Ok, so a month break was long enough...

I'm back, and hopefully for good this time. I'll try and piece together the last month as best I can and quickly at that.

• Thanksgiving break was fine, it went by really quickly. Family at our house this year, cousin and I got boozed up before dinner, fell asleep soon after due to the damn tryptiphan or whatever. I ended up doing nothing productive but slept in till noon or later every morning. Well deserved sleep
• The following week was really busy; only two weeks of classes till finals. I actually started some "study-organizing" to prepare for finals early. I think it helped.
• Saturday the 3rd was the DrunkShoe Christmas Party. It was a huge success! We bought two punch bowls, two liters of hawaiian punch, four quarts of Southern Comfort Egg Nog, a fifth of bacardi, a fifth of lady bligh, and a fifth of jim beam. Add some Goose Island Christmas Ale and a case of natty and it was a guaranteed success.
• Sunday was last chapter meeting of the semester. We also listened to a speech by Dr. John Altman, a distinguished alumnus of Miami and a member of my father's fratnerity: Delta Tau Delta. He spoke to us on many issues including entrepenurship, stewardship, and the appreciation for greek life. It was very informative and he also showed us the dvd of the For Love and Honor campaign drive for Miami.
• Tuesday our year end ARP project for accounting was due. It sucked. I still got a 97.
• Wednesday was the start of a great weekend. We had a gift exchange at the house and I ended up with a bottle of Dickel. That was fun. After that, we all headed up to see Jason Aldean at Brick Street. It was a fun concert, great setlist, and he played some Skynyrd.
• Thursday was my last ACC and Econ class of the semester! It also was one of the worst days of the semester as I hit a stressed out moment about exams, flipped my lid when I found out that I didn't have to take the final in Geography but ended up taking it anyway because I missed the class in which it was announced, and I lost my phone.
• Friday I studied for a little while and then watched some of Elf at Katie's place.
• Saturday I went home to study and get a temp demo phone.
• Sunday I started studying full time at the library
• Monday (12/12) was a full study day as I had no exams till Tuesday
• Tuesday was study and Econ final
• Wednesday was hell day: I had Geo, MIS, and ACC exams.
• Thursday was a day to organize and study Music.
• Friday I took my Music exam and helped katie move out of her apt.
• Saturday I headed home...

This week had been pretty uneventful. I've worked on a few projects around the house, including framing a bunch of dave matthews band and o.a.r. posters sitting around my room. I also have helped my mom send out christmas cards and i've planned my trip to NYC in three weeks.

I'm so psyched to see O.A.R. live at Madison Square Garden! I have front row tickets which should just make this show unbelievable...I can't believe i'm flying into NYC on a saturday morning and leaving on a sunday afternoon just for one show.

Tonight (friday) is our family christmas on my mom's side. More updates after I re-watch conan.
