Brother Bear

On Thursday my dear old BrotherBear lands in Rome for 10 days of sibling bonding. From Sunday to Tuesday we'll be on the Amalfi Coast together hitting up Sorrento, Naples, Capri and hopefully Pompei, as well as exploring all that Rome has to offer for the rest of his visit. I'm super excited for him to come, haven't seen him since I was in Hawaii in December, not to mention we've never traveled anywhere together just the two of us, so it will be quite the amazing experience to show him my life and venture other places we've both never been. I've already promised to make him carbonara when I pick him up from the trainstation and he got some euro's at the bank about an hour ago so he's ready too.
Unfortunately this is all at the end of my semester. For those of you that don't speak college language, papers projects and tests. I've worked my butt off the last week, and will continue to until he gets here, but the rest of my semester looks a little something like this:

May 4
Media and Gender Paper due -> not started, original topic didn't work out so I'm in the process of emailing with my professor. great.
Rome Memoir-> Done. Teacher editing, will get edits back tomorrow
Italian-> Oral part of the final exam and quiz

May 5
Music Paper due-> Wrote on Killer Queen by Queen. Need to add a little more, have 7 1/4 pages, supposed to be 8-10. Not a problem, doing well in the class despite the teaching being duller than a butter knife

May 9
Art History Paper Due-> group project. we have a full draft already, just need to format and see if it's too long.

May 11
Writing-> Reading instead of a final
Italian-> Final

May 12
Music Final
Art History Final

May 13
Media and Gender-> have to check in/show up, but no final.

Scary that I can plan out the rest of my semester, but that's that. Going to bed before my on-site class for writing tomorrow, an afternoon of homework and class, a night of homework and then Thursday I'll be crunching to get as much done before Adam's arrival!!
