Almost Over

I'm genuinely sorry for not staying on top of this.  I miss recounting my days with all of you.. it's almost therapeutic in a way as weird as that is.  I'm starting to freak out for many reasons.  The first being the biggest problem at hand, finals.  In the next 5 school days I have 8 tests and they are not going to be fun but the end is in sight!  The end, however, is extremely bittersweet.  I can't wait to go home and have a break from school not to mention I miss my family but I'm going to miss school.  Maybe not the school part so much but everyone I see almost every day.  I'm not a regular in the downtown area of Champaign or Urbana but I do really like the campus here (I have my favorite spots that most of you know of.)  So while I'm busy freaking out about my tests, I'm also having mid-college crisis.  I'm halfway done and could not be more sad!  If I could I would stay in college forever but who wouldn't want to.  It is all going so fast I just want to sit back and enjoy what I have left.  On Saturday I ran the marathon as a relay team and while it was absolutely brutal (I threw up.. twice..) it was an extremely inspirational experience.  My team (Alyssa, Tyler, Zach, and I) ran it in 3 hours and 42 minutes and placed 8/63 in our division.  We were pretty pumped and all want to run a half marathon now.  We looked into the Rock and Roll one in Chicago but it is $100 because there is a concert every mile.  I'll be taking donations so that I can actually run it (any amount will suffice-thanks in advance.)  Everyone around me at the library is getting up and leaving so I'm gonna take that as a sign that I need to go home and take a shower soon but I've got a busy day so we'll see when that actually happens.  Hope the rest of you can enjoy the sun today and congrats to my mom for starting her job yesterday!  Big day in the Witry house, that's for sure!
