MERRY XMAS

Got a huge spider bite on my right side, around my lower ribs. Hurts so fucking bad right now. Tomorrow I have to write a four page paper, which I'm not looking forward to doing but work is work. Other than that I have a final on Thursday and then I'm officially done with this semester. This semester went by so fast, and I think this is the best I've done in terms of grades so that makes it that much sweeter.

Much like Isaac posting every Monday and Wednesday, I've created a pattern of writing nearly every weekday for the last month or so lol. Anyway today I registered for my classes and overall I'm happy but I have two classes on Fridays now... at least I only have one on Mon/Wed. Now that I'm done with that I have to start studying for my music/psych/critical thinking tests. I'm only worried about music because I really slacked off the second half of the semester and barely read the book. I should be okay though... WISH ME LUCK.~
