It's been a while since my last post, but that is because school took up every last minute of my life during that time. Somehow, I survived this semester. Don't ask me how. I am pretty sure it was only through desperate prayers to God. This was the worst school semester that I have ever encountered in my life. Yes, it even beats my awful memories of 7th grade! At this point, I don't care what grades I got from these classes. It only matters that I made it. And now, I only have three more semesters of classes before I can be independent(-ish) in my learning. After the three more semesters, I will barely see these awful elitist professors again. :)
Now I am finishing up grading stuff, which is difficult to do because I am SO sick of working. However, I have it all under control and I am maintaining a wonderful balance of grading and relaxing. For example, this saturday was the first weekend in a very long time that I did some of my hobbies. I am in the process of making pictures for my asian-themed dining room. They are looking really good, and I am pretty close to finishing! Paul and I also cleaned the house on saturday, which was something that I haven't done in WAY too long. Paul has been amazing this semester and has done almost all of the work around the house. I was going to return the favor by cleaning everything on saturday, but he wanted to help which reminds me why I love him so much. :) We also had people over to our house to watch a movie and chill. I also got some grading done. So all in all, it was a perfectly balanced day, and I am so happy because of it.
I also took a bubble bath, listened to Handel's messiah, slept in, and played my beloved sims. Once I get this grading done (probably tomorrow), it will be time for packing and off to Florida with Paul, Rick, and Kyle. We should have tons of fun sleeping, fishing, and eating. I might try to read for fun again. It's been a long time.
I wish that I could see more family on this break as well, but I must do what I gotta do to regain my sanity. Florida should (hopefully) help me regain my strength (physically and emotionally).
I hope that anyone reading this blog has a wonderful and blessed Christmas.
