I really thought that October was going to kill me. There was just so much going on between every weekend, all the school work during the week, the Delta Gamma stuff added on top of it. It has been seriously crazy. I really don't know where to start. I don't want to go through every single event or thing that I did, but its probably still important to hit you with the highlights. I mean I wasn't gone every weekend for nothing. In order (to the best of my knowledge) Alena's reception: successful addendum and adorable present, Olivia's installation: successful job as installing officer, Miss Oregon Job's Daughters Pageant: successful (ish) remarks, I felt super bad because I didn't have a gift, but it all worked out okay, My reception: successful speech, lots of presents, friends there, video recording, just all around madness, Grand Initiation: roughly 3 or 4 mistakes short of being perfect, I'll try harder in March, I pushed myself this time, but midterms just didn't help anything, then the great rummage weekend which was like a marathon, but the good news is almost all of Alena's Grand Officer Scrapbook is done. Then the last weekend of October was volunteering at the convention, volunteering at the Golden Harvest Dinner and then Halloween found me doing homework.
I'm sure I'm repeating myself at this point as I've been writing this blog in shifts but I'm determined to get it done. The moral of the story is October was ridiculous and although November will be slightly better, I want to get through next week because I don't think anything will be quite as much of a ridiculous combo as trying to deal with the pairing of I week and homework because there really is something going on every night Sunday through Thursday. If I don't get as much of my homework done as possible this weekend, then I will be staying up late and it will be a ridiculously terrible week, with the obvious positives of the fact that its I week.
So for now I should get sleep, it is quickly becoming a rare commodity in my life.
