Immersed in the greatness of space ;

I know, its been entirely too long. I apologize. The past few weeks have been crazy busy, though, with Thanksgiving and the end of the semester. Speaking of the end of the semester I am so glad its almost over! Just one more exam tomorrow morning & I'm home for break. :) Of course, I do have to come back up next weekend to play for the graduation ceremonies but at least I'm getting paid for that.
I think, overall, my first semester of college has been a success. Especially for me not knowing exactly what to expect out of it all. I have no doubt that I'm pulling As and Bs in all of my classes. This is encouraging to me since I know I could have put more effort in. So, maybe if I try harder next semester my grades will be even better. I really need them to stay the way the are so that I can keep my scholarships. I can hardly afford what I'm having to pay now. I guess, technically, I can't even afford that since I have a couple of loans. But I am very thankful I can go to school. That is for sure. :)
I can't even tell you how excited I am about spending a whole month at home. Well, roughly a month. I haven't spent more than a few days at home since the summer so this should be great. I'm sure, though, that it won't feel like enough time. But a month is better than a week or two. No doubt about that. I want to watch a lot of movies. And just enjoy the company of my family and friends. That's what makes the holidays great: the people you get to share them with.
I need to start packing some of my stuff up. That way I can leave as soon as I finish my writing exam tomorrow. And then after I pack some I need to study for that exam. I say study but its more like prep work. I need to figure out what I'm going to write about and get an outline & stuff worked out. Hopefully doing all that work will help me get in & out of there quicker AND get an A in the process. Ha.
Yea, I should go pack. I'll try to update a little more often over the break. In theory, I should have a lot more time to do so but you know how it goes with trying to catch up with old friends and what not.
Ah, I'm thrilled. :D
