What a week!

So this week has almost beat me. First on Monday I was extremely sick and had to get a replacement to produce sports. On Tuesday my teacher in my Lithics class decides to expand the assignment that the class was suppose to have done for Thursday. So instead of an outline on our research projects, it was changed to a 10 page starter on our research. So I had to rush to get the paper portion of the project started... no simple outline anymore. I had to check out several books from the library, I even went to the public library but had no luck. I spent ALL night Tuesday working on it and finally got a little sleep from 6 am-9 am. Wednesday I had to go back to the library for more sources and I sat down and got to work on the paper only taking a break to eat the food my boyfriend brought me. I couldn't work my KOMU.com shift either, so I will have to make that up some other time. Thanks goodness at about 4 am on Wednesday I finished my research methodology for Lithics. However I was not done because I also needed to score my script and practice my sonnet for Vocal Techniques class because Thursday was also final performance day for that class. So at 5:30 am I was able to get to bed. I woke at 10 am and got showered and ready for my Vocal Techniques course at 11 am. I had my performance and I think it went pretty well considering I am the only non-theater major in the class! At 12:15 that class ended and I headed back to my room to get changed into my suit and to grab some grub. I left my house at 1 pm and got to KOMU quickly. I grabbed all my gear; camera, tri-pod and batteries and then was on my way to the Hearnes Center. I had to meet the coach of the gymnastics team at 1:40 pm for an interview for a package I have been working on. The coach actually didn't show until 2 pm. I got the interview though (finally at 2:30) and also an interview with a couple of the girls. I was able to get some b-roll during the practice and then at 3:15 I headed back to my car to get to my Lithics class at 3:30. I needed to get to the Lithics class to turn in my Methodology. After loading all the gear into my car it was only like 3:20 so I was good to get to class on time, all I had to do was drive to CCH and park and walk to class. I could do it. WRONG! As I started to drive away from the Hearnes I didn't even get out of the parking lot when my car puttered, the check battery light came on, and then it died. I tried several times to start it but no luck. I called Micah (my boyfriend) and he was able to find some jumper cables to come help me. First though he got me and dropped me off at class. I had to leave my car dead in the middle in the middle of the Hearnes parking lot. I made it to my Lithics class at 3:50 pm, only 20 minutes late. At least my teacher was cool and didn't take points off for being late. I think he could tell by my suit, sweaty face, and panicked eyes that I had had a bad day! So while in class Micah and his roommate went to jump start my car. When I got out of class at 4:30 they still had not got it started. Sadly, they had to call Triple A to tow it to CCH. The guy with Triple A said it wasn't the battery but either a fuel filter or plug (or something to that nature). In short my car is now dead because fuel is not getting to the engine, but I can't drive it anywhere to go get fixed. In fact, as I sit here typing this I can see my car sadly outside my window. So because my car caused so many problems the hour I thought I would have to eat some grub with Micah was turned into time spent on getting my car here. I ended up eating Mac and cheese which was not enough substance to balance out all the stuff I already had in my stomach. While studying and working through the night I forgot to mention I had consumed 3 coca-colas, 1 big Red Bull, and a Starbucks coffee without any real food. I believe a pop tart was the only food I had found time to scarf down. So anyhow, Micah left at 6 for work, and I had 2 hours until I had to be at the rec. center, so I passed out. I slept for 2 hours and then had to get up to go play basketball. Believe me, I didn't feel physical well enough to play basketball but because I am the Coordinator of Rec. Sports for CCH I was the captain of this team. I had to be there to sign in and also because of the small number of girls I had to play if only to make sure my friends didn't die! So I played and actually, for being sick, tired and starving I didn't do too bad. We lost the game but I had a couple baskets and at least I got a work-out this week since I had not been able to fit one in. After basketball I got back to the house at 10:00 pm and decided it was time to eat. So my friend and I cooked lemon pepper chicken and pasta salad for supper. It was 11:30 pm before we ate but it was worth it. I stayed up a little while sorting out my schedule, watching House, and working on some things for my I-pod group because of the meeting the next day before I hit the hay at 1:00 am. At about 8:00 am this morning however I woke feeling terrible, I don't know if it was the combination of being sick, stressed and tired that did it, but I was sick! I missed a ministry I do, which is going to the hospital to visit with people (I figured if I were sick I didn't need to bring that into the hospital). I pretty much slept all morning and had my alarm set for noon so I could get up and shower and get to my capstone class. I woke at 1:50 pm having somehow managed to have laid on my cellphone to stop it from going off. So I realized I had also missed my capstone meeting. Awesome... what a week. After realizing I had missed the meeting I rushed to my computer to find e-mails from Jennifer Koveleski about the meeting. After answering those I decided to blog...as a way to get all this stuff out of my head, to cope with my crazy week and to also make whoever reads this chuckle to themselves. All in all, it was a crazy busy week BUT I do feel it could have been worse. All I need is a little medicine, some food and a couple days to get myself caught up on sleep and homework. YAY for the weekend!
