Happy Holidays!

Bah Humbug

The holiday season is upon us. It’s that time of year when you hate working @ a shopping mall. One would think that the holiday season would incite cheer in everyone, for most this is true, But holiday shopping also tends to highlight the crazy (a fight nearly broke out in front of my window), as well as, the “not so bright” consumers (when your counting by tens, do you hit 15 or 24?...think about it!). Scheduled to work all next weekend, Bugger.

Have to go holiday shopping this week = Hell

Last semester = good marks

Current Affaires: reading Potter books and enjoying them immensely, watching all of my favorite holiday movies (Bridget Jones, Love Actually, & A Christmas Story), watching the cold rain.

As far as I can tell

It doesn’t matter who you are

If you can believe there’s something worth fighting for

The colour of an eye

The glory of a sudden view

The baby in your arms

The smile he always shoots at you

Believing in nothing

Makes life so boring

So let’s pray for something

To feel good in the morning

Oh doctor

We’re dying

There’s no use in crying

So live for tomorrow

And do what you have to.

1 down, 5 to go...

I've officially finished my first semester @ UCF ! yay!

Reflecting on my experiences, I've come to the conclusion that I really haven't learned anything new. While I was able to complete a few microteaches, develop a couple of lesson plans, and work on my public speaking (i still tend to freak out with this aspect though) all the other stuff was review. Hopefully next semester will bring new and wondrous things. In the meantime I'm going to enjoy winter vacation and hopefully find employment!

Good morning, this is your 7am wake up call...

Listening to: 107.7 "It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas"
Mood: slightly annoyed

*Eating: Expresso chip Ice cream* Yes, i know it's only 8 am, but this is what happens when a delusional professor wakes you up @ 7am (after you stayed up all night straightening out your desk) to say you missed a deadline-when really said professor sent an email out a few days ago saying the paper wasn't due till the 7th. After writing a crappy page long reflection about the class in 1/2 an hour (b/c it has to be in by 8am the professor leads me to believe), I sent it out along with the due date email. *Mum: "teachers are a crazy bunch, are u sure you want to become one?"*

Yesterday was the female family holiday luncheon, where the women of my family get together and exchange little gifts. Unfortunately, we arrived late and so were unable to tell which gift was from whom. Although, I later find out that all already knew, I was just outta the loop. You know that one person in your family who you dread getting gifts from because they just don't have any taste? In my case, it's an older aunt. Of course I was the idiot who picked out "that gift"! Although it was a step up from the paper, Christmas napkin set she gave out last year, I ended up with Christmas hand towels. My mom was nice enought to swap with me, though. So now I have a neat foto carousel.

I'm going to spend some more time w/ my new sateen sheets. Over & Out.
