It's that time again...

Yep...that's right...it's final's week again! In other words, it is one of the worst weeks of the year! It really should not be one of the worst times of the year though. I mean, Christmas is almost here. The holidays are supposed to be a happy time!! School somehow always seems to put a damper on the holidays though. Most likely because I get really stressed out during finals. Here are some reasons that I have compiled below of why I wll be stressed this time around:

1. The lack of sleep.
2. I'm an accounting major (self explanatory).
3. In order to keep my A's I have to study my rear end off.
4. All four (that's right, I said four) of my finals are cumulative.
5. The tile people are supposed to come fix our floor during finals and I am the one who is to oversee it.
6. There are a lot of things going on at my church back home that suck really bad. People staying that I don't want to stay, people leaving that I don't want to leave, etc. (you get the point)
7. Homework I have to finish before I can even study for my finals.
8. Making sure I have everything packed and ready to go that I need for my trip to Disney World with the fam and for my internship in the Spring by next Wednesday, since I won't have time to come back to College Station until March
9. I have to shop for Christmas presents within the next two weeks since we are having Christmas early this year.
10. Missing my boyfriend.
and last but not least...
11. Did I mention the lack of sleep and all cumulative finals???

As you can see, finals just make you wish that Christmas was already here. I can't believe that I have actually made the decision to stay in school longer to get my master's degree. I must be out of my mind! jk I wish that I could just fast forward in my life to next Wednesday at 10AM. That would be so awesome! Until then though, I will be studying my little heart out, dreaming of the days when I won't have to look at a book anymore.

Using a blog again

So, I've decided to blog again. I had a xanga a couple of years ago, but I don't use it anymore. Writing has always helped me to clear up and sort through my thoughts. Unfortunately, I don't feel like I do this enough anymore and that is why I am stressed a lot. So, hopefully this will help keep my stress levels down with everything going on with school and just life in general. I also want to do this in order for my friends to keep up with me and my life. I have a facebook and myspace too, but I feel like those only show what is going on in your life at one point in time. You update the facebook or myspace one day and then may not update it for another year or so. I feel like blogs are just more current. Just my point of view though...

Anyways, I do want to ask that you all pray for my best friend, Lauren from high school, and her family. Her dad has cancer and doesn't have much longer to live. Just pray that God will comfort them during this time and to make the holidays as good as possible for them. Also pray that her dad remains comfortable and upbeat for the rest of his time here. Thanks and God Bless!
