Well, I'm about 2 weeks into my Christmas holidays, and I am absolutely loving them!!! It is nice to relax and just forget about school...at least for a bit. In a little over a week it will be time to head back and get back into a schedule. As much as I love holidays and the feeling of not having to do anything, I am a person who likes a schedule, so I am excited to get back to my schedule and then not every day will feel like a Saturday!!!
I don't have much news to update. Really none at all. Hopefully everyone is having a great Christmas break as well. I am having a lovely time with my sister and brother-in-law. It's too bad that they have to go home tomorrow already! It seems like such a short time that they've been here. I am grateful for the time we've had together, though.
Anyways, enjoy the rest of the holiday season.
Happy New Year to you all!!!!!!

Tomorrow's Only a Day Away!
Well, a lot has changed since the last time I posted a blog on here!
1. It is definitely not 7 more sleeps until the 17th of December...it is 1!!!! I am extremely excited for that.
2. I have written 4 exams and am writing my 5th and final exam tonight at 7:00. I am very excited to get that over with and go home and spend 3 weeks not really thinking about school at all :)
3. It is absolutely freezing cold outside, and it was NOT this cold last time I posted a blog! I actually had to plug in my car this morning and will get my friend to come give me a boost later on this afternoon. That is probably my only sad news!!!!
Now, I must get back to studying - I'd really like to do well on my LAST EXAM OF THIS TERM!!!!!!!!
Hope you all are having a great day!

Just a Clarification...
In all the excitement of having a countdown, I forgot to let you all know where the countdown's at!
Here it is:
7 more sleeps until the 17th of December!
Woohoo!!!
Okay, now back to studying:)

Countdowns are Fun
I am counting down the days until Christmas.
Actually no.
I am counting down the days until December 17th. There are two reasons for this:
1. I finish my last exam on December 16th in the evening, so that means that on December 17th, I'm officially on Christmas holidays until we go back to school on January 6th.
2. Andy & Cheryl (brother-in-law and sister) are coming out for Christmas on December 17th.
That is why I am counting down days. I'm kind of at the place where I'm really tired of studying (who isn't???) and I'm surprisingly extremely calm in terms of all my exams coming up. I really haven't started to stress about them, and why start? It's not going to help me, that's for sure.
Anyways, I should go study. I just realized that I hadn't updated my blog for a while, and thought I would do that.
Hope you enjoyed that:)
Have a happy day!

I'm Sorry It's Been So Long...
Well, I know it's been a really long time since I've posted something here and I'm really sorry. Things are getting very busy for me and I know that's a bad excuse, but it's the only one I've got.
It's the week before exams here for me, and I am looking forward to Christmas break more than ever!!! It's the final week of classes, and I am ready to be done! Although I am saying all of this, the semester has gone by really quickly. I am kind of amazed that I am already done half of my first year! Just three and a half more to go!!! I am enjoying my time here at BU, but I still don't want to be here for life.
Here's my schedule for next week. On Monday I write my Nutrition final exam. This is a course that I'm taking through Athabasca University, and it is not very easy. The next exam is on Friday - actually two exams are on Friday. I have Intro to Statistics in the morning and Biology in the afternoon. I actually enjoy Stats for the most part, so that shouldn't be too bad. Some of you know how I feel about Biology, so you know that Bio will most likely be my most dreaded exam. I have my Human Growth & Development exam on Saturday and then I don't have an exam until my Human Anatomy & Physiology mid-term exam on Tuesday the 16th. That one is a mid-term exam because that course goes all year long.
After that, it is home time for me, and spending time with family! I am super excited that my brother-in-law and sister are coming out for Christmas!!! I've been counting down for quite a while!!!!
Well, that is about all that's going on in my life right now. Hope that keeps all you happy for now. Over Christmas I will try to post more. Since I won't have homework, it should be possible!
For those of you who are also in exam season, I hope they go well for you. We just need to push through this last little bit until the end. We're almost there!!!

LIFE!!!
Life just keeps on going. Really, whether I need or want it to stop or slow down for a bit, it won't. There are so many things to do and seemingly so little time in which to do them all.
Whatever.
Anyways, finally I am posting some pictures!!! The first few are of my room in Brandon, and then there are some pictures of my room mate and I. We decided to make s'mores one night, and what better way to do it than in the oven!! Okay, an outdoor fire may be the better way, but we sure had a lot of fun making them in our little oven! Yum!

I'm sorry...not a real post yet!
Okay, so I know that it's been almost forever since I last posted something, but as I said in the last post, life is crazy!!!! Now that there's assignments due and exams happening, I have had absolutely no time to update my blog. Stay tuned and eventually I will post something decent, and it will contain pictures!!!!

Life's Gonna Get Crazy!!!
Well, as some of you may know, my professors at Brandon University have been on strike since September 29. I heard today that the faculty association (BUFA) has now come to a tentative agreement with the University. Tomorrow the professors are going back to work, and on Friday students go back to class!
Although this is a welcome resolution, I am now trying to myself ready for class again. You would think that since I had almost three weeks off of school, I would be caught up and maybe even ahead in my studies. Actually, I am behind. I know that's bad and this really shouldn't have happened, but it did. Now, I am frantically trying to get caught up so that when Friday comes I am ready to go. I think that it will be almost impossible for me to completely catch up, but I will attempt it.
I think that I am up to the challenge of getting a lot of work done in a day, but I also know that I am a very, very good procrastinator! It's just a very good thing that there's not a season of House here with me this week!!!!
Well, I guess I should probably either get back to studying or go to bed soon. Sorry that there's no pictures. I will try to post some next time - maybe of my apartment.
Stay tuned for an update hopefully soon!
