I FINALLY got back my papers from my Obama class that I handed in about a month ago. I got all of the points for the essay test and an 18/20 on the cultural interview presentation and paper. Which puts me at a 95 in that class. I'm psyched. As much as the class sucks to go to, its an easy class.
I didn't do as well as I hoped for on my last psych test. Still, it was the best that I had done on any of the tests in that class. Sadly, my grade is still only a 63 in there. But I have hope! We have 1? or 2? more tests left in this class + 5 percent for attendance which I have no problem with and 5 percent for research participation which I just did through internet surveys within an hr and a half. Also, If I need it, my professor said he could help me out with my grade if I need it, as long as I keep showing improvement. And he curves the grades at the end of the semester. I almost have hopes of passing this class with if not a B, then at least a C. Which at this point, I would be psyched for either of those.
But in other news, Allison and her roommate are coming tomorrow for a Concert! Cute is What We Aim For and Secondhand Serenade! I've been getting ready for SS all week, listening to their cd, which I love. Wonder if it would be bad to let them hang out in the crowd by the stage, getting squished by 12 yr olds, and me just hang out in the back. I hated being up there at the last concert. It was to tight and people were touching me. UGH. I might do that actually. Esp. since Allison will have her roommate with her. Something to think about....
P.S. Sooooo Sad that I can't go to hockey tomorrow! And it WOULD be Michigan State! :(

Concert
Tonight, Allison and I went to the Metro Station concert. Their opening bands were Cash Cash, A White Tie Affair, and Tyga. The first two were pretty good and the boys were pretty. The second....was a rapper. We didn't know this. And it basically enforced our not listening to rap. I felt like I was on MTV. I never thought I would go to rap concert and then I inadvertently did. It was highly entertaining though. He did an Obama song with a dude walking around with an Obama mask on because he was excited that he voted for the first time. It was hilarious. Loved it.
Metro Station was very....boy bandish. They weren't very good. At all really. They were okay. I definitely don't dig them though. The concert in general was very high school. I felt old. A 19-year-old should not feel old. The concert basically consisted of emo kids and kids who were so young that their parents took them to it. I never thought I would be excited for a concert to be over but I was. Walking out, just outside the door, Metro Station actually walked right past us. I could have jumped them. That is, If I were actually attracted to them. But yeah, I don't think this concert was worth the money, even though it was only $16.
I was pissed though! Hockey seems like it was a good game tonight and we won! There was even a good fight that I missed! :( Better be a fight next week, that's all I have to say!

Hockey!
Last night was the first hockey game in two weeks. It was exciting. The basically sucked and we lost. But the turnout for the game was amazing. The student section was pretty much full. It was one of those times when I really appreciated being at UNO because the school spirit was so strong. The bullpen and the red army cheers were so loud it was all I could here and when people got excited, I basically just sat back and watched people. It's fun to see people get into things like that and really come together as a school. It was fun.
After the game, we went to Old Chicago as usual and then Cassy and I came back to my apartment and she dyed my hair. I'm pretty excited about it. It's a natural looking reddish brown. Quite a bit darker, I think, but I really like it.
No hockey for me tonight. :( But I am going to a concert with Allison tonight instead. It's Metrostation. We'll see how that goes. Should be fun though, even I don't love the band.

Random Thought
It's a lot easier to keep yourself guarded than letting people get close to you. Letting people in sets you up for getting hurt.
My New Blog!
My sister has mentioned to me that I should get a blog. I don't like to write, but figured it would be a good way to update people on my life and get my thoughts out at the same time. So here it is.
