House Elections, exams and more

This has been one crazy wild week. I have my final exam for human anatomy coming up, which may make or break my necessary 3.7 gpa so I really need to start studying for that. As well I have my final kin paper due soon, but at least I have a nice rough draft of that finished, and a whole week early. That being said it really is a rough draft and I would most definitely not receive near full marks with what I have finished, but my prof s reading it over now, so hopefully he will have some suggestions on how to fix it. I also just finished a bio presentation yesterday, don't think I did a very good job, and was most likely way too short, but hey, at least it's over! I am also curling upwards of six or seven hours a week and coaching for five or six on top of that. It is a blast though, I love my Special Olympians and my little rocks crews. Highlights of my week.

To top everything off, as if I didn't have enough I should be doing this week, I have been procrastinating to the finest. We are having house elections again and yours truly is running for charity rep. This means I need to campaign, make posters, and write a speech. Great reasons to not do any homework eh? Too bad my profs won't buy it when I fail my final anatomy test or pass in a subpar paper.

This election has been crazy stressful as well. I was back and forth on whether I wanted to run, not because I didn't want to be charity rep, but because I hate the election process in general. I would much rather submit an application for something instead of this whole campaign process and voting.I hate the feeling of being judged everytime you talk to someone because you are running for a position. I am also dreading my speech tomorrow night, not because I don't like public speaking, I actually don't mind it at all, but more so because I hate talking about myself in front of a crowd of people I know and know they are all listening to see if I will make a solid candidate or not. Constant judgement and I do not get along.

When I started running I was going with the mindset that I would love to be charity rep, but wouldn't be too torn up if I lost. Now that I'm into it more I really want to win. Like really bad. Don't get me wrong, I love my competitor and know she would make a worthy charity rep, but I want this more than I want most things. I would honestly be so pumped if I did win.

Anyway this post is already much longer than planned, so I am going to actually play attention for the last few moments of class now.

Later
