I Have Pretty Incredible Friends

Lately, I've come to realize that not only are my friends amazing, they are amazingly strong. The past few days I have really been thinking about it and all of my really close friends have overcome some difficult things and difficult times in life. They have been able to do it with their heads held high and have become such strong people. I'm so amazed and blessed to have friends like these to be there for me and help me along in my dark moments. They give me strength and courage when I need it and I try my best to do the same in return. I am so lucky to be surrounded by such wonderful people. They all deserve the best in life.

To all my friends, I love you all.

Today's Schedule

Well I guess I have a few min before class to write a bit on here. I've been neglecting this :-( Well more like, I'm not really getting good ideas to write about. Or I do, but end up forgetting them by the time I'm finally able to sit down and do it. Oh well. That's life right!

Although I do wish I had something meaningful to write about instead of my normal rant about life. It's continued to be mostly work and homework. It's finally getting cold outside, like winter cold. But again, we did make it with nice weather to the middle of November so I can't really complain too much.

I cannot believe how fast this semester has gone. There is only a month left, literally, before finals are over! Most of my classes shouldn't be hard to get through. It's marketing that I'm most concerned about. See, I have to write a 15-20 page paper. I've never written one that long before so it will definitely be a challenge. I should probably start on it soon too. I only have 3 weeks to get it done, on top of everything else I have going on. But today I have a lot of time to get stuff done...and since I like making lists, let's make one.

Shit to accomplish today:
-go to class!
-Marketing web assignment
-finish reading Ch. 7 for Human Geography (it's my last chapter to read, why not get it done and out of the way early. That way I have more crunch time later.)
-Spend the rest of the day working on my Final Marketing Project/Paper.
*Make outline
*Goal: 3 pages. (that's not too bad and starting is always the hardest part. And I can always write more if I have time)

That seems like a reasonably productive amount of stuff to get done today. Let's do it!

Ninja November

Well hello November,

Fancy seeing you this time of year. A surprise really, although it really should be. I knew the leaves had been changing and falling all around me. I knew the weather was getting colder. But I guess I was to busy with everything going on that I just didn't see you coming. You're like a ninja. I'm happy to see you though. October was a stressful month, so I'm hoping you'll treat me better. You started out kinda crappy though, no offense. All of that homework, those tests, long hours at work...and still more to come. But let's see what else you have to offer. Break is coming up! Which means going home to see the family, seeing old friends, getting a short break from classes, and good food! I guess it also got me to today-300 days and counting until the wedding! Wheee! Holy cow, only two more weeks until the week of Thanksgiving! Where has time gone?! Again, I blame your ninja skills. In a week it'll be 6 months til graduation. 6 whole months. Dang. I remember back when it was still 3 and a half years away. When it was a faint glimpse in the future, but no it's coming up and I know these next 6 months and a week will fly by. Crazy.

I'd write more, but I really should be productive and at least get a few pages read for marketing or human geography. This is also going to be a busy week but hopefully things will die down a bit after the 15th. Here's a schedule:

Monday: Class, read ALL of Ch. 11 for marketing, work on Ch. 6 for Human Geography, study for philosophy test
Tuesday: Class, start reading Ch. 12 for marketing, finish Ch. 6 for HG, study for philosophy test, meet with group
Wednesday: Presentation, finish Ch. 12 for marketing, reread all 3 readings for philosophy, study for philosophy
Thursday: Philosophy test, class, HG quiz
Friday/Saturday/Sunday: work, homework
Monday: class, study for Law & Ethics test
Tuesday: class, Law & Ethics Test, class

Just rar.
