Winter Break!

I am very excited to winter break. All of my high school friends are going to be back from college and I am finally going to take some time off work so I have some time to just be with my friends and not have to worry about much of anything at all. Over break, I am going to continue to work full time at my job as a CNA, and start to prepare myself for next semester. I cant wait to have a month off of school and not have to worry about any deadlines and I wont have much to worry about. I am hopeing that I will catch up on my sleep and do things to relieve all the stress! I hope everyone else has a good winter break, and has a safe holiday season. It was great getting to know all of you!

A beautiful end to a stressful semester!

As this first semester of college is begining to wrap up, I cannot be more relieved. Trying to juggle everything that I tried to this semester, I am excited to have a month off and not have too much to worry about. However, I did do well in most of my classes, I would have like to do better because I was a 4.0 student in High School and having lower grades my first semester in college is hard for me to handle, but I tell myself that college is way different than high school and once I learn the college setting and revise all my study habits I want to become a better student. I am excited to finish up this first for me and begin worrying about the next semester!

Winter Weather

The winter weather is just begining, with the snow just starting to fall. I quess however I can not complain because it is December and we are having our first snow falls. This week is supposed to be filled with lots of snow and everythings else that comes along with the winter weather. I hate winter driving. When it is snowing out I try anything to get out of driving. My first year of having my drivers license I had two winter car accidents. One I went into the ditch when we had a big ice storm and my school was not delayed and my road was not plowed yet. The second one was my fault, I didnt scrap my windows and I couldnt see a car stoped at the stop sign and I hit him head on. This winter shall be interesting since I am going to have to drive to La Crosse everyday!

Wrapping up

As the first semester in college is begining to wrap up, it seems that there is so much going on. I feel more stressed out in the last week than I have all semester. The pressure is on and it seems like teachers are giving up less time to complete what we need to. With the end of fall semester in view, I need to start to buckle down again and not let little things in life take me down a different path. I hope the end of semester goes well for me and I do good in all my classes. Next semester I plan to lighten my load so I do not get so stressed out!

New Roomate...

This week sometime my boyfriend and I are supposed to have our new roomate move in with us. My boyfriend doesnt know her and has never met her, but I met her through work. I am real excited to have another person living in the big ol' house with us, because when I am home alone I get really lonely. Also she is going to help with the cost of living. I am also a little nervous becuause I dont really know that much about her. I hope everything works out!

Stressed OUT!

As my first semester at Western is slowly coming to an end, I am starting to feel the pressure. It seems like everything, in every class is starting to come all at once. It is starting to get a little overwhelming. Between working all the time and trying to study for all my classes is getting harder each week. With my work load getting larger, I am not getting as much sleep as I need. Working till 11 at night then doing homework until midnight, then getting up at five when my boyfriend leaves for work to do more homework. Five hours of sleep a night is by far not enough for me. I am starting to find my self a little less attentive during my morning classes, which I'm afraid will impact my grade. But there is only four more weeks left and I am going to get through it one way or another. I mean there is always time over Christmas to sleep.

New ROOM!!

This weekend was a very busy one for me. On saturday my mom and I went to La Crosse and picked out my paint colors for my room. We also bought the new bedding. On sunday we broke down and started painting. It was fun, and I am really excited to see what its going to look like when its all finished. We painted one wall dark chocolate brown and the other wall white. Then we are going to paint all the trim the dark chocolate also. I am real excited to get my room done, so that I can get my bed in there and start getting my new house set up the way I want it.
