rest in peace fall 09.

finished up fall 09 semester last night.
what a semester it was! i, like whitney ward,
found this semester of college one of the most
inspiring and life-applicable semesters yet. it's
so great to be taking all classes that i am very
interested in and enjoy and want to learn from.
although completely exhausting, my weeks in
the dear lincoln elementary were definitely a
highlight of the semester, and perhaps even
college altogether! i miss those little 2nd
graders so much. . . and pretty sure i read
those cards they made me at least once a week.
maybe i should feel the same way about the
kindergarteners... ha ha. oops. anyway. whit
and i convinced our reading teacher to let us
take the final early so we could be done monday
rather than late thursday. best decision ever.
so here i am - home for the holidays! it's funny
because my sisters tend to think it's a national
holiday whenever i'm home (love it) and don't
want to do any work or practicing... which is
tough for both of us because 1. they are in
school until the 23rd, and go back the 3rd.
i am home now until jan. 10th. ha ha. also,
being home alone all day, i get really anxious
to play with them when they get home, but
they always have homework and practicing
and have to go to bed early. you'd think the
college student would be the one with all the
work to do. best. and allie is leaving me for
a cruise... which is lame. but exciting for her!
so my mom and i are going to have lots of fun
adventures together. i'm actually really, really
excited about it. it's not very often you get that
amazing woman all to yourself :) and of course
it's so nice to be here to see all the madrigals
performances and jazz band concerts and orchestra
concerts and help with christmas projects in
4th grade. i love home. in case you didn't know.
my family is one of the very most prized parts of
my short life. merry christmas! it's going to be a
great month. p.s. 76 days and counting! ;]
