This is the first week in about a month that I haven&#8217;t had a test. This is also the first week all semester that I haven&#8217;t had a Wednesday afternoon class. Since we had our final lab last week, we don&#8217;t have case study either. So instead of being in class, I&#8217;ve caught up on homework, started working ahead, and even caught up on sleep.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve also been enjoying the gorgeous weather we&#8217;ve been having. In fact, I just so happen to have the most awesome Calculus TA ever. Why you ask? Because she let us have class outside.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_375\" style=\"width: 160px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/sarah\/files\/2013\/05\/101_0374.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-375\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-375\" alt=\"Outdoor class on the Pentacrest :)\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.admissions.uiowa.edu\/sarah\/files\/2013\/05\/101_0374-150x150.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-375\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Outdoor class on the Pentacrest \ud83d\ude42<\/p><\/div>\n<p>It was such a nice day and was such an awesome change from being in the same old room. The wind made things a little difficult but it was nothing we couldn&#8217;t deal with. It was also awesome to see the\u00a0jealousy as other students passed us on the way to their boring old classrooms.<\/p>\n<p>OnIowa! Update: Teal&#8217;s the real deal, just so you all know. All the leaders are divided into squads that are given a color. I&#8217;m in teal squad and very loyal to the Teal. Each squad is given the mission of winning their squad points by doing different activities. One such activity is a scavenger hunt where we&#8217;re given clues and we have to find the object\/place and take a picture with it. The catch? We have to have at least 6 squad members in the picture. Do you know how hard it is to coordinate 6 people&#8217;s schedules when it&#8217;s two weeks before finals? Well, we finally got it figured out and a group went out to take pictures.
