Happy 2007!
Happy New Year!! It seems like I just left Belmont for Christmas break. I had about three weeks off but it felt more like three days. Break was pretty good, I was able to spend lots of time with my boyfriend and my family and I just had time to chill out. I came back to Belmont and then left again for a few days to go on a retreat with Debate. That was good fun, and productive too!! I have most of a speech done and ready for the upcoming round of forensics tournaments!
This semester has had a pretty awesome start. This morning my roommate and I awoke to discover that the diet Coke that she put in the freezer last night had exploded. It was a mess but hilarious at the same time. Before that I had spent a few days shopping with my friends. The benefits of getting back to school early!
As I sit here in my dorm room I can hear the Pep Rally for Homecoming outside that I should have probably gone to. Both the women’s and the men’s basketball teams are doing amazing and I have been feeling a bit guilty I haven’t been out there to support them yet.
It sounds like so much fun but I have chosen to be a nerd and get a jump start of some homework, even though I have no classes on Fridays and Monday is a holiday. One of my New Years resolutions is to stop procrastinating, so I should probably start the year out right at least. This semester will definitely be a little bit harder...well a lot harder. I have gone over the syllabi that my professors have given to me, and every single week I have either a paper or a test. I expected the amount of homework to be a little higher this semester, but I am not dreading it really. All of my classes look really interesting and I am excited to start learning more about them.
The weather here is insane. It is night time and it is still about 50 degrees, and tomorrow its going to be in the 60’s. It is crazy to think that a week and a half ago, I was in New York where it was unseasonably warm at 40 degrees. Go figure. Anyway, I am going to go get back to some homework now. Goodbye
