midterms and such

Life has been flashing by, I can't believe that we are already more than half way through the semester. I look back at how I felt at the beginning to the semester (moving as a transfer student scared and afraid) and laugh. I feel like an expert. Even though I still don't have everything under my belt, I have my schedule and routine down pat.

I have been thinking about going into restoration lately. Because I love art, but I also love science a lot too. I don't know much about it and have just been toying with the idea. Interestingly enough, a graduate student in my 19th century art class was seriously considering that field and has researched a lot of information about it and she told me that she would give me the file she has composed. So that was extremely exciting and random.

My job is going well, after a small bump in the road I feel like I am doing better than ever. My classes are still over whelming, but I have a feeling they will continue to be until the semester ends. I went to a UNT football game a few weeks ago! That was utterly amazing U...N...T.... Eagles fight-fight-fight! I really miss my family. I feel like with classes, church, work and school assignments that I don't have any free time anymore. I haven't seen my family in quite a while, and my little brother and sister had their 10 year old birthday recently :(

Life has definitely become a balancing act lately and my arms are getting really sore....maybe I should try to fit in working out?

Watch out!

So...it has been a while since my last post, regrettably due to my busy life at the moment.

It is so easy to let school work creep up on you, even when you are studying and reading all the time *BAM* a test, paper, or presentation is right in your face. I feel like I have been smacked in the face a lot lately.

I talked to my aunt (through facebook, ironically enough) the other day and was really encouraged. Even though school work never seems to end, and my job is time consuming, and my sleep is always disappearing...this is college. Time to have some fun and enjoy myself before I am thrown into the real work - makes me wonder how hard the real world will be lol.

I am really starting to enjoy my job. It is becoming easier each day I work, and the people I work with are so wonderful! I will admit that I almost cried on Sunday...but this woman started chewing me out telling me how horrible the service was, and it wasn't even my table (I don't know why she got her panties all in a wad). Monday and tonight were much better, the customers were super nice, and gave me good tips!

I have joked with one of my roommates about our survival strategy for college - just make it to the end of the semester. But that soon became, make it through october, then make it through this week, make it to tomorrow, make it through the next hour, minute, second...so, if we just make it one second at a time, we will survive haha

I should probably return to my 19th century assignment, blah

OH! I went to the Vesuvius exhibit @ the DMA this past Saturday, it was so amazing! I would recommend everyone go to it right now, but I am afraid it is in Jackson Florida now :(
