Misc.

Wow I so need a break/vacation. I can not wait for finals week to just be here and over with. I need that 3 weeks off, I also get 11 days off of work for Christmas shut down. I am pretty sure that I am not going to leave my couch, my girlfriend is coming to stay with me and we are just going to sit around and play Call of Duty all day. I might have to take a break every now and then to play Assassins Creed which is going to be awesome. It comes out tomorrow, and I can't wait.I really need this break I am pretty sure I have almost had two nervous breakdowns this semester which is not fun at all. This has been a learning experience so far I now know that work a 40hr a week job that has overtime and taking 13 credit hours just doesn't seem to be that easy lol. I am taking it easy the rest of the way no more cramming  classes and stressing myself out that much it is really not worth it. I know that in the end  will be happy no matter how long it takes. I am just thankful to be getting a college education. I will finish it is just going to take a little longer. Good luck to everyone in their pursuit of happiness.

  1. Wow it sounds like you have a lot on your plate right now. Working over time like that and having that many credit hours has GOT to be draining and difficult. I work a lot too and am involved in a lot of activities outside of school and work and I understand how it is trying to cram it all together and get by and trying to make everyone happy all at the same time. It's hard.. it's really hard. I totally agree about this break. I am sooo ready for it. I can't wait. I'm kind of bummed that the break isn't too too long, but at least we all get one. It seems like everything is coming down to the wire now and classes are starting to feel piled up. For me on my break I'll probably be working my butt off trying to save up some more money since I won't have those few extra months of a break from school to save some money. I love this time of year though with the holidays coming up. I agree and think you shouldn't stress yourself out anymore wit cramming classes and everything. Just take it slow and don't get too overwhelmed by it all. Overall like you said, being thankful to be able to have a college education is such a blessing. A lot of people aren't able to do that so it's great you have that mindset! Good luck with the rest of your classes! It will all be worth it in the end!

  2. Hey, dude, I can totally and utterly relate to what you are saying for sure. I would say that I have been looking forward to the end of this semester since about the beginning of October. It is kind of sad because, typically, I am really motivated and I highly enjoy schooling and coursework. That being said, this semester is, for some reason, really different from previous years at my high school. In high school, I was always the one who had their essays completed first, always made the honor roll, and was basically a very stern and tight nit person. This semester, however, I am starting to sleep in later, become lazier when doing coursework, and I am even procrastinating homework until its due 20 minutes in the future. It honestly really sucks. Also, at work, I have basically been working, not only my shift, but two other people’s shifts as well. It really is taking a toile on me physically. I barely have time to eat anything, and my sleeping habits are consisting of 4 hour sleeps, it stinks for sure. When that good ol’ holiday break comes around, my butt is not leaving that comfy as heck couch in my living room unless I need to go to the restroom or get some food. It sounds terribly lazy, I know, but I have been working nonstop since the semester began, so, I think I need to use some down time as “lazy” time. I hope you enjoy your holiday break as much as I do, because I am going to make it the best time ever.
