Hmm, sorry for never updating about E-days. I'll just give a quick little recap here. It was thoroughly awesome. The ONE weekend where Mines is the place to be. We had a Hawaiian theme "Maui Wow-E-days, Mines is a beach." Fun stuff. The ore cart pull was fun, but very very cold as it was snowing and raining and the wind was blowing. But we still got to hog a lane of Colfax all the way into Denver. ^___^
A friend came down to visit from CSU, so that was great! We all went to the fireworks on Friday. Hehehehehe. Fireworks at Mines are pretty interesting, for sure. An air show and a ground show with dynamite. That's always fun. ^_~ The idea is to make the fireworks as loud as possible. Accomplished, even though a crazy guy got injured trying to set them off. I guess the fuses didn't work, so he had to go out and set them off with a road flare... yeah.
Then there was the Everclear concert. They shouldn't allow short people into concerts for their own safety... I nearly got crushed!! Got too many "You're too little to be here" comments... grr. Not used to the really crazy-type concerts-- I like my Christian rock ones better... ^^'
Saturday was the cardboard boat race. People can actually research and build a cardboard boat for credit in our Sophomore design class here, btw. Crazy people--the water was freezing!! After the race, there were just some other small events. Overall, a great weekend!

Hmm, last week was overwhelming. Welcome back, I guess. 2 tests, a major paper and registration for next year. Joy. I do get to start taking classes for my major, though! Yay! ^^

What else, this weekend is S.O. Being an incredible idiot, I decided to help out with some events. At least I only have B teams. That should be good. Stay far away from the C teams. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE S.O.! It's amazing, and I wish I could have continued in high school. There's just a certain person I shouldn't see for my mental health... and maybe his physical health. (I'm really not violent... just get violent thoughts every once in a while.) ::sigh:: It should be an interesting weekend, to say the least.

Sooo, that wasn't so short of a recap, ne... ^^' I guess I just don't want to do homework. We only have a couple of weeks left, however, we have at least 1 test a week for the rest of the school year. Noooooo! I'm already fried. Yet another reason I haven't been visiting much. Maybe this summer...? Please forgive me!! ::bows::

Everyone, take care! This little community means so much to me. ^^ Thanks for all your support!
Until my brain is not so fried,
