8 by 8 booth (with paint, construction paper, and tissue paper on styrofoam), performing some type of entertainment (singing, dancing, readings, etc), and cooking a native food. Yesterday and today were the days allowed for decorating and I will have to say it went AWESOME! I was a little worried that we wouldn't have enough people helping out but we got a majority of it done yesterday and finished today 2 hours early, I was very happy! Now this Friday and Saturday the booths will be open to the public and they will be able to see what we decided to represent and cook.. I'll put up pictures later this weekend.
I will not be able to work the bazaar friday as I won concert tickets to Rascal Flatts through a drawing :) The concert is about an hour and 15 minutes away but I am very excited! It will be a good break from all of this.
Then next week is Midterms :'( I have a very busy week.. 4 tests, 3 quizzes, and who knows what else.. it's going to be rough. At the end of it though is SPRING BREAK, which will make it all worth my while. I get to go home again and spend time with my family, and work :( I will also be able to bring my new laptop back down to school with me afterwards :) . My very wonderful and loving parents bought it for me in preparation for Spain and I think it will be very nice to have it at school for the rest of the semester and I am happy they are letting me bring it back down! But then it will back to the salt mines to finish up my semester.. I cannot wait till this summer!
I will post next week with pictures while I am procrastinating eh emm I mean taking a study break at some time :P

Hope you are all well!
