For the third day in a row, by some miraculous happening, I have timidly walked up to the third floor of the library, unsure of whether or not I would find what I was looking for, and have been stunned and delighted to find a "big table" unoccupied. I was unsure today especially because as I walked passed the first and second floor, it seemed that every seat in the house was taken by some intensely studying college student. But, being the conditioned Ashton resident that I am*, with a little faith and hope, I ventured to the top and received my reward with great satisfaction.
Now, I am sitting comfortably (the chairs on the third floor have great back support), overlooking the campus as the rain coming down in sheets pitter patters on the tall windows. The shoot of deep green leaves springing from the tree next to the library (that I spoke of in my last entry) is still deep green, and the rest of the tree is still a brownish-yellow, and I still have to study for finals.
I'm going to study hard for the next few hours, then at 4:30, I am meeting with my USEM group to work on our Christmas medley that we will be presenting on Thursday as our final. Each group has been assigned to arrange a medley of holiday tunes, using our own musical skill, and notating the whole piece. Fortunately, their is a wide variety of instruments my group can play (saxaphone, flute, cello, guitar, piano, mandolin), so it has made working on this final project quite fun, and it really hasn't felt like work at all. AND, the people I was assigned to work with are simply amazing and the creative juices that flow when we're all together are wonderful.
Alright, watch out, Chemistry! I will conquer you!
