The end has no end

The Arctic cold front couldn't of come at a better time. All week San Diego has been experiencing trickles of rain and refrigerator like temperatures. These conditions have stimulated some sort of study hormone that enabled me to be cooped up in my room with a fat stack of books. Better yet in a few days finals start! I need to do fairly well on all of them so temporary hermit mode is in effect. However this is a bit of an exaggeration because I still did fun things this week! Because I have a beaucoup amount of meals left on my meal plan, I have been inviting my family and friends to have dinner with me all week. The dreaded meal plan has been forcing my friends and I to eat at the same old SLP for the past few weeks. Where are our culinary freedoms! Anyways, Wednesday was the last Maher RLC for the semester. Father Mike made a giant cauldron of hot chocolate along with the usual order of Domino's pineapple pizza. That combination did not settle well in the stomach. To replace the gospel reading and reflection, we all sang Christmas carols with the acoustic support of a few RLC members. I think we all thought Christmas was the next morning. On Thursday the school hosted the annual Christmas dinner. I think I had four plates of ham, scalloped potatoes, and vegetables. I still have not eaten since that night. On Friday my dormitory was hosting a Neon dance, but I really had the urge to go Christmas shopping. Thus, I spent my Friday night searching for the perfect gifts for my loved ones. Today is Saturday and I am only planning on studying and perhaps catching a movie later tonight. Unfortunately my roommate has been bed ridden due to illness for the past couple days. I'm trying to keep him company and help me out. Oh I forgot to say, the most exciting thing this week is going to be tomorrow. I am going to the Wrex the Halls concert featuring Rise Against, AFI, and 30 Seconds to Mars. That should be my final fun thing to do this semester until finals are over. Alright people, I am signing off.
