Christmas break has been quite enjoyable so far. I spend a lot of time by myself, but after spending all semester running from one thing and one person to the next (which was all well and good) it's nice to have a good chunk of alone time.
Like usual on breaks, I'm sick. I have the nastiest cold I've ever had; I feel lethargic and sleepy and my chest feels heavy because I'm so congested. So, today might be similiar to yesterday: watch a movie, take a nap, eat dinner, watch another movie, go to bed. All I really want is a hug from Trevor right now, but he's three hours away. It's still nice to imagine being held close by him.
Anyway, yesterday was exciting for me because I journeyed to Erie Insurance with my Dad to get car insurance. Shortly after I return to campus after break, I'll be receiving the greatest Christmas present ever: a car. People from my church down there heard that I needed one, and ended up being able to provide for that need. It will definately make driving to my student teaching placement a lot easier, and more convienent to visit Trevor. Yay :) I am so grateful for this. I don't deserve it, by far, but here it is.
I've gotten a lot of things I don't deserve this year. Getting a car for free is not even the biggest one.
It seems like this year has been a time of thanks. I'm looking forward to the spring semester, but I'm also slightly scared. I know it's going to be a whirlwind of work, up-and-down emotions, decisions, excitement, and tiredness.
Well, now it's time to go rest. That's what break is for, right? I wish that I was working, but it wouldn't have been possible with the transportation situation. No worries, though. This is my last break of my college career.....wow.
