I'm Bored, I'm Bored, I Don't Know What To Do

Happy No Test Week!  So school is about to finish up for the semester and we are into the last week before Finals, woot!  However, this also translates into a week of boredom because we have no homework along with no tests.  But, don't worry, I am finding things to do.  

This last weekend I went to Olive Garden for the first time, and have decided this may be my new favorite restaurant.  Their salad and breadsticks are awesome!... and the main courses are pretty good too :) I also went to Moonlight Serenade at Davis High, another exciting thing.  If you've never been to Moonlight Serenade you are missing out, of all my band memories, serving at Moonlight is definitely one of the top ones, which if I can have that much fun serving at it, somebody going to it to eat and dance will definitely have a fun time.  After all that excitement over the weekend I came back to school (and sun!) and buckled down to finish the whole 1 assignment I had due this week.  Now I am officially finished with all schoolwork other than finals, so I have had plenty of time to do other things, such as sit around and think about how bored I was.  That made me think of all the stuff I wanted to be doing at the moment which made me think of all the stuff that I've learned to do since coming up to USU, so I decided to make a list of new skills I've learned at college (although not necessarily in a classroom): 
1. How to play the guitar.  My song repertoire now consists of "Here Comes the Sun" by the Beatles (I can play the full song even (: ), "Classical Gas" (Only about 2 lines on this one), "Banana Pancakes" by Jack Johnson (Only like 1 line, but still), "Breakdown" by Jack Johnson (Pretty much the whole song on this), and "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" (Whole song, woot!).  Sweet, huh?  Maybe I should join a band :) 
2. How to make an html website.  Haven't tried it yet but I do know how :)  
3. How to use C++.  Not very well however.  
4. How to longboard.  Someday I am going to get me one and ride it to school to show how cool I am, haha! :) 
5. *How to talk in ASL.  ("They're communicating!") 
6. How to work a Macbook, I'm a total expert now... sort of.  
7. How to cook scones and wontons.  (I put these together cause they are pretty much the same concept, just wontons have stuff in them) 
8. How to make a bowl out of a vinyl record.
9. How to build a circuit.

Well, that's all I could think of right now, I bet there's more.  The one's with the * by them are one's I learned in a class, everything else I learned from a friend or on my own.  So from the looks of things I've had a very productive first 2 semesters :) Anyway, wow, this feels like a really long post.  Probably because I'm trying to catch up on everything since I last wrote, and then I thought of these other things that I wanted to put on, and so it's just going to have to be long.  But, since I am now out of things to write (other than telling you about how I painted my toenails or how I got sunburned from sitting out in the sun) I'll just end here. :) Hopefully one of these times me and Kajsa will get some pictures put up on this thing, but for the moment my camera's battery is dead and I don't know what's up with Kajsa, so just be patient.  :)
