Got home from Des Moine monday night. Have since written 2 paper (a 6 and a 4 page paper), and will be cramming for an exam tonight that I sit for tomorrow. 2 more months of college, then I'm done. Argh, I have sooooo little drive to do any work.

One of my friends just started dating the biggest tool I know (not just among my friends, that I know in any fashion.) Any my ex and current good friend is now dating my roommate, cuz THATS not awkward at all. -__-

Des Moine was a good time. Did a good amount of drinking. Got to hang out with some of my close friends I don't see too often. I got to ref the 16 of CMF which was pretty awesome. GOOD fencing at that level.
Sorry for the boring blog entry. I promise i'll make it more interesting next time...
