Hey everyone. How is everybody? And how was your Turkey Day? Mine was excellent. My husband and I went over to his grandparents house where everyone gathered to fill our bellies! After everyone had about four helpings of the delicious turkey my husband's grandmother made, we joined in for a little fun and gambling with a Texas Hold'em Poker game. I would tell you all how I did, but I will just say that I am not the best poker player! I am more of a Euchre player or Spades myself. Let's just say that I was relieved that we were not playing for money! *giggles* We eventually, and when I say eventually, I mean six hours later, got to play Euchre. I absolutely love Euchre. It is my all time favorite card game in the world. I have been playing since I was about six, so not to toot my horn or anything, but I ROCK at Euchre. It was good times over there. I always have the best time with my husband's family because they are so much more open than my family. I really feel at home in their family, it makes me feel special.
Anyway, I will get to my topic for the week and that would be, are we really at the end of a semester already? Fall semester always seems to go by so slowly for me and this Fall has gone by so fast. Usually towards the last week or two of a semester I have turned everything in I would have needed to and I just spend my time studying for exams. It is definitely different this semester because I am in two workshop classes, so we have to wait to the very end to turn everything in and then get our final grades. I still have not quite figured out which situation I like better. A ton of material to go over and over and over and over again until it is so racked in my brain that it is never leaving so I do well on my exams, or no exams and paper and paper and paper and paper after paper to turn in. There are advantages and disadvantages on both sides, but honestly, I do not like either situation. I just want to be done with school period...FOREVER. I am really getting sick of school. I really cannot handle the stress anymore. It is just so much to do and deal with. I cannot remember a time when I was this stressed out. I have literally broken out in acne all over my forehead and the rest of my face, and I have what my husband's Aunt Tamara calls a broken blood vessel in my eye, which she says is caused from stress. I don't know if everyone knows what that means, but it basically looks like my right eye is bleeding. It looks absolutely disgusting. She says it will go away in a few days, but if it doesn't, I will definitely be going to my eye doctor.
Wow....I have really gone off in a total rant here and I am approaching my 500 word requirement. My whole point to this blog entry was simply this: while it has been a difficult, interesting, and frustrating semester I hope that I have done everything I can to improve my writing. I want to be able to write for all different types of situations, so I have a lot ahead of me in the future. I am not 100% sure if we are supposed to write in here for next week or not, so I will say a quick and general goodbye. It was lovely working with everyone and I wish all the best in the future for everyone.
