Well, it’s already May, and with May comes a few things that I’m excited, and not so excited for. it seems like this whole year has just flown by, and I can’t believe that in less than two weeks I’ll be done with my junior year. It’s *cue Britney voice* craaaaaaaazy. So what’s on the agenda for this month?

Lots of books, glad that paper's done!

End of classes: Actually, this already happened, but I’m gonna mention it anyway. Classes ended this past Friday, and all my classes managed to wrap up pretty well. And, I did manage to make it to more classes than last semester (I got sick last semester, and thus, my grades suffered a lil bit), so thats always a plus. And I was really interested in my classes this semester, except for a few requirements. But I made the most of it, and decided to just suck it up. And it paid off. My grades are (hopefully) considerably better, and I had fun at the same time. Honestly, It’s sad to see the semester almost over, but I am ready for whatever it brings senior year.

My Birthday: I’m finally turning 21! It seriously feels like just yesterday that I turned 20, and now I’m finally gonna be 21. It’s nice, and I can’t wait to celebrate it with my friends when I go back home. In fact, I can’t wait for the summer either. Even though I doubt that any of my internship applications will go through, I’m gonna have a blast, and I know it. It might just consist of working as a frycook, but you have no idea how fun that is until you try it.

Our blimp stabilizes itself!

Finals: So, luckily, I technically only have 2 finals, but that means that all the rest are final projects or papers. One’s already out of the way, and I wrote a really interesting paper on HIV/AIDS in Brazil. It was really eye opening to see how much of an issue it is, considering how much Brazil is growing and becoming more of a major country in the world. Other than that, one of my final projects is just a larger problem set, which is nice. And then I finally have a project for my mechatronics course, which I’ve been working on for the past two months. That project is an autonomous blimp, which is really interesting, and a lot harder than it seems.

New Apartment: And last but not least, I’m moving! So, my current roommates are all graduating or have already graduated, so next year I’m living with JHU_Cate and her current roommate Amanda. We’ve secured a really nice apartment, so at the end of the month we’re moving over. It’s refreshing, a change of pace. Just a nice change for my last year. Sometimes you just need a clean slate, you know?

But yeah, it’s gonna be a busy month to say the least. Oh, and did I mention I’m contemplating trying out for RuPaul’s Drag Race? SICKENING!
