Question QUESTIONS OF THE WEEK!!! [02-24-02]

Hi all. 6 weeks is finally over, and you can finally relax a bit before competition. This should be the first weekend this year you can actually relax without too much stress... With that in mind, here is the question of the week...

Questions 02/24/02: How did you spend your first weekend without FIRST?

Well, I will start with what I did... I left home about 11am, and went back home around 11pm... and all I did was sat inside a movie threater and watched three movies... No AIM chat with any FIRSTers, or posting on forums... It was a good day...

First FIRST-free weekend

Sleeping for twelve hours on both Saturday and Sunday, doing homework (Who has time for that during the building phase?) and jogging (finally again).
Somehow I am missing the building phase, it is as if something is missing - just that it definetely is not time.

Sleep, sleep, sleep, and then, for a change of pace, I took a nap.

Hmm....lets think...what did I do? I worked...cleaned my house and my mom came home (she's been away for 6 months). I slept some and on sunday I worked and my sisters came over to welcome her home. I was supposed to watch a movie with Michael sometime in there...perhaps on Tuesday, since I *won't* be at robotics. But, I did catch on a lil bit of much needed sleep. Oh, and studying for midterms. Whoopee.

A little different

Well, I tried to find a job. Then I slept. Then I applied for a job. Then I slept.

In the up side, I got the job. Now I can move out of Dad's house! Yay!

Then I searched for apartments. Then I slept. You get the idea.

Laterz.

At first I relaxed... Watched movies, went to a concert, went bowling, DDR for long hours saturday night. Then Sunday I paid for it and had to do insane amounts of schoolwork.

Overall a relaxing weekend. No clue why I am up at 1:30 am on Tuesday morning reading chief delphi when I should be sleeping OR studying for an exam I have tomorrow... hmm...

I fell asleep and actually didn't have to wake up. I then spent time with the few pleasures that weren't FIRST-related. Finding funny quotes, writing, and wasting time on the Internet. Ah the simple joys of life.
