For the last couple of weeks, I have been starting to slack in some of my classes. Coming into this week, however, I knew that I needed to start focusing again and completing all of my work. And that is exactly what I did. I finished all my math homework on time, and even went to the tutor this week to get help with some lessons I have been struggling with. I had my second math exam today which I feel very good about as well. I have never felt so satisfied with completing all of my homework and actually turning down going to the movies and hanging out with people to study and get all my work done for my classes. I think I finally realize that sacrificing time with friends now only allows me more time to have a blast later when I have everything done!
Next weekend I go out of town to Kansas City with Pike! I am very excited about that and being able to get to know a lot more guys from, hopefully, my soon-to-be fraternity. I haven't been initiated yet but so far I am loving it and can't wait for that time to come!
Weather was very chilly this week. It rained on Tuesday and Wednesday and then the last two days have had high temps of about 35 degrees. The wind chill brings those temperatures down to about 22 degrees as you can see for yourself :) But I'm NOT complaining! Maybe there are some few, occasional, no-big-deal moments that I want to be in warmer weather, but then I put another jacket on and it's all good! And I realize I'm much happier than being in 81 degree weather as we approach November!
As I said above, it was a very stressful week trying to catch up with my homework and getting everything done for my classes. But thanks to so many friends back home, they made my week so much more enjoyable. I had posted on Facebook how I missed my friends and can't wait for winter break, and long story short, it lead to an amazing conversation with a lot of people I really miss. And it put me in such a great mood I was laughing and getting such a kick out of what people were saying. I was actually sitting in class and read a message from my wonderful friend/brother/dad Paul Carnegie and I starting laughing and smiling and people were turning around looking at me wondering what I was watching. But there was nothing I could show people because it was simply one message that only I would understand. Times like those really make me miss all my friends more but gets me excited for winter break! Which is in 47 days by the way...
Now because of all of my focusing on classes and getting my work done, I wasn't able to take a lot of pictures this week. :P However, next week will be much more relaxed and I will have time to enjoy the BEAUTIFUL weather around me and take a lot more pictures. Since I know all of you are jealous that you can't experience the FLAT land and 40 degree weather. :)
Overall a fantastic week, and I can't wait for many more like this! Very happy with how my blog turned out this week as well. :) 7 weeks till I come home!
Love and miss you all!

Glad you had a good week of studying! :-) Hope you get a great grade on that math test! Nothing like an old friend to make you smile. And you know they are good friends if you can be away from them and it feels like no times has passed. Have fun in Kansas City. For the record, I will take 81 degree weather in November!
ReplyDeleteWell I'm glad you're liking the weather there still :) I just hope when I come back for winter that it finally cools down there!
Deletehey cam! so happy that you got all that work done. so proud of you that you've come to realize that what so many adults don't...work now means play later. :)
ReplyDeletethe weather actually sounds really nice, i don't blame you for liking it so much, it's the fall, it should be chilly and cold.
