Overwhelmed but goal-oriented (sort of)

It's the week before the week before finals, and I'm just about swamped.  It looks like this is true for everyone around campus.  Projects and papers.  Those are the words I hear twenty times a day every day this week.  I'm in the same boat, and it's getting kind of stressful but kind of exciting at the same time.  I have made it a game with myself to get things done this week so I can go to a concert in Chicago this weekend.  The show is Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros.  I only started listening to them a few days ago, but I can't get enough.  The get a lot of their influence from 60's and 70's folk singers and rockers, and it shows.  These somewhat hippy-clad musicians are a 10-12 piece band that fills the usually tiny stage they occupy with groovy tunes and moves.  Tickets are about $40 (I don't have one yet), and then I must factor in gas money, food, and recreational expenses.  Study up and have a hell of a weekend folks.  It's gettin' down to the grind!

Cheers
