This week will be hectic and relaxing at the same time. On the bright side, 2 of my classes this week have been canceled, but tomorrow morning I get to vote for the first time ever and I should be excited, right? What an awful first election to vote in. Hillary Clinton, who would be the first female president, or Donald Trump, who has no political background in the slightest. How does one pick between these? Not to mention that if I share my political beliefs on campus, chances are I'd get metaphorically crucified, and literally shunned, at my school. Politics is the one topic I can't stand talking about in the slightest, and yet here I am talking about it. Tomorrow beginning at 5:30 pm, PPU is having an entirely student-run live election night show up until the results are announced very late at night, so it'll be a very long day to say the least, and I'm just crew for the show. I couldn't even imagine being one of the producers.

Speaking of producers, my best friend on campus is Josh Croup, and he is basically the executive producer of the election show, bless his soul. He is so involved in everything communications related on campus, so I deemed him the 'King of Comm.' Every day he has at least 10,000 things to accomplish, so I learned quickly that I shouldn't complain, and rightfully so. He went to the same high school as I did too, so he's been key in helping me get involved and known more around campus. He'll be mentioned in a lot of my posts on here I'm sure. 

Today was super relaxing though, but I've felt super tired for the entirety of it. I woke up early and went to class, turned in a paper, went to the library for my second (and last) class of the day, but we got out an hour early, which means my day ended at 11:50 am. The remainder was spent watching Grey's Anatomy and coloring in Jess & Alyssa's room, two soccer players that live on my floor that Meghan and I have become pretty good friends with. (I'm writing this from their dorm room floor actually.) 

I guess today's post was just to get some things off of my mind, but this is really refreshing. I love this. Until next time, though...

Have a fantastic night.
