Ah... election day is over, and guess what? The earth is still standing, although I heard plenty of predictions to the contrary beforehand (and melodrama afterwards). Granted, the choice of President of the United States is pretty important, but America is a good country and a strong one, it would take more than four years under a lousy president to bring everything crashing down. And, again despite what people make it sound like, neither of the canidates would have been that horrible - they wouldn't have made it this far if they were. Disagree with them on issues, methods, choices, even personalities if you must, but to call either 'evil' or 'stupid' or anything else that you might hear a five year old say during a fight is just ridiculous, grow up people! Ok, that's enough political commentary from me.

Next, I recently booked my tickets to go see Robbie over winter break, I'm so excited!! It'll be great to see him again, and I'm really looking forward to exploring his island, and having some relaxation time. This semester is going fairly well, but it's a lot of work... When things are going well (like today, thankfully), I really enjoy it, but when my homework makes no sense and the tests are flying fast and furious, I wish I could quit. Other good news, I had a fun weekend, went dress shopping with Julia and her mom, aunt, and grandmother. It was a good day, especially since she finally picked out her dress! Pretty exciting stuff, let me tell ya. Working at the ARC is still going well, this is probably the most fun job I've ever had.. except the two days or so before each 308 exam :P. I really don't remember how to do that stuff! But for the most part I'm impressing myself with how much I remember and manage to figure out. I hope that I'm helping some of the students to understand better, although it can be hard to tell, for the most part you just have to work through the stuff yourself I guess, but I'm glad I can be there to help them get unstuck. One of the students who comes in semi-regularly for Circuits 1 help recently got 100% on his test, I'm so proud! :)
