This is always the craziest week in the semester. Finals week is great because you only have one test and then the rest of the day free. But the week before finals is always CRAZY! More projects and tests and papers were due this week. Plus they added a Lofts activity, and a fire drill. I wish I took a picture of my to-do list. I think it had almost 20 items on it.
Monday I came up to my room and my whole door was decorated! I still don't know who did it, but I love it.
For FHE we decorated Christmas Cookies to give away to people in need. I was having way too much fun!
This is how I felt after my Financial Accounting Test. But don't worry! I actually did well!
I think my favorite class this semester was Shakespeare. I loved the professor and the material he had us read. We read many plays but also a book on Shakespeare's life and another about plays in general. On Tuesday we put on a scene like it would have been done in Shakespeare's time. You get just your lines and your cue line on a scroll. Thats all you get. It was an interesting and really cool activity!
Tuesday started the nights of going to be at 1am. This was due to getting distracted and procrastinating...not because I was diligently getting done all the many things I needed too!
I love when our school is all decorated for Christmas!
I discovered my new love in life. Salted Carmel Hot Chocolate from Jonzzey's. It's basically the best thing.
Thursday was by far my busiest day! I went to classes, straight to work, straight to an RA dinner/christmas party, worked on a paper for a few minutes, went to a choir rehearsal, went to the big group RA meeting which finished at like 10:15pm. AHHHH! It was nuts!
But look at this cute bag the Tuttle's made me which had a cute mug and goodies in it.
I appreciate this meme immensely.
We had our Christmas Concert Friday night! I don't know what I'd do without Genny and Alex. They have been by my side since orientation. I LOVE them. And that could be an understatement.
After the concert it hit me that it was Christmas time! I was sitting there and then BAM!
"Wait.. Its Christmas!
I started to watch Elf with Genny, Alex, Travis, and Catherine. I left early to go on a drive with another friend, but can I just tell you how much I adore Elf? That movie is the best!
This is Anna Taylor. She works with me and is incredibly talented! I wish all of you could hear her sing because it is truly incredible. She is also one of the most Christ like people I have ever met.
Saturday was our only reading day. I woke up and worked hard to finish my Essay that was due that night. I went down to Heidi's house to finish it up and then went to lunch. I headed over to the basketball games with full intention to stay for a minute....
Three hours and two games later I left to go hurry and print the essay off and turn it in!
We all needed a massage!
Paper done!
After dinner I went over to Alex, Shannon's, and Anna's house where we sat and talked and then went to the live nativity that another church puts on. It was really cool! They have built the city of Bethlehem and they give you money to pay your taxes. They had horses, cows, lamas, and SHEEP! Romans were walking around and then the nativity is presented. It was absolutely freezing. We couldn't feel our bodies. But it was an awesome experience.
We came back and attempted to study for our final on Monday but we were not very successful.
I went home and naturally started to watch Harry Potter instead of work on anything!
It was our last Sunday in our Ward's this semester. Its crazy to think next week I will be home!!!
(Also, God is real! I told Camille all I needed was chapstick because my lips were so chapped and then I went to a Presidency meeting and we got little gifts and one of them was chapstick!)
