New Look

I decided to change my blog look. I think it is a little easier to read and encourages interactions (and feedback) now.

To my long list of goals, I'd like to add writing a blog entry at least once a week. Granted, they might be boring since my life consists of an endless cycle of school and babysitting, but I'll try to make them interesting.

This week has been stressful with projects, essays, other school-related stress and learning that my teachers might go on strike. If the teachers go on strike for a week, it'll be a setback, but nothing that can't be made up. However, one of my classmates who attended this University for undergrad said that there was a strike once that lasted 6 weeks. 6 weeks is unacceptable and I don't want to end up having to stay an extra semester because of this. When I enrolled at this University I never realized that the RU screw from my undergrad years would end up being applicable to this university.

I'm also hoping I get to go have some Fall fun this weekend - pumpkin/apple picking, hayrides, and cornmazes would be great!

Besides worrying about not being able to go to class, I'm still just working hard at maintaining my GPA, enjoying my classes, working towards getting in better shape, and becoming more aware about myself.

Last thought - why do none of my friends update their blogs anymore!

Autumn Part 2

More reasons I love Fall:

Pumpkin & apple picking, hayrides, corn mazes, fall flavors, changing leaves, scarves, warm socks, hot cider and hot beverages, Halloween, Thanksgiving.
