No more jackets

I think it is safe to say that you will no longer be seeing anyone wearing jackets for the rest of the summer. The weather has been pretty great for the last couple of days and everybody is loving out. Everyone seems so excited about finally being able to go outside after being cooped up in the dorms for the whole winter. Saturday almost everybody seemed to be at the beach. This was the first weekend where I didn't worry about doing any homework, I was too busy outside enjoying the day. Last night I tried to go to the library for a little while but that didn't work out too well. Hopefully I can get back into school mode for the next couple of weeks and focus on studying for my finals.

laundry

The laundry situation in Christensen is pretty bad. I went down there this morning and all the washers were taken up except for one. I was going to use it but a girl that was in there told me I shouldn't use it because it was broken. Apparently there had been a huge puddle in front of it. So I ended up having to wait about half an hour to start my laundry and when I took it out of the washer, it was soaked. So apparently there a a few washers that are broken. While I was taking my clothes out there was another girl complaining about how soaked her clothes were too. I put my clothes in the dryer for 45 minutes and when I went down to take it out, they were still wet. So I had to start the dryer again, and hopefully when I go down this time, they will be dry.

Barcelona

Today was the second leg of the Champions League semi-final between FC Barcelona and Inter Milan. Inter won the first game 3-1 so Barcelona had to score two and make sure Inter did not score at all in order to win and go on to the final. Unfortunately Barcelona could only manage to score one goal so Inter will be headed to the final at the Santiago Bernabeau Stadium in Madrid, Spain to face FC Bayern Munich. I was really hoping that Barcelona would be able to make it to their second final in a row but that won't be happening anymore. One of my life goals is to go to Spain and watch Barcelona play at their home stadium. Their stadium is one of the biggest in the world with a capacity of almost 100,000. I have been to a stadium where there were 80,000 people at the game but I think with 20,000 more people the atmosphere at the game would be much different.

Peer Advising

Today I have my last peer advising session. I am pretty glad that I don't have to do it again next semester because I kind of thought it was a waste of time. The only thing that I really found useful was that we had to make our schedule pretty early because our adviser had to sign off on it. Other than that though I didn't really get too much out of it. The assignments that we had to do were kind of stupid and not really that necessary they pretty much just gave me another thing to add to do to my to-do list. We only met every other Tuesday but it would always seem like the day of my advising period I would have the most to do and I would kind of have to rush everything in order to make sure I was ready of peer advising.

Girl Talk

Tomorrow I am going to wait in line to buy tickets to Girl Talk who is scheduled to be coming here on May 7th. Hopefully I will not have to wait in line for too long but I don't think that will be too much of a problem. I don't feel like Girl Talk is really that popular here at UNH and the fact that Sam Adams is coming here on the same day might keep the lines a little short. I am excited for the concert though. I have heard some of the stuff that Girl Talk has put together and I think it's pretty good. I looked up some of his concerts on youtube and they look really cool. They are basically crazy dance parties with a light show to match. I think the concert will be a pretty good time.

Wasting Time

I hate the feeling when you wake up late on a Friday and then you feel like you waste the rest of the day. I had some work to do today, not enough that I won't be able to catch up but I could have gone to the library and got it done in order to free up the rest of my weekend. Instead I kind of just hung out today. I went to the gym, played some basketball, and hung out with my friends. Now I am planning on spending most of the day in the library tomorrow to catch up on my homework. Hopefully I don't get up too late and make the same mistake as today

The Pool Room

Most days me and a couple of my friends go to the MUB and play pool after lunch if we enough time. Basically it is a time to relax a little bit and forget about the stresses of class and college life in general. It is surprising how good of a stress reliever it is. It is just a simple game but as soon as we get in that room we just all start relaxing a little bit more. We usually say we are just going to play a couple of games but we usually end up staying for an hour or two. We aren't that good but I guess we all just like to compete against each other no matter how trivial the game is.
