ONE WEEK!!

yoyoyo!!
i just got back from a lecture called "creation vs. evolution." it was pretty good. i had to go to it because i have signed up to be an usher at the IU auditorium (that way, i can see free shows! yay!). everything with school has been going pretty well. i am done with my first english essay (i only have to write one for each semester- wow! isnt that light? i guess the work load is compensated with all of the reading i have to to... grrr....) and i just had my first math test. it might not have been a good sign when the people around me all got the same, different answers than i got. hmm... i am counting down the days until i go home for homecoming. dad will be coming to IU to take me and my friends out to dinner in exactly ONE WEEK! i have been counting this down since last august- and now its finally coming up! im so excited!!! i cant wait to see everyone at the football game- SOOO many people that i have talked to are coming home for it. i didnt know that coming back for homecoming was such a big deal for graduated students! honestly, i dont think that i would be coming back if i didnt have to follow that stupid tradition of giving away the crown (although, i guess i should be grateful since it IS giving me a way to go home :) my weekend is going to be so packed. im going to try to cram in so many things, i hope there are enough hours in the day. this weekend, there are two major events that i am hoping to go to: 1. a persimon (sp.) festival. have you ever heard of a "persimon?" its some kind of weird fruit that you can make ice cream and pudding out of- im told it delicious! well, i have never been to a festival completely devoted to a fruit- so im DEF going and 2. the lotus festival- its a street festival full of different bands all day with artists and food. they both sound pretty fun to me. hope everyone's week is great- i will see some of you homecoming weekend! eeee!! ciao all
