Hello friends
I don't usually post. So what is new in my life, you ask? Christmas break was wonderful, and long, and much needed, it was so good to be home for so long. I spent it with my family and my best friends and I didn't go to bed before 4 any night with the exception of 2 nights when I had to get back into school mode. So, it's safe to say that it was a lot of fun. I came down with strep throat upon returning to school so that was shitty because I wanted to be healthy when starting out the second semester. Kassi took me to the doctors 2 days in a row and I love her for it and I got my prescriptions and am still taking the pills but I feel 50 zillion times better, oh how miserable I was. This semester will be tough, and very routine. I'm working 5 days a week for the school newspaper, and I have a 6-9 class on wednesdays (yuck) and I just volunteered to take notes for another person who can't for some reason. I really should not, but I want to get on the professor's good side, even though he doesn't give extra credit and probably won't like me any better for doing it, but at least Christi, my roommate, is in the class with me so we can help each other and study together and whatever else. So my schedule is busy, only 15 credits but I think working the same times every day will get very annoying and I used to have time between classes to go to the gym but now I really don't so I have to go after classes and by the time all my classes are over I just want to go home! But it's got to be done, I will just have to let this routine grow on me. Besides all that, I'm still going to try to have fun this semester, but work a lot harder. I did really good last semester but I want to do better, and there's never much to do in Allendale really, so why not just work my butt off and relax on the weekends. Which is what I will probably do a lot more this semester. I feel like my daddy, I took a nap as soon as I got done with class Friday. I am not used to getting up at 7 a.m. 5 days a week! It was glorious, but I am just so tired by the end of the week and don't want to go out or anything. Also, I don't want to go out because everything costs money!! Ugh. I am trying to save as much as possible. I hate bills. Last night though, we had a much needed girls night at Kassi's and it was really fun. Pizza, ice cream, scene it, wine, movies, truth or dare even! haha. Very fun. So there's the school low down. Oh, and I cleaned our house today super duper good but it is still not as homey as I'd like.
Family is good, dad is practically ready to retire, he's been at U of M for like 35 years or something but mom says he can't til we graduate. haha. Kristen is student teaching at a high school about a half an hour away from here. My grandma is still living with us and she is healthy. She has to be for a while, because we played MASH yesterday and Grandma was chosen by fate to be Kristen's maid of honor. Roxy is still as adorable as ever. There's a boy in my life too, not here, at home. It's Grant and I will finally admit it. So when I go home I cuddle with Roxy, Grant if he's lucky, hang with Jessica and other people who are at home, and eat good home cooked food because seriously Kristen doesn't cook anymore and it makes me sad, and we have zero food right now. Meaning, I really need to get home next weekend to have mom grocery shop for us, because you better believe that I'm not spending money on groceries.
I'm going to do some Bio homework on this Saturday evening, and maybe watch Gilmore Girls because I'm completely obsessed.
