School is over for the year, and I miss it. I love all of the people from McCoy like a family, because that is really what they have been to me for the past year. Well, 90% of them are moving to the Scholars LLC next year, so we will still be together (I have decided to go there instead of to Theta Chi). The funny thing was that we really didn't start doing fun stuff until the last week of school, when there were Halo Tourneys almost daily, and even a run down to the new arboretum to scare two of our hall mates who were "camping" together. The most depressing part was seeing all of the rooms empty out Friday and Saturday. Whenever I saw a bare bed, I knew that the person that lived there was officially leaving for the summer, and the room I was seeing was no longer theirs. The part that really sucked was that I was in the tower until 11am on Saturday, so I saw almost everyone leave.
Looking back on the year, one thing that makes me laugh is how much I changed/ manipulated/ poisoned/ corrupted Chris. Yes... that roommate of mine who seemed so nice and polite really can be pushed to show his dark underbelly. Like, did you know that on the right occasion that Chris can almost compete with my flatulence? Not only that, but when I was considering going to Theta Chi, Chris was seriously considering joining SigEp. We both dropped the idea though. But I can be a good influence as well, like when I decided to go on a mission trip to Mexico, I somehow convinced Chris to go on the trip as well. Danielle went way more in depth with the whole thing on her blog because she has more "insider" sources on the whole thing. Makes me fell all warm and fuzzy inside to know that I had that much influence on Chris all year. :D
But now I am back in Boise, and I have just been chilling all week. I got my grades back and I have a 3.44 GPA, which I am semi-happy with. I emailed my physics teacher to find out how close I was to an A, and it turns out that I got an 85% on the final test (which blew my mind), which leaves me with an 86% in the class. The cut off for an A is an 87.5% and that pisses me off. Sigh... but live goes on.
I am so excited to go to Alaska next week though because I will get to see a whole new part of the world, doing the work of God, camping all summer, and... oh yeah... seeing AMARIS! And her friends too. I will be doing the camp from May 30-August 7, and I will get every Saturday at noon through Sunday evening off... and Amaris said that she will come get me sometimes! Yeah... this summer will rock. Seriously.
Then I will come back for a week, go to Rock the Canyon, go to school early to train for my ITS job, and move into the super double with Dan so that we can have a year of Madden. Oh yeah... this is what life is meant to be like.
