What an exhausting week!!!  You know the feeling when your eyes are so heavy because you haven’t slept in two days; well that was pretty much all the interior design students this week.  You come to class with energy drinks and a lot of candy with sugar in it.  I am beginning to think that energy drink and sugar no longer affect me!!!  You know it’s the end of the semester in the art building when everyone is there until very early hours in the morning.  When we are in the art building all night there are always other students in there with you.  Usually we bring movies in and turn those on while we do our work (helps us stay awake!)  We also have a lot of fun, usually when we get slap happy we start singing or dancing around and that helps our energy levels.  But in the end we get the projects done and we also become closer friends in the process.  We always look out for each other!!  Also this week I received the Merit Scholarship Award for Project EXCEL, that was very exciting and I was very honored to receive that award.  I truly have worked so hard my past 3 years at the Mount and it can only get better!!!
