Sleep is Overrated...?

To say it's been a busy week would be a bit of an understatement, but who really needs sleep right? There is far too much to accomplish and too much fun to be had to waste time sleeping. Although I am sure I will feel differently later tonight. Tonight MSUIRO (Michigan State International Relations Organization) is leaving for our first conference of the year. We embark on our 12+ hour caravan ready to take NYC by storm while we attend Columbia's CMUNNY. It's the first time we've participated in this conference but we have high hopes with some awesome committees and positions.

However, the fun and games of this weekend can only be enjoyed after taking care of all the details that come with missing class and losing a whole weekend in which to accomplish anything school related. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why this last week has entailed late nights, early mornings and lots of yawns in-between (along with ample amounts of caffeine.) My eternal checklist has only just started to disappear for the time being. I checked two major exams off the list as well as over 200 pages of reading! But, I visited the Study Abroad Fair and am really looking forward to a summer spent abroad in 2012. You'll probably hear more about that soon. Also, I got to help hire an amazing staff for MSUMUN XII (the 12 hours of interviewing will be well worth it come March)!

Oh and in case you didn't hear, MSU beat OSU and in other football news, the combat gear has been a huge hit across campus. I am super jealous of my roommate's new hoodie and gloves! ...So despite sleep deprivation, in reality the week wasn't all that bad. Sure I know there will be a growing to-do list awaiting me when I return to East Lansing Monday, but if it means I'm back in East Lansing and am enjoying this beautiful campus, it's all worth it. Can't wait to report back on news from NYC. Wish us luck!
