Tired no more

Well, it was really nice to be able to sleep in today. I havn't gotten very much sleep for the past week it seems, and today is the first day in a while that I have gotten more than 7 hours of sleep. Most of the days were spent up late working on a paper or studying.

Yesterday, I woke up early to participate in Immersion Day, a day when all the Catechetics majors get together and listen to talks from excellent speakers from all over the US. I went to the talks on teaching high school, and they were very good. Overall, the experience was rewarding.

Later in the evening, I watched The Mummy with my lovely girlfriend Laura. It was a pretty sweet movie. I loved the balance between suspense and anti-suspense which insured that all of the cursed people would die, but which took about half an hour. Special effects were amazing and the story was well written and acted. It was one of the best action movies I have seen in a while. The sets in the movie are awesome, and I really felt like all of the scenery was believable.

My roomate has been gone all weekend, leaving me with ample opportunities to hang out with Laura. We played an old-school game, Mickey's World of Illusion, in which we worked together to defeat the forces of evil. We finally beat it today, which was so very exciting. This was the first time that Laura had beaten a full length video game! She is now addited. She proceeded to try out Aladin, another favorite.

Well, that's all for this post, untill next time- you stay classy, world...
