Here's an update!

I'm sure Mom and Dad remember Bill Ferris. He's kind of hard to forget, with that red hair. Well, one of the Charity Week things is a shave-off -- you specify an amount, people donate, and if you raise that amount you shave your head. Bill Ferris did it, and shaved his head. Most of it went to Locks of Love, which is good. That was about a week ago, and now he looks like he just got a buzz cut.

A week ago was the dance. I wore that one dress Anna made me buy back in junior year. The dance was so much fun and SO much better than the choir banquet dance sophomore year. Some of my friends and I went to Empress of China beforehand and IHOP afterwards.

Speaking of IHOP, we also went there on Tuesday (I thiiink) evening and Thursday night. The people who went on Thursday night decided that it will become a biweekly tradition, occurring after those with work-study get their paychecks...Speaking of paychecks, I need to go to the bank.

Schoolwise -- I'm making an A in German. We played Twister in German the other day. That was extremely amusing, because it was ten college students and one doctoral candidate playing. That doctoral candidate is an adjunt professor in the theology department and teaches some of my friends, so I got to tell those friends I played Twister with their professor. One of the girls was wearing a really short skirt. Somehow she managed to get things that did NOT require her to bend over, THANKFULLY....

I had a Politics exam on Monday. I still don't know how I did. Theology quiz Thursday, which I didn't do too well on, but I know I almost certainly made somewhere in the 65-75 range, so that's okay. Still haven't gotten the English paper revision back. Speaking of English, I don't have it on Monday morning because my professor is doing PhD stuff and can't make it. We're either going to have him on Wednesday or a sub, and Friday is Fall Reading Day. But we're ahead in that class, so it's okay.

The thing about my classes is, I have to have at least a B average to keep my scholarships for next year. If I don't have my scholarship I can't go to UD. I need to have a slightly higher average for the National Merit scholarship, but I can survive without that one so I'm not too worried. But right now I don't really know any grades, so yeah.

On Friday, Duncanville tennis had a match against Arlington Lamar. We don't like Arlington Lamar. Anyways, Duncanville team won 10-9. Luke lost doubles, but won singles. And I got to go watch, because Mrs. Olsen is a very, very nice lady. I also got to go home and see Lydia's adorable dwarf hamster!

I'm hoping to go to Incarnation tomorrow morning. I don't know if that'll work out though.

The thing about my bed at college is that it is ridiculously comfortable and makes it extremely hard to get up. This is at once a very good thing and a very bad thing, especially when one must get up early than one would like.

That's all for now!
