With the spring quarter finally winding down to the end, I am looking forward to summer! I have some assignments that are due for my Information Systems class on Friday and Tuesday, but since there is a three day weekend, I should be able to get that second assignment/extra credit done by the deadline without any excuses.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow most of all cuz I get to see my sweetie, David. Haven't seen him since last Friday, but we've been keeping in touch as usual via the phone and instant messenger. But it's gonna be hella cool when he moves down here during the summer, hopefully sometime during June or July. Right now, he is on a mission trying to find a place to stay. After all of the grief that my Mom has been giving me these days, it makes me wonder if I need to get my own space too. I wanted to move out my Junior year anyways, way before all the stuff happenend with my Dad passing and all the drama from the family that came along with that sadness. I'm unsure if I would feel right leaving my Mom in this big house. I guess she thinks now more than ever that I'm going to leave her and never come back. That's not the case, I think that I am ready for my own space now. I just don't want my Mom to suffer because of me wanting my own personal space, and get all of these ideas that I'm leaving and never coming back.

I was thinking that I could move when I gather up enough money. I'm going to give myself until the end of the year, just to see how things go. Besides, I will be working full time for the rest of the year, and basically not spending much time in class after Summer quarter is gone. Exactly, it's more like I won't be spending any time in class during Fall quarter, if I am successful in finding a co-op job for that period of time.
My dream place of work would be at a recording company or maybe at a radio station (if they are willing to pay, I know that some of the radio stations around Cincinnati only have positions where you earn college credit, I can use the college credit, don't get me wrong, but I'm looking to earn and save some money, ya know?). I'm trying to get on somebody's street team or something! To me, promoting music seems kinda fun and interesting all in the same. Well, I do have one place to contact in the city, even if they're not looking for a co-op student, maybe it can be something that I can do on the side while co-oping for some other company, or something to do on the weekends. Mainly I'm looking for the experience, to see if it is really for me, ya know? I thank my boo for the hookup for the promotions team. :) I have to give them a call very soon to see what's up. There's nothing wrong with following a dream, but then again, there is nothing wrong with having a back up plan either.

Like I mentioned earlier, the quarter is winding down. I have my last Spanish test tomorrow before the final exam on June 4th (which is my girl, Charla's birthday!). Also, I have an Information Systems ethics assignment due tomorrow by 5pm. All I have to do for that is edit and shorten the content, and then I am all set on that. Then there is the extra credit that is due on Tuesday, which I am about 45% in the process of finishing. If it wasn't for me recieving two 0's on my lab assignments, I wouldn't have to do this assignment. But I want to see how well I can do on it; I'm afraid that I won't do so well on the final. Sometimes, I just hate taking tests. And speaking of tests, I have to worry about my History final as well. As far as I can see, that is going to be my hardest exam out the four that I have to take. That course involves a lot of memorization and a lot of recopying of the unorganized notes that I take in class, on account of writing so damn fast. Essay exams aren't my favorite anyways. I think I am going to talk to the professor or the TA before June 4th about the best way to prepare for an essay exam. For now, I have to go and get started on studying for this Spanish test tomorrow. Hopefully, it shouldn't be too bad.
