Oh Christmas tree:

As much as I love the holiday season, I secretly hate it. I know there are some out there like me who look forward to hearing Christmas songs and putting up all the Christmas decorations but then when it comes down to it, it seems like a chore. I spent most of the weekend cooking, cleaning, decorating, and organizing. It was a pain in my ass. I can't even listen to anymore Christmas songs without going insane. There is nothing I can't stand more during this time of the year than going grocery shopping and everyone in the store is singing along to the Christmas jams they are playing throughout the entire store. I sound like the Grinch but it's not intentional. I think Christmas is one of the most precious times of the year because you get to be with your family and friends. Also, right after Christmas comes a brand new year. Another moment in life to remember that time flies, especially the older you get. I truly do love the holiday season but I enjoy it more when everything is done and less chaotic.



Speaking of time flying, finals are here. I can't believe that the semester is already over. I remember the first day of my humanities class. My professor told us, figuratively, that she had a cat on her head. I had my humanities final today. It was hands down the easiest final I have ever taken in my whole 14 years of school. It was essay form, so being the excellent writer I am, it was a piece of cake. Biology 2 is Tuesday and I'm actually scared. How come I can tell you anything and everything about biology but I can't test over it to save my life? I hate multiple choice tests and I hate takings tests. I am not a test taker especially if it's multiple choice. I sit there and stare at the test and all the answers begin to look good. I think tonight, I am going to write out notecards while I'm studying, to study. The one thing I have taken with me from my favorite teacher in high school was to always rewrite your notes because your brain will remember it more. Wednesday is my last final. I am taking History 2. I am sort of worried but then I'm not. It is multiple choice but she basically gave us the exam online. I'm going to be spending Tuesday night taking the quizzes over and over again. Plus, my professor really likes me. How do I know this? She told me. She tells me randomly all the time how much potential I have. Friday after our last test, she pulled me aside and said "I like you kid, you're quite the smartass." It made me laugh out loud. I don't really know why she likes me so much. Maybe it's because I laugh sometimes at the things she says. I feel sorry for her though. She's very quirky and so many people think she's insanely crazy and hate her. I think she's quirky in her own little ways and if people really payed attention, they would see that she's just a big smartass and is making fun of half the kids sitting in the class.

Today is one of those days...where you feel really sluggish and not in the mood to do anything. I didn't feel like being at work today. I went to bed at 2am and I haven't done that in a while. I am usually used to getting only 5 hours of sleep but as of late I've been trying to make better habbit. With Christmas break coming really soon, I'm going to screw my sleep pattern all up. I am not so sure how that is going to work out for me considering that my co-worker is about to pop any day now and I will have to come in even earlier to work since there will be one of us missing. Oh the joys of pregnancy. I think she planned this baby out at just the right time.
