Christmastime

So finals are done and first semester is over. Studying for finals was so stressful but I made it through and I feel good abou how I did. It is so nice to feel completely stress free! My friend has an extra ticket for a concert tonight and she offered it to me so I am very excited for that. It is Paul Brandt and High Valley and it is going to be a whole bunch of fun.

Tomorrow I am going home and it will be so nice to be home for a bit. I will be working a lot but it should be fun anyways. And I am excited for some snow, but not for the cold. Christmas is going to be pretty busy with going home, working, coming back to BC for Christmas, staying with my best friend's family and then back to school. All the while I need to try and figure out a way to work out consistently throughout the next few weeks.

Last night I had such a fun night with Tim. We cooked supper together and then after made the most delicious Bailey's milkshakes MMmmmm. It was so tasty and then we watched a movie after and it was just great.

Anyways, there is not much else going on right now. Life is good and Christmas is coming!!

"For to us a child is born,
   to us a son is given,
   and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
   Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
   Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."

End of Semester

Well the first semester is quickly coming to a close. Classes are done and finals are around the corner. I have so much to study and I have no idea how I am going to contain it all into my brain. Let's just say it's gonna hurt for a while. It will feel so nice when finals are finally over. After that, I get about 3 weeks off! It will be busy though. I will be kinda running all around from place to place; from school, to home, to my sister's house, to school, to my friends house and then back to school. And I am hoping to see my boyfriend sometime throughout all that craziness.

The past few weeks have been pretty chill. I had a few big papers to write, but they got done somehow (not really sure how though) and with volleyball slowing down, I have had a lot more free time. Yesterday my team had our weekly "team time" and it was really good as usual. Everytime two girls share their testimony and I love hearing about where my friends come from and why they are the way that they are. It is also a good environment for all of us to support eachother and pray for eachother. I love my team and I love team time! After team time,a  few of us went to Brad and Donna's (my assistant coach and his wife) and chilled in the hot tub! It was so relaxing and wonderful :)

Anyways, that is about it for now, I am going into study mode and I plan to not come out until I write my last final.
