Up and Runnin'

Howdy folks. Well, it's a week later and I'm finally back to almost normal. I'm still coughing more than usual, especially after walking to class in the cold weather, but I'm feeling like a human being again. Thank God that illness is over...it was horrible! Now I'm just trying to dig myself out of the pile of work that built up around me. Most worrisome at the moment is Greek. I feel so behind...and we have a midterm on Friday. I think the chances of doing well on that exam are very slim. I was given the option to hold it off, but that really wouldn't make things any better, as I have so much other school work to do that I wouldn't really have any extra time to study for the Greek test. I'm just trying to get by in that class at this point. I'll be glad when it's over...I think next year I'll take Hebrew. We'll see.

Speaking of schools I should hear from Yale a week from tomorrow. I'm a little stressed about that...fears that I won't get in, that I was over-confident, etc. Hopefully they will be unfounded fears. We'll see. I'll let you know something once I know something...but pray hard for good news.

On a completely unrelated note, my top dresser drawer broke last night (the underwear drawer, of course). The bottom, which is just a thin piece of wood, had come completely un-nailed form the actual drawer, so basically the bottom out. I tried to renail the whole thing, but I couldn't get the drawer out of the larger frame (I don't even remember how we put the thing together last year) so now the wood is duct-taped to the rest of the drawer. Classy, I know. But I'll just get a new one whenever I move into my place next year.

Ummm...yeah. I should probably start doing some reading, and working on Greek (which makes my stomach hurt just to think about). Peace, y'all.
