What's been going on

Sunday night, I spent my last night in my dorm room. It was kind of sad, but I could only get so upset about it since I know that I'll be living in the same room next semester. I got up and took my Chemistry final Monday morning, on which I recieved an 85, and a B in the class. I was kind of disappointed with this since it turned out to be my only grade that was not in the A range (yes, I even managed to pull an A- in my dreadful Zoology class), but I guess I'll just have to take it since about halfway through the semester I was really worried that I was going to get a C+. Oh well, maybe I'll make an A+ in Organic Chem to make it up. (insert sarcastic laughter). Anyway, I ended this semester with a 3.6 GPA, and I'm pretty proud, because that was my goal. I've had many doubts this semester about whether or not I should pursue vet school, and I guess that this was my affirmation. I went home Monday night, and went back to school Tuesday morning to move all of my stuff out. I said goodbye to my boyfriend that I probably won't see again until August. I gleefully said goodbye to my suitemates that have been horrible this semester, and I'm quite glad that I won't have to put up with their BS again next semester.

I cried last night when Chris Daughtry got voted off of American Idol. I've voted for him several times every week just because I loved hearing his recorded phone message thanking me for voting for him, and ironically, this was the first week that I was unable to get through. I'm not sure how I feel about American Idol now. I'm not trying to be a spoiled little girl about it, but he was my favorite, and now he's gone, so I'm not sure that I'll even watch the show anymore because frankly, I just don't see any reason to do so. If I do, I'll definitely be voting for Elliott and Taylor. This week's outcome only deepened my hatred for Katharine McPhee. It was her week to go, and Chris got robbed.

In other news, don't be expecting very many posts this summer. Although I think it's interesting to live in an old house (this one was built in the early 50's), it does come with its share of problems. Our most recent one is that our outlets seem to be going bad, including the one that this computer is plugged into. So basically I'll be typing or surfing the internet, and the computer will just die, losing everything I've just done. This, combined with our uber slow dial-up connection (it took the blogger update page nearly 5 minutes to load) mean that posting is probably more difficult than is worth. So for now, Adios, and may your summers be filled with everything you wish for.

I can't believe that Chris was kicked off! I didn't watch, but I heard all of their clips and Katherine was terrible! She forgot her lines! That could be all right if it were any other artist on any other show, but for screwing up Elvis's lines on American Idol - she deserves to be shot! I don't plan on watching the show anymore except to see the final one.
Thanks for commenting on my blog - I guess you saw that I was pretty upset then - but every little bit helped - so thank you!
Congratulations on your grades - I think that they are great, especially compared with the sadistic tests you had to put up with and the diabolical classes and lectures you had to sit through. I still think that you made dean's list, so congratulations in advance.
I'll be reading your blog just about every day, so post as often as you can - and I'll show up as "Roachdale, Indiana," on the sitetracker. I don't know why, but that is the way it is. Have a great summer!
