at least the egyptians are happier.

This week has been relatively uneventful. Mostly because I only had class once this week. I am supposed to have it on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, but this week we did not have class on Wednesday because it was Pioneer Day (yes, that exists, and yes, it is a state holiday) and then my professor had to take an emergency trip to Uganda (no big deal or anything) so class was cancelled on Thursday. 

I was actually sad that I only had class once this week. I enjoy going, which sometimes surprises people because it is Comparative Government and Politics. But no class for 6 days means I get to party all night and sleep in late, right? Because that's what the college life is all about, right? That's what it might be like for a lot of people, but I definitely don't fit under that category. I fall into the category with those who watch netflix, work out, hang out at their grandparents house, and go to bed around midnight, only to be up by 7:30 am. Suffice it to say, I have no life.

Okay, I have a life. I just didn't have one this week. And that is okay with me. 

Anyway, right now I should be revising my paper that is due at midnight tonight. It was assigned to us Tuesday, and like any studious college student, I haven't even looked at it since it was handed back to us. So now, instead of fixing it to make it a well-written essay to turn in, I am typing up a blog. And I know my dad will most likely read this, so to justify the further procrastination, I would like to say that writing this is helping my creative juices flow so that I will be able to write an even better paper than if I would have just jumped right into it cold turkey. 

As for the title of this post, it relates to my essay that is based on an article  from the New York Times about the military seizing power in Egypt. The article states how the people are looking forward to the future now that their president has been removed from his position. So what better title do I need than what I am procrastinating writing about? 

That's my life for this week. Next week will be much more exciting. One of my dear friends is getting married, and that is bringing some of my other dear friends to town. And they're staying with me. To say I am excited is an understatement.
