Today is the last day of break for me.

Tomorrow, I get to wake up at a lovely 7:30 in the morning for my first history class in 4 years. My boyfriend would say that is hardly early at all, seeing as he got up at 5:00 in order to be in Omaha to student teach at 7:30 last semester. Seeing as he is a History major, he probably wouldn't mind going to class for me

Haha, kidding! He doesn't love me THAT much! Six years in college is quite enough, isn't it honey?

I'm super nervous about school though. My GPA from last semester is pretty much in the toilet, and I don't have much confidence that I can do better this semester. I just didn't have the motivation to do well, or to make much effort.

I would LOVE to be one of those students I see in class, who is always 10 minutes early for class, with a coffee in one hand, notes out, well read in what we're learning, and prepared to participate in class.

Me? I would arrive late almost every time, still drowsy from my nighttime meds, and would have to search to find an empty desk, all the while panicking because I spent last night goofing off on the computer and watching a movie with my roomies instead of reading the required text. I would forget to bring my book, or homework, and my mind would be racing thinking about all I have to get done.

I CAN'T AFFORD another bad semester. I already have to take one, possibly two classes over again. I will probably have at least 2 practicums, plus work, OXP secretary work, sorority stuff, moving to my mom's fiancee's house, and helping with wedding stuff.

GAAAA! God help me! I guess I have to take it one day at a time.

My love life is pretty awesome though. Chris is a wonderful boyfriend, and is super sweet and considerate. He treats me really well, and we're a lot alike. Plus he's cute, and a really good kisser! Tee hee hee...

I played this game called Warhammer with him and 4 of his friends yesterday. I play a thief named Rosetta, and I kicked ass! I fear I'm addicted, but there are worse addictions to have, I suppose. Chris's friends are all so nice, and I have had a lot of fun hanging out with them, and getting to know them better. ^_^

After going to Na Trang for dinner, Chris and I went back to his house, and played this really sweet game called "Worms"! It was SO much fun!!! You get to shoot, grenade and bomb the shit out of enemy worms on a battlefield you can customize yourself. I'm worried that I will want to spend all of my time playing it online. Eeek! Must be strong.

I'm so happy that I got to see Chris, Stef, Kelsey, Stef, Ana, Deb, Case, Michelle, Anna, Lucas, Jim and Emily over break.

I hope we can still all manage to get together and have lots of fun despite school this semester.

Thanks for reading!

Much love,
