Outside Event

I went to Jill McCorkle's reading of "Surrender." For some reason things were not going very well for me that day. I was not in a good mood and it did not help anything when I arrived late to this event. I came in and I had no idea what she was talking about. She seemed as if she was a bit nervous. She spoke in a monotonous voice. The story did not keep me very interested. A part of the story was actually quite outrageous and a little over the edge. I just remember wishing I was somewhere else the whole time. I definately did not want to be there any longer than I had to be.

Outside Event

A few Sundays ago, I went to Saint Benedict at Auburndale to attend a play by the name of "Dirty Rotten Scoundrols." Coming into the autorium, I had no idea what to expect. I did not know anything about the play, what it was or what it was about. The play was about a man tricking a girl into giving him money. The man's name was Lawerence. He meets another guy by the name of Freddy who is also fond of tricking women out of their money. The two clash. They decide that only one can stay in the town. They set up a competition between themselves that the first one to trick a woman out of 50000 gets to stay. It was a great play.

I went to the Otherlands coffee shop at 6:30 one night to listen to this lady read her story. Right away, I realized that this lady had an annoying voice. I found out that it was the University of Memphis's creative writing group that always put on the event. The lady was really bad at presenting and did not keep me interested very long at all. She spent a lot of time on a lot of boring deals. I could not focus long enough to even get what the story was about. I felt uncomfortable there like I did the first time I was there. I guess I just dont like the atmosphere there.

Exam Week

Exam week has been really hectic. I cannot wait until it is all over. Right now I am up at two in the morning still studying away. I never thought that college final week would be this hard but it turns out I was wrong. It will all be worth it when Christmas break comes along this Friday. I have taken a Lab Final. Tuesday, I have to turn in my eight page paper and take a psychology exam. Wednesday, I have an anthropology exam. Thursday, I have a Freshman Seminar exam. Finally on Friday, I have my chemistry final. Kill me.
