New Semester Here I Come!

All this beauty;
You might have to close your eyes
And slowly open wide
All this beauty;
We traveled all night
We drank the ocean dry
And watched the sun rise...
~The Weepies - "All This Beauty"

So yes I know that I had all these grand plans of blogging and vlogging over break and yes I am very aware that neither really happened other than my project for awesome video. But I can honestly say that the break from technology was actually a really good idea and left my all the more energized to devote more time to this blog in the new year!

FIrst off the new semester has just started. At this point I have had all my new classes and I can honestly say I like 3 out of the 4. I was pleasently suprised by my intro to sociology class today. While it seems like an interesting class, the professor seems great too! She is a really funny little English lady :D. I also am a big fan of my schedule on these days cause I have a nine forty class then a two hour break and then a TERRIBLE math class but at least it's the last class of the day. I am gonna just pretend that class doesn't exist. Seriously when a math prof walks into a room full of elementary education majors and goes on a rant about how rude the things elem ed majors are... that pisses me off. Oh well. My even day classes are MUCH more my speed. I am taking one of my fav profs from last semester again and he is amazing for my methods class about teaching writing and reading. My comm class has potential but we will see.

So in other news... break was pretty good. I spent a lot of time with the fam just relaxing which was really what I needed. I also went to Chicago which was super fun. New Years wasn't super eventful but I went to the Wild game with Michael and then we went back and he killed me a couple dozen times on Call of Duty 2. Also go to see Jenna and Brad that night which was sooo much fun! I can't believe how much I missed that girl!

I am now back at college. I really missed my friends here and having someone just around the corner to talk to. I love my fam but college is amazing.

OH also I read a great book over break called the Genius Instruction Manuel. It was editted by John Green so I knew it would be hilarious but it was even better than I thought. I brought it on my trip to Chicago and actually managed to read 2/3rds of it on the plane ride there. I love random facts and this is what the book is all about. I completely recommend it for anyone who loves random interesting tidbits or wishes they new a little more about everything!

So now I am going to finish my hot chocolate and prepare myself for a statistics filled math class... boooo. I will write again soon - probs on friday - same time same place ;).

Much Love and Hugs,
Chrissy

Shots of Espresso This Year: 4

P.S. I am going to try to keep track of shots of espresso and the number of books I read this year. At the moment I am reading A Sweet and Far Thing but it is 800 pages so that is why I don't have that category up yet. Also I will be changing my blog layout VERY soon so look out for that!
