End of The Road Beach Party, Studying and First Exam

Last weekend started off with a bang. Thursday was fairly uneventful other than footy training. After training we went back to our place and just hung out. The next day was the finale to our Mexican friend Chico's parties. Before the party we had a great barbecue on the deck of out building. In the place where I am staying on the third floor there is a common area which contains a large tv, a pool table and an outside deck-ish thing. On this deck-ish thing there are some electric barbecues that anybody can use for free! Its such a good idea because barbecues are one of my favorite things in the whole world. Its sweet because you put a little money together, get some beers and some food and then go hang out outside while you cook the food. Its like a really laid back party where you can just hang out and talk with your friends. Anyways, we had about 20 people over to our building and had a barbecue before this great party. Chico's parties seem to get bigger every time. the first one was probably 20 people or so, the next one about 40 and they have just kept on growing until this one was probably over 100 people. I was really excited for this one too because I hadn't really drank for about two weeks so I was ready for it! Anyways, it was a great time with plenty of ridiculous things going on.

On Saturday I started studying for my Structural Mechanics test which took place yesterday. I studied for probably or 5 hours each day after that and I was still feeling pretty nervous. The test was last night at 6 and was to last 3 hours. It was both the longest and most important test of my college career because it was worth 70% of my grade in a class that I was not doing great in. Well I got the test and I was pretty confident because I had seen all the material before. Come to find out 3 hours is apparently not enough time to complete this test for me though. ugh. I left a few answers blank so needless to say I am a little nervous about the results.

Next on my plate is a paper I have due Monday and a Thermodynamics test next Wednesday. and then I am out of here...
