so my semester is over and i am HOME!!! yay! :)
it's nice and rainy which is cause for cozy clothing, a warm mug full of hot cocoa, and lazy days of Christmas vacation. mmm...my favorite.
finals week was a little crazy but went fairly well as far as i'm concerned. i really wanted to write a blog on wednesday but my laptop charger broke and i didn't have a computer. so for the past few days i have been computer-less and it seemed like i had nothing to do. sad, i know. we've become so dependent on the internet for entertainment. but luckily i had my iPod and i listened to music for most of my free time...besides sleeping and studying of course.
but wednesday was quite a day if i do say so. i had my 3-dimensional design final at 9:45 in the morning which was to present our animal masks to the class. so the night before i had stayed up until 4am working on my project. i decided to create a cloth monkey mask referencing a sock monkey more than an actual monkey face. so i finished it and went to bed and in just a few moments it seemed as if i were up again. but it was 9am. so i went to my final and got to see all the other crazy animal masks. our entire class then suited up and proceeded to parade out of the classroom and into the cafeteria like a herd of crazy zoo escapees. it was probably the greatest final i will ever have. everyone was looking at us but nobody knew it was me! our professor then bought us all drinks from the coffee shop and we debriefed the semester and then said our goodbyes.
then when i got back to my apartment i was still very tired from the lack of sleep i had been getting so decided to take a nap. when i normally take naps i usually set an alarm just to make sure i don't sleep too long but this time i decided not to. possibly a terrible idea. i got into my bed at about 11:30am and woke up at 4:00pm. yes, my friends, i basically slept my entire day away after parading through the food court of my college campus literally looking like a monkey! and the funny thing was for a second i thought it was the next day. it had gotten darker and anyone could have easily been as confused as i was. another thing was that i had not consumed anything except for the iced chai that my teacher had bought me earlier at 10:30am. that definitely was one of my stranger days compared to the rest although lack of sleep seemed to remain a common factor.
then on thursday night there was a banquet for the graduating liberal studies students, and i being a student worker in the liberal studies office was there to help. basically i got paid to eat delicious food and listen to an amazing and profound professor speak on christian world views and how teachers affect their students. just like jesus making prophets out of "donkeys" aka his disciples. haha :) then friday i got paid to watch the movie "elf." i think i've mentioned before that i love the people i work with. that statement still stands.
and now all of my finals are completely finished and credit wise i am officially a first semester junior!
it is oh so nice to be home.
