Last Week of Classes

So after this break is over there will be only one week of classes left and then it's finals week! I am not too worried about finals week this semester since three out of my four classes require final projects instead of actual tests for finals. While the projects can be a little time consuming, I am going to try and get a head start on everything and have it done before the day it is due so I won't have to stress out so much about getting the projects done. It is so strange to see how fast this semester has gone by I remember in September how badly I wanted this semester to be over with and felt like it was just never going to happen and now with it almost being done I find myself wondering where all the time went. I hope to end this semester well and get good grades and am excited for my last semester in college that is coming up, but good luck to everyone on their finals and classes!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hope everyone has a great thanksgiving and enjoys their break and time at home if you are home. It feels great to have a break and be back home with family for a few days. I am hoping to use this time at home and away from school to catch up on my work and get things done before I head back up to Plattsburgh this Sunday.

My dogs

I noticed I posted a blog post earlier this semester about my dogs and never posted a photo of my dogs, so I thought I might as well share a photo of them. :)

Thanksgiving dishes

With Thanksgiving approaching this week I was wondering what is everyone's favorite dish to eat on Thanksgiving besides the traditional turkey and stuffing. Is there any special thing that your family or yourself makes during the holiday? Any quick and easy recipes you can share for someone trying to make something different this year? My favorite thing to eat on Thanksgiving has to be sweet potatoes that my grandma makes with cinnamon, honey and maple syrup. They taste really great when paired with the turkey and just make the meal so much better!

Waiting till the last minute

I don't know why, but I tend to wait until the last minute to do everything. I could have all the time in the world one day to do something and I will wait until the day I have to do it, to actually do it. I always find myself finding other things to do instead of what I need to do. At least I can say that I actually get my stuff done and don't just forget about it or push it to the side. Whether it's done early or when it's due at least it gets done!

Cleaning

I have a love/hate relationship with cleaning I enjoy cleaning because my apartment starts to look somewhat decent and back in shape, but I hate cleaning because it just takes time and I find myself getting easily distracted with the littlest of things. I mean today was a pretty productive cleaning day for me I managed to put away clothes that have been folded in my room on my dresser for about 2 weeks now and even put away the clean laundry. Tomorrow I am hoping to get more done and actually fix up my apartment because it is pretty embarrassing when you have to apologize to people for your place looking so messy. However, I am sure there are much messier places than my place which is great!

Book Suggestions?

So I have been thinking about getting into reading recently and was wondering if anyone had any good book suggestions. Even though I am pretty busy throughout the week I think if I get into reading the time when I am doing nothing and just sitting around, I could be productive and read a good book. So what's good to read out there!

Moving too fast or too slow?

I feel like time has been going by really fast, but then at times I feel that it is going by really slow. It's amazing to think that we are already in the beginning of November when it feels like the semester just started yesterday. Now I feel that it is going by so slow because some of things I wanted to accomplish this semester were pushed back and delayed due to some issues. I am hopeful, however, that I can finish out the semester strong and complete my goals.
