Back to School!

It definitely feels like I have been at school for longer than a 
week though I have not. My break was a lot fun but I wish it 
were longer, ha-ha; but I am sure everyone wishes 

it were. It was an eventful break. I went to the zoo with my 'little' brother Jacori and he came over to play some rock band before I left for school, which was a lot of fun. Interestingly enough the last Friday of my break my brother broke his tibia (shin) playing in a soccer game and I was the only one of my family to be there. He was a trooper even though he was in a lot of pain. He was able to come home after we had been in the hospital practically the whole night. His friends came over and even made him some lunch and later brought him dinner, too. I think everyone catering to him started to spoil him. I left Sunday to go back to Tulane so I said my goodbyes to my family and wished them luck with the new gimp. Gaines later went to the doctor on Monday and found out that he was going to have surgery and they were going to stick a rod in his leg to support his shin...ouch! He took a little longer than expected in recovery but he is now at home, which is a relief. With that said the first week of school has been an adjustment, fun but an adjustment after being a free to do whatever during the Christmas break. My classes are looking good for this semester and it looks like they will be a lot of fun. This morning I woke up and went to practice early so I could eat lunch with a prospective student; but immediately after that I took a look nap, which was probably indicative of the long week that I had.
