Day of Dancing!

So I realize its been a while since I've updated, but really, theres not a whole lot to tell. Its been a lot of homework, school, sleep and just a few other things scattered between. One more week of school left and its getting kind of intense. Luckily I only have two finals left and one is a take home. The only problem with the take home is that it will probably end up being six pages again....not double spaced. I guess thats what I get for wanting to go to college. :) And I'm tryin to learn the last chapter of Español which is proving to be muy deficil porque tenemos solo tres días a aprender todo de la capitulo! (we only had 3 days to learn all of the chapter). Usually we have a week and a half... but since our semesters are so short, they had to cram the last chapter in 3 days before the final! So thats alllll kinds of fun! Its a good thing for me that I have a spanish speaking novio to help me.
So about the title. I was in a beginning social dance class this semester and today we had our final event thing. Two actually. The first was a dance competition where you could choose to do either waltz or cha cha. I did the cha cha and out of maybe 100 couples, my partner and I got 4th place!!!! I was surprised. I knew we were pretty good but I didn't expect to get past the second round. So imagine my surprise when we get to the top 8! Then I don't work well under pressure so I messed up a step. After that, I thought for sure we'd only get 8th, but we got 4th!!!! I still delightfully surprised! Then I came home and did homework for a while and went back to another dance thing where we had groups that we had to perform in. I did the waltz and then stayed there to dance a while. Its been a fun semester of dancing and I really hope to have another dance class next semester.
Also, it looks like I'm going to have an internship this fall and also looks like I'll be going back to Jackson this next winter. Yay! lol.
Um... I think thats about the extent of the excitement in my life. Soon enough I shall be back home and staying with Eleasha and Brad for seven weeks. Yay for me! maybe not for them... lol. We shall see. Hopefully they wont hate me by the time I leave.
