1 To Go!!

I have 1 final left. Just ONE! Strangely, today is actually the first "finals" day. However, most of my professors decided to move their finals to the week before the technical finals. Each of them were trying to take a little stress off of finals week by having their final at a different time. NOT so lucky for me, they all chose the SAME day! That day was yesterday, but it's over and done. I am a happy camper! I now just have one left on next Tuesday and I will have a MONTH off! Time has really flown by since Thanksgiving break. I didn't really realize how close the end was at Thanksgiving break, but we really only had two weeks between the return from Thanksgiving Break and leaving for Christmas break.
Last weekend I went home with my friend Sarah. It was kind of a teaser though, spending a weekend with a family, in a house all decorated for Christmas, and doing all sorts of fun family Christmas things (baking cookies, shopping, ect). Then I had to come back to the reality of finals before I could go home to my family. I'm pretty excited about break (obviously), but my mind is already on what has to be done when I get back. I'll be returning to campus on Jan. 11, then at 6AM on Jan. 12, I leave for Washington D.C. I'm going for the Federal Business Seminar with the Christian Student Leadership Conference. Can't Wait! I've never been to D.C. before, so it will be a pretty good experience. Not to mention that we'll be there the week before the inauguration, so things will be crazy in the city. That is isn't until after break though.

I still have a few things to look forward to before I leave.
1. Christmas Banquet, which is Saturday night.
2. Late Night Study Break, which is Sunday night. Basically the cafeteria opens up during some really late hours at night and students can take a break from studying to go in and get something to eat!
